As a family group of five adults and three small children aged three and under we could not have hoped for a better property. We wanted to have a very relaxed week and so it was not important to us that we weren't in the main tourist area because what we got in return was just what we wanted. Mario's place has a very spacious, attractive outdoor area with a fantastic pool. We liked the fact it had a shallow end with platform, perfect for the little ones and a 2m deep end for adults. Other than sleeping and preparing food, we spent all our time outside. It was well equipped with outdoor dining furniture, sun loungers, parasols for shade and a BBQ area. The interior was equipped with all we needed and very spacious. Mario himself was an excellent host. He was always very responsive and quick to reply to our questions before we arrived and for the duration of our stay. On arrival he took time to show us the local area and even waited until we did our first supermarket shop. He could not have been more helpful. Would be great to think all hosts were as good as this!
