The perfect getaway
This gorgeous villa has a veranda and pool that overlooks a beautiful, olive-tree-planted valley with a sea view. In the morning there are birds singing, in the afternoon, cicadas and the tinkle of sheep bells. Everything was perfect: the setting, the beautifully-decorated house, and George is the most kind, thoughtful, and accommodating host. We were four ladies celebrating our birthdays, staying for just a few days with our kids of various ages, and everything was absolutely delightful. Perfect for kids and families or larger groups. All I can say is our stay was too brief. Next time, we'll stay for two weeks! Thank you George!
