A Great Family Stay
We were a party of 9, ages ranging from 1 to 80+. The property was stunning and the outdoor space particularly offered different areas for people to enjoy. The swimming pool was huge, with plenty of sun loungers around and you had plenty of shaded areas to escape the sun too. Our host, Katerina, was so welcoming and checked in with us on a regular basis, to assist with anything we needed. The property is not that practical to walk to shops/beach, particularly with kids but we took taxis, which took no more than 10 mins to get to the shop, beach and restaurants. Would we go back………in a flash!
