A beautifully situated and wonderfully welcoming villa
We were new to Pelion and to the property but we will definitely be back! The villa was beautifully kept and Stathis and his team had clearly gone out of their way to make it comfortable. The bedrooms were lovely, the efficient air con and the insect screens on the windows made a Northern European family very happy and the layout of the whole villa worked perfectly. As others have said the views are stunning. Everyone we met was kind and friendly but Stathis really took this to a new level. He was always on hand with advice and he went far above and beyond what I would expect to make our stay memorable. The private dining at home made a special occasion very special indeed and if we had been there longer his other ideas for outings and foraging/cooking in the woods sounded lovely. Next time! The children loved the cooling off pool which was maintained every day and we will all remember the sailing trip for a long time.

Fantastic views and service
Spent nine days at Villa Dioni with my wife, and two other adults. Really enjoyed the villa, especially the views, and in fact spent a few days more or less totally at the villa as we liked it so much - used the grill to prepare the dinner etc. The service was excellent, thanks to the host, Dimitri, who gave us valuable guidance and provided assistance in the few problems that we encountered. The whole of Pelion peninsula was fabulous, the nature was beautiful, and the beaches (Milopotamos, Kala Nera, Afissos) extremely nice. Liked also the morning hikes around the village and along the narrow-gauge railway. The only minor problems were that the 3Gb limit of the Wifi was used up quite quickly (Dimitri provided help also here) and that the village of Agios Georgios does not have any shops, so a car is necessary (we had one so no real problem)

Romantisches Häuschen mit umwerfendem Ausblick
Nach dem abenteuerlichen Anfahrtsweg wird man mit einem umwerfenden Ausblick belohnt. Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen...selbst der Kühlschrank war mit regionalen Produkten gefüllt. Alles war extrem sauber und mit Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Wir haben uns sehr,sehr wohl gefühlt. Vielen Dank für alles!

Everything was perfect
We spent one month in Greece and our best souvenir is our week in the house of Stathis in Pelion ! The house and the pool are great, the view is amazing and you will be able to explore all the peninsula : charming villages very close, great hikes and wonderful beaches on the east coast... Stathis was very nice, giving good advices and making his best for us to spend good holidays ! We'll come back !

Great house, great Pelio, great holidays
We rent this house for 2 weeks in July 2017 with my wife and 2 young children (3 and a half and 18 months / years old). The house is exactly as described on the site, and even better: it is very nicely built and decorated, very well equipped and easy to live, with many nice details. The outside is nicely designed, with many spots to rest or play, and the view from the garden on the gulf is wonderful (beautiful sunsets). Also there is a vegetable garden on the back from which we enjoyed tomatoes, zucchinis and cucumbers almost on a daily basis. The little pool is wonderful for 2 young kids: it is 80cm deep, and both were able to touch the bottom with their feet, which made them very confident about being in the water – but one has to be very careful: it is still a pool and we had to watch them continuously... And for the adults, it is a great way to refresh yourself after a hot day at the beach or on a trip! We moved around the Pelio a lot, and I miss this region: it is beautiful and unexpected, which made our holidays quite special: you can spend the day on a hot beach and then have a dinner in a cool mountain village, under a huge plane tree. Of course, I have to mention the warm welcome of Stathis and his father Dimitri, who gave us numerous tips and good advice – in perfect English and French. When we arrived the kitchen was well stocked with quality food (olive oil, tea, jam, pasta, feta, fruits…), and we were given a wonderful homemade guide on Pelio (I don’t think there is another host in Greece who made such a great guide about his region!). It was hard to leave Villa Dioni !
