We really enjoyed our stay at Ellie Villa. The kitchen was especially great. The pool is bigger than the pictures, and the village is charming. We recommend Giannis’s tavern, and the Greek bakery in the nearby village.

Beautiful villa with fantastic pool
Spent a wonderful week at this villa and the children absolutely loved the pool, the pictures don’t do it justice. Villa was a good size, plenty of space for 2 families sharing (4 Adults and 5 children in total). Evmorfia, the host was brilliant and was quick to reply to questions.

Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt zu 100%
Die Villa ist für 8-10 Personen optimal. Alle 5 Zimmer haben den gleichen Standart. Gerade, wenn man nur mit einer Gruppe Erwachsener unterwegs ist, ist das wichtig und nicht immer so. Die gesamte Anlage und das Haus verfügt wirklich Alles und man vermisst nichts. Nervig sind die 3-4 Hunde des Nachbarn, die sehr häufig und sogar nachts ständig am Kleffen sind.
