We had a wonderful short visit to the island. The cottage is lovely with plenty of charm and stylish touches; we loved the peaceful valley setting. We explored the area and found some open tavernas in the nearby village which is a short walk away. Our visit was early season, so we were able to do some of the walking trails. Abi was very kind and helpful and recommended places to visit and walks to do.

We stayed here with our two children age 15 and 11. Relaxing and tranquil location. Pool and terrace area are fabulous for some quiet reading time and an afternoons doze. You could hear a pin drop first thing in the morning too. Very peaceful spot. Manganos is about a 15 minute walk up the hill and has two little supermarkets which were fine for us and four restaurants. Our favourite place to eat was at Alaties Beach Bar but we had to book 3-4 days in advance. Reginas boat hire in Fiskardo is a must do, a visit to Assos too. We managed to enjoy playing tennis at the stunning Emelisse Hotel for €20 per hour. Favourite beach for us was Emplissi which is about a 10 minute drive away. Get there for 1030 to pick your spot. All beaches we tried were clean with beautiful clear water and brilliant snorkelling. 30-35c and clear blue skies for two weeks. Lucky us. Thank you to Nick and Abi who were very helpful from start to finish. Would highly recommend. ☀️☀️

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful, traditional property. As a family of four with two young children it was spacious and cool and the swimming pool was perfect for the hot weather. The property is very private and the valley and sea views spectacular. Would highly recommend.

Myself and my partner came out for 10 nights for a wedding. We were greeted with a bottle of Prosecco which was a nice touch. Overall the cottage is nice, it has a nice authentic charm to it. A couple of draw backs: quite dark (downstairs especially), upstairs has okay lighting however due to where the sun hits the area you get ready in is very dark (my partner got ready in the hallway). Also there isn’t a holder for the shower head which I found a tad odd. Sadly our trip here came to quite a strange and unfortunate end. The morning we left, around 8:30 we were “greeted” by the homeowners. We had some friends stay over the night before we left and had visitors frequent the villa quite regularly (as you would expect being out for a wedding). The gentleman was nice enough to us however the lady who owns the villa was shockingly rude. We were accosted and demanded money from as apparently we didn’t book the whole villa, we only booked for 2 people, and therefore we had to pay for our friends who had stayed the night before and they wanted money for towels... We were also advised that the neighbours had mentioned how many people were coming and going, which now makes it feel like we were being spyed on for some reason. It was odd that if the homeowners had a issue midweek they didn’t come speak to us to advise. They also tried to make us clean up, we left it clean, but I mean fully clean - with scrubbers and bleach etc. surely that isn’t the guests responsibility, I’d class myself as a very clean person (almost ocd) and it felt like they wanted any excuse to “moan”. All in all it left quite a bitter taste in our mouth. I’d have given 4 stars if it wasn’t for the unfortunate end to our trip.
