A great little complex that was clean, friendly & far better than the star rating would suggest. We booked as a short-term option as we had a few days before friends arrived and we moved to a villa - & were pleasantly impressed by how nice this place was. We had the three bedroom 'villa' but the 2 bedroom apts looked nice too. The pool was great & the bar was easy going & good value

The best thing about Villa Elea was its setting. It is in a gorgeous private garden with several other apartments, easy parking, and a private bar/cafe run by very friendly and helpful owners. We had very small children and they were safe and happy playing in the garden, with a well-secured, clean shared swimming pool full of toys, garden with nice grass, shady olive trees, fruit and vegetable trees grown by the cafe owners, and several cheeky little cats! A lovely, homely vibe, we would come here again. Local beach is very family friendly and a five min walk away. Inside, the villa was comfortable enough. It has rather basic shower/bath facilities (not full size baths). It is not fully air conditioned; there are two units, one in each of the upstairs bedrooms. Nevertheless it was quite cool, but just to let you know, if you need to use the third, downstairs bedroom this room remains pretty hot. The staircase up to the first floor has open iron bannisters and big gaps between the wooden stairs, leading to a mezzanine floor with balcony which also has large gaps. I would not recommend staying here with a toddler as you will not be able to relax! We also were under the impression from this site that the property had a washing machine - it does not, but the cafe owners will wash clothes for 5 euros per load and are very helpful. Despite our continual stairs vigilance (!!) we had a really lovely time. We would certainly return to the location and the villa was comfortable and reasonable price in a truly gorgeous setting.
