Guest Reviews
- Carole (9/5): - L’emplacement, le calme, l’aspect très relaxe de la décoration. On se sent bien à cet endroit. Le manque d’équipement dans la cuisine mais on s’est quand même débrouillés.
- C (9/5): - Katerina and Maria were really excellent, they take such good care. We had some issue with one noisy neighbour (none of it the owners fault, of course; it just can happen) but Katerina acted extremely swift, made a change of bungalow possible on very short notice and all was good.
The welcome package in the fridge is very thoughtful. Nearby Palechora was laid back and easy to reach, with plenty of restaurants. The garden and plants are beautiful and add much to the atmosphere. We don't give a 10 out f 10 as we had noise from building works close by and also more noise from the street than we had anticipated. This should be only temporary. Otherwise all is lovely, in a peaceful location with wonderful views.
- Christoph (9/5): Perfekte Erholung! - Wir waren das 2. Mal dort. Das sagt eigentlich alles, Es ist ein Paradies der Ruhe direkt am Meer. Ich bin jeden Morgen die Paar Schritte zum Strand gelaufen, um meinen Kaffee am Strand zu trinken, einfach schön. Es ist ruhig und man findet im Haus alles, was man braucht. Die Küchenzeile ist gut ausgestattet und es gibt ein Welcome-Paket. Supermärkte sind schnell mit dem Auto erreicht, ca. 4-5- Minuten und in Paleochora findet man alles was man braucht. Würde jederzeit wiederkommen. Alles bestens. Das Gute ist, man hat immer eine Ansprechperson, die sofort reagiert und sich kümmert, von daher gibt es wirklich nichts zu beanstanden.
- Caterina (9/5): Stylisch und gefühlt mitten in der Natur - Stylisch eingerichtet und grosszügig geschnitten. Unser Highlight war die Terrasse mit Pool und der Blick in die unverbaute Natur. Die Gartenanlage ist sehr schön und es gibt einen Sichtschutz zu den angrenzenden Terrassen. Man ist zwar umgeben von Natur, hört aber tagsüber Strassen- und Baulärm und abends bellende Hunde. Im April hat in der Umgebung kein Restaurant geöffnet und zum nächsten Supermarkt gibt es keinen Gehweg, d.h. man muss überall mit dem Auto hinfahren. War für uns nicht schlimm, ist aber vielleicht hilfreich zu wissen.
- Radim (10/5): -
- Pamela (9/5): We enjoyed this lovely apartment with sea view and beach access. - This was a wonderful place to stay for 5 nights. The view of the water, private swimming pool, lovely apartment with useable kitchen all made for a very comfortable and enjoyable experience. The beaches (both rock and sand) are an easy 3 min walk away. The handmade items were unique and delightful. The host was friendly and responsive. Paleochora is a short drive away. Nothing.
- Jean (9/5): A beautiful place to stay. The staff couldn’t be more helpful. - The pool although the weather was so bad we didn’t use it. The nearby beach. The modern and carefully thought out interior. The staff and service were excellent. The floor of the shower room did not dry so we had to take our socks off every time we went to the loo.
- Kelsi (10/5): Amazing place, even in November! - Amazing property! We stayed here in November, the villa provided wind protection and sun so we enjoyed some lovely days. There are beautiful beaches to explore and a short drive into town. The hosts are friendly and generous, they even upgraded our villa since we were the only people there. Highly recommend!
- heiko (9/5): -
- Helena (9/5): Ljuvlig lyx alldeles nära underbara stränder. - Snyggaste stället! Allt väl genomtänkt o snyggt ner i minsta detalj. Finns både diskmaskin o tvättmaskin. Lyxigt med egen pool. Bara äng innan stranden, stenstrand rakt nedanför men sand runt hörnet. Underbart. Generöst med tillgång både till strand och pool och duschhanddukar. Sängarna hade behövt en bäddmadrass. Men för att vara grekisk så är det hög standard.
- Jean-Pierre (10/5): Super séjour en famille. - Nous avons passées 6 jours dans cet endroit exceptionnel ! La villa est extrêmement bien équipée (four, lave vaisselle, machine à laver), bien décorée (l’espace extérieur est parfaitement aménagé) et la literie très confortable ! La piscine est un plus bien que nous nous sommes surtout baignés aux plages situées à cent mètres (une de sable et une de galet) et très proche de Paleochora (5min en voiture). Cet endroit est vraiment parfait pour le repos et la tranquillité ! Merci à Katerina pour les conseils donnés par ses messages (avec beaucoup d'humour !!!). Egalement un grand merci à Maria pour ses visites quotidiennes et sa grande disponibilité.
Un super séjour avec notre famille (4 adultes et 2 enfants). Tous sont ravis de leur séjour. Bien préciser qu'en cas de nuages persistants il faut actionner un interrupteur pour avoir de l'eau chaude.
Les panneaux solaires préfèrent le soleil !!!
Mais c'est un détail, l'eau froide est bonne pour le corps !!!!!!!
- Aljaz (10/5): -
- janet (10/5): Wonderful - Absolutely delightful. Definitely will go again. Location perfect. 3 good restaurants nearby. Private path to beach. Very stylish and comfortable. Maria and team went above and beyond. Could not fault them. Beds so comfortable. All perfect x Nothing
- Steven (10/5): The perfect luxury villa at a good price - Amazing oasis of calm. The blue flag beach just in front of the property is quiet and gorgeous. The villa is perfect!
- Milena (10/5): -
- vulej (10/5): -
- Lumos Chen (8/5): -
- Patrick (8/5): - Tolle Lage. Super Service. Sehr sauber. Putz- sowie Handtuch- und mehrfachere Müllwechsel top. Nette Gastgeber.
Bei Wünschen und Fragen immer kurzfristig zu erreichen. Organisation war sehr 👍. Für 2 Paare ist der Bungalow für 4 Personen - unseres Erachtens nach - nicht geeignet. Zwar gibt es die obere Etage mit dem großen Raum, der die Küche, die Sitzgelegenheit und das Doppelbett mit separatem Badezimmer mit Blick auf die Terrasse und Pool bietet, das 2. Zimmer befindet sich aber im Souterrain und hat ebenfalls ein eigenes Bad.
Beide Paare haben keine Privatsphäre, da die beiden Zimmer durch eine Wendeltreppe verbunden sind, aber nicht separiert werden können (durch eine Schiebtür, Vorhang etc.).
- Okan (9/5): Alles Top außer der Pool. - Die Lage. Das Poolwasser hat unangenehm gerochen. So das wir diesen nicht genutzt haben.
- Amanatidou (10/5): -
- Suzanne (10/5): Two weeks absolute peace and quiet - Spotlessly clean, lovely quiet location, comfortable with all amenities you could want Didn’t like our two weeks is ended
- Stavros (10/5): - Had a great stay at Akra Grammeno! Just a few steps from the beach, and a few minutes drive from Palaiochora and other nearby beautiful beaches. The room exceeded our expectations :) Highly recommended.
- Ioannis (10/5): -
- Michaela (10/5): -
- yohann (10/5): -
- Harris (10/5): -
- Annemarie (10/5): Traumhaft! - Es war einfach traumhaft! Zwei wirklich schöne Strände, tolle Taverne (in unmittelbarer Nähe) und die Unterkunft ist einfach wunderschön! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
- Emmanouil (10/5): Εξαιρετική - Ήταν όλα εξαιρετικά! Όλα. Ο χώρος, η καθαριότητα, η εξυπηρέτηση, ο εξωτερικός χώρος με την πισίνα, ο εξοπλισμός του δωματίου, ακόμα και ο προσανατολισμός. Θερμά συγχαρητήρια -
- valeria (10/5): -
- Mario (10/5): Endroit exceptionnel ! - Nous avons passées nos 2 dernières nuits en Crète dans cet endroit exceptionnel ! La villa est extrêmement bien équipée (four, lave vaisselle, machine à laver), bien décorée (l’espace extérieur est parfaitement aménagé) et la literie très confortable ! La piscine est suffisamment grande et profonde (et exposée au soleil quasi toute la journée). Les villas sont situées à quelques pas de deux superbes plages (une de sable et une de galet) et très proche de Paleochora (5min en voiture) et 2/3 tavernes accessibles à pied!
Bref cet endroit est vraiment parfait pour le repos et la tranquillité !
Nous reviendrons sans doute ! La salle de bain : trop petite, et aucun rangement, ni même espace pour poser la trousse de toilette!
Toilette bas, douche collée au toilette, et seulement un évier
Nous comprenons évidement l’agencement, car elle était adapté PMR, et nous trouvons ça super. Pour le standing et le prix de la villa, nous aurions juste aimé être prévenu ou au moins la voir sur les photos lors de la réservation pour éviter une petite déception lors de notre arrivée!
- Gianluca (10/5): Incantevole - Villa molto bene arredata, posizione stupenda e pulizia perfetta Niente
- Vasil (9/5): -
- Maren (10/5): Perfekt zum entspannen - Wir haben uns unglaublich wohl und durch die Gastgeberin gut betreut gefühlt. Wir hatten eine fantastische Zeit mit eigenem Pool und ganz viel Ruhe in wunderschönen Umgebung. Nur 5 Minuten mit dem Auto von der Unterkunft gibt es einen ganz süßen Ort mit allem, was man braucht.
- Kateryna (10/5): Exceptional - A quite private space with own pool. 2 floors with 2 bedrooms. Clean and cozy. 1 minute to the stone beach. Very friendly staff, they even organised birthday decorations
- Ioannis (9/5): We want to come back next year. - The peace offering the place. The house was functional and furnished with taste. Nothing on particular. The only issue sometimes there was electrical short cuts but this was not depending on the house but to the network.
- Frederic (10/5): Stunning location, perfect property all round perfect stay - The location is breathtaking and close to all amenities, the property itself has been done to a very high standard and instantly makes you feel comfortable, the space is Perfect for family’s or couples. We didn’t want to leave.
- Stergios (10/5): Absolutely Amazing - Absolutely amazing!! Clean!! Modern! The views are heavenly!! Surrounded by a number of perfect beaches some sandy some with rock!!
- Helen (10/5): Perfect relaxing beach stay - Spacious, stylish and very comfortable and clean. The gardens around the villas are also beautiful.
The terrace and pool is good size and feels private. Katerina was the perfect host 😃The location is perfect. So many good options for dinner in town and great lunch at Ammos beach bar.
Will return. Not much not to like.
- Cornel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lægdsgaard (10/5): Magical! - The place was magical! Fantastic location, clean and beautiful house, the sweetest host who made us feel so welcome! We will for sure come back.
- Robert (10/5): Tranquility personified! - Everything about the villa, its location, surrounding flora and fauna, wildlife (birds, butterflies etc) and service were excellent.
Special thanks to Katerina for creating this amazing place to stay and Maria for looking after us so well.
- Steve (10/5): the perfect seaside apartment. - location is amazing. unobstructed sea view. grounds well manicured. amazing pool and patio. the hosts katerina and maria are amazing and provide great service. parking is easy. minutes to great restaurants and shopping. nothing.
- Zhuang (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gerard (9/5): all good, very nice place. - All good, met a freindly host All good. Note that the pool is unheated.
- Sheryl (10/5): Water was fixed quickly. Fabulous service and facilities. Very relaxing and perfect interior design! - Fantastic villa beautiful Hot water initially struggled to come through.
- Janice (10/5): We really enjoyed this place. Beautiful location, sandy beach on one side and a pebble beach on the other. Blue flag be - Privacy of a villa but with excellent hotel servicing. Towels and beach towels replaced every 2 days. All toiletries supplied. Bedding changed every 4 days. Pool cleaned and tested regularly. Well equipped and in a beautiful location. A great get away from it all holiday. Nothing to dislike
- Bohmart (9/5): Very nice location, private, pool is a great feature but wished it was more kid friendly - Location, great living space Wish the pool was bigger and not as deep. It would have been better for my 8 year old daughter.
- Stephen (9/5): Superb -
- Kerry (10/5): Luxurious villa with private pool with a choice of two beaches a few steps away - Beautifully styled and designed with high quality furnishings and decor. Fabulous private pool. Nothing
- Daniel (10/5): Super relaxing, private pool and close to the beach - Excellent location for a super relaxing stay, the property was really well equipped, super clean and having a private pool was such a nice treat! Cannot recommend this place enough! Nothing! It’s perfect!
- Siobhan (10/5): A gorgeous villa with some great restaurants within walking distance and a 5 minute drive into town - The villa was great and a great place to relax with its own pool and a 2 minute walk to a quiet sandy beach with a couple of beach bars for handy refreshments. The location is far from a lot of the main tourist spots but lots of nice beaches to visit and boat trips. We didn’t mind as we wanted a relaxing holiday so it was perfect for what we wanted.
- Gina (10/5): Exceptional - It’s a beautiful apartment with a lovely backyard and close to the beach. The beds were big and comfortable, and the downstairs was so spacious. It was really quiet and relaxing. Katerina and Maria were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed going to the nearby sandy bay each day! Something minor - the pool is too deep to stand.
- Freya (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ben (10/5): Exceptional - It's the perfect place for a relaxed getaway. The Greek island holidays you remember are available here...
The villa is so well thought out...views over the sea, the angles of the building and pool locations maximise the sunshine...
Really quiet location on the Island but you're 5 minutes drive from town which offers multiple supermarkets and importantly, an excellent family run bakery (Vakakis Family) which is worth a number of visits No complaints
- Daniel (10/5): We are a couple who stayed for a week. The property was everything and more and the location was paradise - Comfortable, modern, great location and staff were excellent. Nothing
- Dimitrios (10/5): Exceptional -
- Claudio (10/5): Beautiful villas, conveniently located, lovely people - The AGB villas are very conveniently located, walking distance to two very different beaches (pebbles on one side, sand on the other) and a very "local" tavern with lovely staff and customers.
Sunbeds and parasol are €10 per day, crystal clear water and simple, great food meters away.
It is also a short drive away from other incredible small beaches (Kryos).
The villas are very well equipped, furnished with great taste, have a comfy and large bed and a very relaxing outdoor space for breakfast, lunches, drinks, dinners ... To give a touch more privacy I would extend the outdoor side bamboo walls by a meter or just better box the external shower
- Delia (10/5): Exceptional - The location, the welcome, it was absolutely perfect, I highly recommand !
- Jessica (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aldo (10/5): Dream place - Location, everything’s working, amenities Nothing
- Gloria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marc (10/5): Amazing communications from a delightful host made this visit a truly memorable one. - Perfectly situated close to two beaches back to back and very different - a great pool to start and end the day with and facilities to eat at home or grab a quick poolside snack. Highly appointed and really well decorated. Noise from neighbours was at times a bit unthinking but this isn’t the owners fault. Did feel like guests were visiting and being less than neighbourly.
- Jacques (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful house, very well decorated.
Maria, Stelios and Katerina will for sure make everything possible to make the stay unforgettable. ...
- Michael (10/5): As good as it gets!!!!! - Never had such a wonderful and special Place to stay in Greece. Every little detail was just perfect.
- Eliza (10/5): I love the house and the location - Location close to beach and good local restaurant, not too crowdy. Very beautiful house and nice garden. Intimate terrace with private pool. I love the place Nothing
- Joao (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic stay, everything was great! All amenities, the beach just steps away, and a village very close by. Highly recommended, 5 stars, the best option to stay in southern Crete!
- Catia (8/5): Lovely for a short stay - It was comfortable and very clean.
Access to the beach was great.
A very well thought out designed property. Unfortunately everything is only accessible by car, and the closest town Paleochora is very busy and congested nowhere to park.
- Jan (10/5): We had an amazing stay. We would reccomend everyone to come to this beautiful house. -
- Ronnie (10/5): Beautiful and modern villa with very attentive owner / manager. - Great location and easy access to beaches.
- Alanna (10/5): Exceptional - Oh my god, BEST STAY EVER. This place felt like the absolute lap of luxury. Very tasteful decor, extremely comfortable bed, ambient lighting, well stocked kitchen,.comfortable sofa, washing machine, dishwasher and huge TV (not that we spent much time inside!).
Lovely staff - Maria was so welcoming and checked in on us throughout the stay. Contact with Katerina was very easy and she responded very quickly. We had a bottle of wine, cheese and snacks to welcome us. The pool and outside lounge area was just perfect. Katerina was so helpful and obliging, allowing us an early check in and very late check out (when we couldn't bear to leave!).
The nearby beaches are very handy, not the best we have been to in Greece but close by and clean, with lovely clear water and not too windy.
About 5-10mins drive to Paleochora so would be best to have a rental car. Paleochora itself is a lovely town with lots of choices to eat and drink, as well as a lovely beach and very friendly people.
We absolutely loved our stay and can't wait to come back again someday!
- Clara (10/5): Luxury Off the beaten track - A little piece of heaven ! Besides that, Katerina, the host is very kind and helpful! Nothing!
- Marfa (10/5): Exceptional - Simply wonderful, seaview from the terrace and the bed, everything is very clean and tasteful, the host responds very quickly, we had great time in April!
- Wagner (10/5): A perfect stay in Palaiochora - My wife and I had an amazing time in the Akra Grammeno Villas. The place is located in a very beautiful place near Palaichora.
The apartments are big, very well maintained, very clean, with new equipment and decorated with great taste. The host Katerina with the help of Kiki did everything possible to help us and make our stay perfect.
We will come back there for sure! Nothing. Everything worked perfectly.
- Evgen (10/5): Amazing place - The location of the villas is outstanding - just 300m from sand and stone beaches that were not really crowded in the end of September. The place is a modern, cozy, well-equipped with everything you need for your comfortable stay. The owner Katerina was super sweet and helpful. My wife an I will definitely have the best memories because of this place. We would definitely come back here again. Nothing!
- Gerard (10/5): All to a very high standard - An amazing place, a minute to the beach. Well appointed with a great kitchen. Very comfortable, great terrace dining. Attentive hosts. Lots of food supplies and welcome goodies.
All as advertised. Team went out of their way to greet us. Self check-in would be useful. We had building work going on for a couple of days-this was accompanied by many apologies but somehow not foreseen.
- Eyal (10/5): Exceptional - Great house right on the beach. Every thing is well designed and in high quality.
- Margaret (10/5): Exceptional - Katerina has created this beautiful set of apartments with love, passion and excellent attention to detail throughout. From the massive, super comfy bed to the luxurious fluffy towels, everything was of a very high standard. We have stayed in many places in Greece, but this just has to be one of the best! In a great location, away from the crowds, but with 5 different places to eat and drink just a stones throw away - just perfect for a peaceful, relaxing holiday in a very beautiful part of Crete. Thank you Katerina, for being such a great and welcoming host and for the excellent communication both before and during our stay. We will certainly return again soon! Absolutely nothing!
- Tommy (10/5): Absolutely fantastic, lovely modern accommodation in a great location, we will be booking again. - For us as a family of 7 the location and accommodation was perfect, right next to a small peninsula with a sandy beach and a stoney beach, if it was windy one side just head to the other side. Great little snack bar for lunch and a very short 3 min drive to the main town.
We have been visiting Paleochora for 15 years and this accommodation is the best by far.
- Anabella (10/5): Magical place - Wow what a magical place - we loved our house, the pool and the two beautiful beaches just 50 meter away! Katerina was an amazing, warm and welcoming host! Thank you for all Katerina - it was a true pleasure staying at your lovely property! We will be back ! Nothing

- Favimun (9/5): MODERN TRANQUILITY BY THE SEA - The design of the villa is pretty nice and modern and the house is fully equipped with everything you may need. The location is awesome, close to two different types of beaches. The property owner attention was awesome. The cleaning inside the villa has some room for improvement.
- Kh (10/5): Gorgeous jewel within walking distance of the beach - This is a jewel of a place - beautifully and thoughtfully designed with impeccable hosts focused on enabling the best vacation possible. We rented the two bedroom which has a nice sized basement kids area for our 15 and 11 year olds. Wi-Fi is excellent , beds are comfortable and outside area is gorgeous. Nothing - we are coming back for sure
- Léone (9/5): Would come again - Great place, 5min from Paleochora, and 1min walking distance from two nice and clean beaches.
Everything to spend a great vacation. Peaceful, quiet and confortable. Very nice and accommodating manager.
- Tiina (10/5): Exceptional - The location was nice and quiet, perfect Villa for relaxation
- Katarzyna (10/5): Even better than expected! -
- Thorsten (10/5): Wonderful place in a nature setting and great hosts! - It‘s a stylish, very spacious and luxurious place in a very quiet neighborhood outside of Palaiachora. The terrace and pool are just a dream, and an empty beach just a min away. We were also much impressed by the prompt and friendly service by Katerina and Kiki. If you are bound for some great accommodation in a quiet area, this is the place to go! Nothing, actually!
- Melanie (10/5): It was a perfect stay! - The locations stunning! In reality, the sea view is even more impressive than in the pictures. The communication before arrival and during the stay with Katerina is very friendly and uncomplicated. The staff on site are very warm and helpful. Everything was perfect! Nothing
- Wallace (10/5): Exceptional - Staff were super friendly and really went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and well looked after. The property is clean, modern, spacious, and situated close to the beach.
- Janette (10/5): Quiet restful holiday in a beautiful location - Beautiful location overlooking the beach
- Sandra (9/5): Superb -
- Richard (10/5): Exceptional -
- Maria (10/5): Excellent choice for the discerning traveler! - We wanted to explore the southern part of Crete and found this amazing beachfront gem. It took about 1hr30mins from Chania airport to traverse the picturesque winding roads that lead to the property but it was most definitely worth the escape!
Katerina was exceptionally welcoming communicating before our arrival and with her team member Kiki meeting us at the property.
As we drove up, we were delighted to see the luxurious structure and white gravel parking lot. The facilities are beautifully built with so much attention to fine details that made us feel at home. A welcome apero and a lovely seating area outside was a delightful welcome that set the tone to our wonderful stay. You can see with the decors and amenities of the property that they worked hard to create such a beautiful retreat for their guests.
Although the property is quite new, we immediately felt relaxed and happy. We had everything we needed for our stay and grocery shops were nearby.
+ Bathroom: spacious with good natural lighting. Fixtures are nice and such a plus to see a bidet as this is not very common in Europe! High quality towels and free soaps, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. Baskets to organize your things and hampers for used towels were a nice touch. Blow drier also available.
+ Bed: comfortable and with appropriate beddings for the season. The pillows are good too! We appreciated also their thoughtfulness to add mood and reading lighting. Bedside outlet plugs were available too.
+ Cooling/Heating: There’s an A/C unit which was sufficient and the ceiling fan worked well too. There’s a small fireplace but we didn’t use it.
+ Lighting: Although sometimes confusing to use the switches, the lighting was sufficient and paid attention to areas that added a subtle ambience throughout the room and even outside the property. Lots of natural light during the day so you don’t really need to worry about this. we loved our stay and can’t say we didn’t like certain things. As mentioned, this is quite a new property and I’m sure the team will continuously improve as they operate. They were very gracious to ask for constructive feedback which I appreciate very much coming from a hospitality background.
A few things to consider:
- The main door lock would sometimes get “stuck” but we were lucky that someone helped us open the door.
- Since we stayed off- season, it is understandable that the weather will be how it was. we were lucky to always have sunshine but at night, the howling winds can be heard through the doors. I’m sure there’s some great solutions for resolving soundproofing.
- A (10/5): Stylish, gracious and beautifully situated - Our stylish studio had a well-equipped kitchen and a light, airy feel with colorful kilims setting off the white. The terrace with small private pool was lovely (though very close to the neighbouring unit). The property is brand new and the grounds have been lovingly planted with trees, shrubs and flowers. We liked being away from touristy Paleochora but close enough for easy access to restaurants and provisions, and loved being steps from two beautiful beaches! There was a nice bottle of wine, cheese, snacks and a bowl of fruit waiting for us on arrival. Nice bath products too! Katerina was a kind and very attentive hostess, though we never met in person. She provided local recommendations and even checked in on us the morning after a storm to make sure everything was fine. You can see (and hear) the terraces and pools of the other units to some extent, and vice versa, but they will be more private when the plants have grown up. We were there during a period of very strong winds and the door next to the bed howled so loudly we slept with earplugs!
- Lieke (10/5): Exceptional - Super Nice, beautiful house. Very close to the sea, brand new and with all the facilities you need.
- Cacilda (10/5): Amazing place with great location - Amazing place, very well equipped, with lovely views as shown in the photos. The host is engaging, nice and responsive. We where welcomed personally, shown the house and an explanation about some features and equipments, and local tips. Some very nice food was in the fridge - water, wine, cheese, fruits, etc. There are detergents and capsules for the use of the machines (washing clothes and dishes, coffee). There is complimentary olive oil, vinegar, salt, peper, sugar, stevia... The pool area is great to be in, water temperature 25°, with lots of sun and some shade, very well furnished and with a good shower - great view of the garden and of the sea. The beach right in front of the villas is very beautiful and peaceful, we had special shoes to go in the rocks so we enjoyed it a lot. If you turn towards the sunset, 3 minutes walking on the path, you will find the sand beach of Grammeno, with sunbeds, showers and beach bar/restaurant. All in all a great place, with great location and definetly would come back again!!
