Quiet retreat close to beaches
The house was really spacious with three big bedrooms (with A/C) and 2 small ones (with fans). It's located in a quiet and very private neighborhood. We found the kitchen well stocked for a family of 7. The property sits at the top of a pretty steep hill which can be reached within less than 10 minutes from the bus stop (#13). There are four nice beaches in easy walking distance (about 15 minutes) and a small super market near the bus stop.
Costas (owner) always responded promptly to any questions we had and was super accommodating when we asked if our niece would be able to stay with us for a few days. He also arranged for Costas (manager) to meet us at the bus stop upon arrival to transport our luggage up the hill. We thought that was extremely thoughtful. Also, when the power went out during a storm, he was so helpful in resolving the problem.
We had 3 main issues:
1. Two of the bedrooms didn't have A/C, which turned out to be quite challenging despite the fans that were placed in each of those rooms.
2. Most of the 6 bathrooms had tiny showers - one without a shower curtain.
3. There was only 1 house key and 1 remote for the gate. Since we were 7 adults, we often split up into couples/groups and did things independently. Juggling who gets to bring the key/remote proved at times a bit difficult which could have been avoided with a second set of both. Also, once the gate starts closing there is no stopping it, so be careful if you have little children or happen to park your car there.
Despite these issues we really enjoyed our time there and would highly recommend it.
