+: The communication was perfect. From being met by George & Poppy late at night to the WhatsApps with Nikos.We were wow'd by the villa. It had everything we wanted and more. Everything about it was beyond our expectations.The pool area is exceptional. The gardens were beautifully maintained and I particularly loved the range of seating areas around the villa, on different levels. Loved the front porch with its coffee-time setup or I just sat there listening to the cicadas overlooking the olive tree grove and the beautiful evening skies; and I loved the large upper floor balcony area with two large, luxurious sun loungers and amazing panoramic views. There are more!The laundry room was so useful and well placed on the top floor. My sons loved the PS4 and we were able to log into our home accounts for Netflix and Prime Video on the modern TV setup. Broadband was good enough and compensated by having good mobile connectivity in the house and surrounding areas. The showers and bath were great, lots of lovely olive oil based products . I was particularly impressed too with how good the hairdryer was.. even better than mine at home and I was reluctant to leave that behind!We cooked a lot and found everything we needed plus some unexpected surprises from the hosts. I don't want to list them as it's up to the owners to determine what they wish to give as gifts. We were delighted, for example, to find a full bottle of delicious greek olive oil and used it throughout. I thought that I might send Nikos a note for some optional extra cooking items that we looked for e.g. oven gloves. Nothing major missing. Pots and pans were of a great quality and lots of great cooking knives and utensils, plates, glasses of all types and mugs as well as cups. There was a kettle (in constant use), a filter coffee machine and a Nespresso coffee machine as well as an electric toaster.Beds were very clean and comfortable.
-: There were 7 of us so there were more than enough bedrooms with air conditioning but given this year's extraordinary temperatures, Nikos may need to extend the air conditioning to the 2 bedrooms that have fans only. Air conditioning was everywhere else and was fantastic.
