Absolutely recommendable!

Absolutely recommendable! We had a wonderful stay. We were warmly welcomed with regional specialties (wine, olive oil, jam) and felt very comfortable. Fantastic sea view! Atmospherically lit garden in the evening! Lots of seating in the garden! Absolutely recommendable!

Haus im Olivenhain

Das Haus liegt sehr schön uns separat in einem Olivenhain. Es ist ein älteres Haus, das aber grundlegend renoviert und offenbar auch erweitert wurde. Mehrere mächtige Palmen sowie Olivenbäume stehen auf dem Grundstück. Es gibt eine kleine Rasenfläche und viele Blumen, die auch täglich gepflegt werden. Dieser Bewuchs unterscheidet das Ferienhaus von vielen anderen neuen Häusern, wo kaum Pflanzen vorhanden sind, oft sogar Kunstrasen. Die Vermieterin wohnt etwa 50 m entfernt in der Loggia. Sie ist um das Wohl der Gäste sehr bemüht und sehr freundlich, hält sich aber sonst eher im Hintergrund. Eine wunderschöne Terrasse, 2 Balkone und der Pool laden dazu ein, ganze Tage auf dem Grundstück zu verbringen. Es gibt ausreichend Schatten und einen herrlichen Blick auf das Libysche Meer. Wir haben nur eine Geschirrspülmaschine und ausreichend Geschirr vermisst. Wer will im Urlaub schon per Hand abwaschen?

Beautiful View

Christina was a lovely host who made us feel very welcome. The villa is well appointed and exceptionally clean. We felt it lacked some comfortable outside lounge seating.

Abgeschiedenheit und trotzdem alles in der Nähe

Das Haus liegt etwa zehn Autominuten vom nächsten Ort entfernt. Sehr schöne Tavernen und Supermärkte. Es liegt sehr abgeschieden, vollkommene Privatsphäre. Der Pool ist zwar sehr klein aber ausreichend. Die Aussicht ist wunderschön! Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich. Eine kleine idyllische Badebucht mit Sand und Felsvorsprünge ist zu Fuß erreichbar (es geht sehr steil runter und dann wieder sehr steil rauf!).Mit dem Auto nur ein paar Minuten zu fahren. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Wunderschönes Ferienhaus in Südlage

Sehr schönes gepflegtes und sauberes Haus in ruhiger Berglage und tollem Meerblick. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und entspannt. Die Besitzerin kam alle 2 Tage zum frische Wäsche bringen und nach dem Rechten zu schauen. (bei nur 7 Tagen Aufenthalt wäre das nicht unbedingt notwendig gewesen) wer katzenallergisch ist, sollte aufpassen..auf der Terrasse wohnt die Hauskatze, die zum Inventar gehört. Auch wäre ein geländegängiges Auto von Vorteil. Die Strasse zum Haus ist zum Teil unbefestigt.

Très bon séjour !

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour ! La maison est propre et relativement bien équipée. L'extérieur est très agréable avec la piscine (bien que très petite, plutôt un bassin). Une femme de ménage passe tous les deux jours redonner un petit coup de propre et change les serviettes et les draps. Quelques petits "moins" à noter : - L'accès est très compliqué, prévoyez une voiture avec un bon moteur :) - Le principe de climatisation est un peu compliqué à gérer : toutes les fenêtres de la maison et la porte doivent être fermées pour pouvoir l'utiliser > Difficile à gérer si une personne veut se coucher plus tôt. - Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de lave vaisselle (et de micro ondes) - Nous avons eu 2 coupures d'électricité de plusieurs heures lors de notre séjour
