We were made welcome as soon as we arrived. A food “basket” was waiting upon our arrival which was plenty for the 8 of us until we could go shopping the next day. The property was very spacious and clean. Helen the cleaner came in every 2/3 days to clean the Villa, change beds and towels. We had a fantastic stay and was made to feel welcome from the owner as soon as we arrived. Such a beautiful island with lots to see. Would definitely go back.

Top Aufenthalt

Der Gastgeber war durchweg zuvorkommend und hat uns sogar zum Empfang einen ersten kleinen Einkauf spendiert. Um jedes Anliegen kümmerte er sich direkt. Das Haus ist sehr schön und die Umgebung ruhig. Ohne Auto geht es nicht. Wenn man die abgelegene Lage jedoch mag, können wir das Haus nur weiter empfehlen.

Prachtige tijd in Skouloufia

Fantastische woning, met een geweldige service. Eigenaar was top, alles was meer dan in orde. We zijn 's avonds laat toegekomen in de villa en er stonden pizza's klaar, er was ook een hele resem aan eetwaren aanwezig zodat we zelfs de volgende ochtend alles hadden voor een lekker ontbijt. Ook de cleaning service was op en top in orde. Er werd aan al onze wensen voldoen. Zeker een villa die op alle vlakken uitstekend is.

Great House

Wonderful house - great outside areas. Nice village, very small but has both terverna and playground. The mountains and near by other villlages are nice to visit. Perfect place to stay if you want to relax and make small trips. Beach in near by big town is also fine 👍
