Baby Moon

Fantastic place! My wife and I wanted a small town with fun things to do since it was our baby moon. We explored the small Greek village and would come back and hang out in the pool afterwards just the two of us. It was clean and well stocked and less than 10 minutes from the attractions!

Perfect for our Girls Trip

The house is in a nice quiet neighborhood. Having a pool, jacuzzi and hot tub was nice for relaxing days at the house. All three,as well as the home, were well maintained and clean. Good communication.

Nice Clean Place

This place was in a nice neighborhood, super clean! The online listing I gave 3 stars because it listed the couch as being a bed. It was just a couch. Our ONLY issue with this rental was that the thermostat was controlled remotely by the owner, even though the directions above the thermostat left us in control, asking not to turn it below 67 degrees which we never did. We would come home from a night out to a house that was 78 degrees, which made it difficult to get a good night's sleep. One morning at 6 am I woke up hot, the thermostat was set on 74 degrees, (after I set it to 68 before going to bed). I moved it to 68 again and by 9am it had been reset to 72 degrees. The owner's answer was that he/she wasn't sure if anyone was home or not. Outside of the 10 days of constantly trying to keep the house at a comfortable temperature it was a good stay but because of that, we will not be returning. This is why it was given an overall 3 star rating.
