- Location, location, location (!!) right on the sea (with the only road going through Vathi in between.) - The house has ultimately everything you need, however ... see negative points. - The kitchen is well equipped. - Nice fruit bowl at check-in by Chrisa's representative, Nora, since she herself was unable to attend. - In the terribly cold living room - at the instigation of Chrisa, the owner - with external help, a blanket and from the upper floor radiators on the very narrow spiral staircase (not suitable for fat and old people, should be mentioned in the advertising - fortunately are we stayed young and "turnable" in the 70s 😉) down to make it more homely. - Vathi is a nice little place with a port, small beaches and along the road with some tavernas, of which Palaiokastro was our favourite.
negative: - The property is neglected and overgrown. - The house is primitive and neglected... - Very thin window panes without any sound insulation. You don't notice anything at all about the insulation of the house mentioned by Chrisa. - The note "Mind your head" on the upper spiral staircase is really to be taken literally throughout the upper floor with the sloping, very low roof beams, especially if you have to go out at night... - The bedrooms cannot be blacked out. - Lightbulbs hang from the ceiling in the living room and directly on the mirror in the bathroom, making it unusable. - There are only Greek TV programs. - The wardrobes consist of a hanger bar with four hangers behind the only opening wardrobe door, all other doors are padlocked. - There are no drawers, shelves or other storage areas. - The toilet window has no handle. - The toilet lids are loose and crooked. - For a one-week stay, there are no replacement towels for each counted large and small towel. - The rent for Almyriki is grossly overpriced and unreasonably excessive. Our three previous holiday homes in the Argolis / Peloponnese region have offered absolute luxury for much less money.
Great home in a fantastic location! We felt very comfortable here and didn't miss anything! Ideal for a family of four.
The house is very comfortable and well equipped, but above all the beach is literally in front of the house! We had a great holiday and everything was perfect. There are many restaurants nearby and it is a great place to shine on the first finger of the Peloponnese or visit the Saronic Islands (50 minutes from Epidaurus by car, 1 hour from Nafplion, 30 minutes from Poros by car, 30 minutes by boat from Hydra). a little over an hour from Poros).
wonderful quiet place, fantastic sea right outside the door, outdoor shower, beautiful terrace, beautiful surroundings
Nice and cozy home Serenity of the place
Nothing
A traditional Greek house with a terrace and a comfortable outdoor shower. The house has normal household appliances, a lot of dishes, two air conditioners in the bedrooms on the second floor. If there are no problems with climbing a rather narrow spiral staircase, life will be comfortable. The sea is close. The beach is a pebble strip along the road. Opposite the house is the best place. Coniferous trees grow there, giving shade (there are sun loungers in the house), there is a pier and entry into the water is cleared. The bottom is pebbles and stones, you can't do without slippers for swimming. Lots of fish - fun to snorkel. Despite the strong wind, there were no waves, the water remained clean, transparent and warm. There are many restaurants in the village; and to the port, and to the ruins of the local Acropolis to go not far. Traders come with food, bread, water almost every day. It is better to travel around the peninsula by car - there is stunning nature around. It is interesting to climb the volcano, ride along the mountain serpentines, and swim in the hydrogen sulphide springs in Methane. We even got to a concert - the annual Saronic Chamber Music Festival was held in the open-air Kameni Chora theater (Saronic Chamber Music Festival, if anyone is interested).
It would be nice to see a landscaped area around the house. There are ants in the house. There are no big inconveniences from them, but in the first days the children were afraid of them.
Welcome. The house has everything you need for comfort, it is well equipped to the smallest detail and, moreover, we leave with a gift made with a soul. The house is very well located, next to the beach, where it is good to swim. The restaurants nearby, in the little port where you walk, are good and inexpensive, the little port is charming. The inhabitants of this beautiful corner of Metana are very sympathetic.
That's all. Nice house right on the water. Good hostess. Clean, usable equipment.
The house is located in a small, very nice village, which is located along the sea. For such a small village, there are many taverns that serve delicious food, especially fish and seafood of course. The house is located right next to the sea. When the windows are open, you can always hear the lapping of the waves. The house is very well built for summer vacations: the terrace is facing the northeast, the sun comes here only in the morning, when it does not burn yet, and then there is always a pleasant shade. The house has, one might say, an individual beach, over which two spreading conifers grow, providing not only shelter from direct sunlight, but also a completely unique aroma of a mixture of the smell of the sea and heated pine needles. The sea is great! Very beautiful with clear water. The beach is pebble. The house had absolutely everything for a comfortable stay: a fully equipped kitchen, all the necessary utensils and even a set of spices, air conditioners in the bedrooms, bed linen, towels (including beach towels) and sun loungers for spending time on the beach. The outdoor shower is very convenient. The only thing: the second floor is attic, and in several places you need to lower your head. The staircase to the second floor is spiral, it did not cause any inconvenience to us. On the ground floor there is a kitchen-dining room connected to the living room: comfortable sofas, TV, fireplace - everything is very beautiful. Comfortable large tables in the dining room and on the terrace. in general, the terrace is so comfortable that we spent almost all the time in the air, we only slept in the house. Great hosts! Very attentive and welcoming! We felt like welcome guests. Almost everything for a wonderful holiday was foreseen to the smallest detail in advance, and minor issues were resolved instantly when communicating via e-mail. The area is very beautiful, the Hosts have provided very detailed maps of what you can see in the vicinity, A very interesting route to the volcano. It is not difficult, and pleasant even in the heat: the road for the most part goes through shady places, and there is a lot of impressions! Highly recommend.
