5-bedroom villa with heated pool, sea and mountain views, 5 minutes from the center of town

10/10 Excellent
"Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt in der Villa Danae und haben jede Minute dort genossen. Die Villa ist sehr geräumig und bietet unglaublich viel Platz, sodass man sich sofort wohlfühlt. Besonders die Schlafzimmer waren sehr komfortabel und dank der Klimaanlagen konnten wir selbst bei hohen Temperaturen wunderbar schlafen.Der Außenbereich ist einfach traumhaft. Es gibt viele gemütliche Sitzmöglichkeiten sowie ausreichend Platz zum Entspannen. Das absolute Highlight ist definitiv der riesige Pool – perfekt zum Schwimmen, Relaxen und um den herrlichen Ausblick zu genießen. Auch der Grillbereich hat uns begeistert und sorgte für viele schöne gemeinsame Abende.Die Lage der Villa Danae rundet den Aufenthalt perfekt ab. In der Umgebung gibt es wunderschöne Buchten, kristallklares Wasser und tolle Restaurants. Gleichzeitig konnten wir die Ruhe und Privatsphäre der Villa in vollen Zügen genießen.Vielen Dank für diesen unvergesslichen Aufenthalt – wir kommen gerne wieder!"
