“Wonderful soothing home in beautiful garden”
We stayed for a week in the Villa Kalimera with 2 adults and 4 teenagers, and enjoyed it very much.
There is one separate bedroom with (small) bathroom with a king size bed, and access to a terrace. In the kitchen/living room there are two couches opposite of each other that you can use as beds. Also a modest bathroom. And then on the second floor, it is like an inside balcony, there is a futon for two persons. This persons have access to the wonderfull terrace on the roof! Everything is personally decorated with some antique tools and handcrafts from local objects out of nature. It is very cosy.
The kitchen contains everything you might possibly need, so you can perfectly prepare meals yourself. And then you can enjoy this meals on one of the very nice terraces in the garden.
In that beautiful garden with large trees that provide a lot of shade there are three terraces, some in the shade, some in the sun. One nice round one, some bigger in front of the house and one in the middle of the garden between house and pool. The latest you can't fully use when the figs are ripe, because they fall constantly and drip. But you have al lot of alternatives. At last there is a terrace on the second floor with a stunning view on the Aegean Sea. You can see the boats enter the harbour. Very nice to sit there in the late afternoon.
The pool was very nice, especially for the kids, but is also large and deep enough to exercise a bit. Around the pool there are sunbeds. The view from that side is magnificent.
The house and pool where all very clean. And during the week we had some new linen and cleaning.
The only thing some people might not like is that you have to wipe de terraces every morning with broom and water during the time when de figs are ripe and falling. Takes about 30 minutes, but we had no problem with that. And will only be in time that the figs are falling down, and I think this year was a very good fig year...
There were also some wasps, but hardly a problem.
The environment is very quiet. The street near the house has hardly any traffic.
The owner keeps in contact with you far before your trip and provides in everything you need or want to know. Also during your stay you can reach him bij whats app and he quickly responds.
Thank you very much Alessandro for your hospitality. It was a magnificent stay in Villa Kalimera.
