VILA INSPIRATION - ON KINI BEACH

Location was brillaint, two steps to the beach. Lovely sandy beach and clear water. Perfect for swimming. 5 mins walk to typical Greek restaurants and bars. Not touristy. Good bus service. Stunning little village. Property was excellent. Fully equipped. Air con. Yiannis and Helen were extremely helpful. Lots of space. Seating at the front and rear and on the roof top sun terrace. Lots of sun beds. Will definitely be back.

The music from the hotel next door was beyond the control of Vila Inspiration but I got used to it. Very peaceful apart from that.

We LOVED this property! The huge front porch was our favorite place to relax and watch the sunset. The beds were comfortable and it was perfect for my family of 3. We could easily walk to the grocery store and restaurants. And having a washing machine to wash our clothes was a bonus!

Nothing

Eigentlich hat uns alles gefallen. Das kleine Haus ist gut eingerichtet und steht an guter Lage. Die Kommunikation mit Yiannis klappte bestens. Kini ist mit dem Bus gut erreichbar, und das Haus ist ganz in der Nähe der Haltestelle. Allerdings fährt der Bus zu dieser Jahreszeit nur einige Male pro Tag. (Achtung: Der KTEL-Fahrplan im Internet scheint nicht immer atualisiert zu werden. Die aktuelle Version hängt an der Start-/Endstation in Ermoupoli).

Das Wetter war während unseres Aufenthalts kühl, so dass wir die Veranda leider nicht nutzen konnten. Der 'Haken' beim kühlen Wetter war, dass die Heizung (Klimaanlage) im Haus gleich unterhalb der Decke angebracht ist. Die hohen Räume vermochten dadurch nur sehr langsam bzw. nur mässig warm zu werden.

This is an old family house (built 1961) literally across the road from the beach. The position could not be better. There are restaurants along the waterfront to left and right. The village has a small supermarket plus a shop where you can buy fresh pastries and bread. There is a big terrace in front of the house and a roof terrace with loungers and umbrellas. The property has a big garden with plenty of shade trees. Iannis, the owner, has a little hut at the back of the property if you need him. He speaks good English and it is very much worth your while to chat with him. He is a retired music teacher who now devotes himself to composing classical music. Kini has a lot of cats. There is a scheme for feeding the cats so they all look plump and contented and don't pester you when you are eating! There are plenty of walks in the hills. Everybody you meet has a friendly word.

The shower room is on the small side but there is nothing else to complain about.
