Luxury Villa Hera with Private Pool

Jenny ist eine super freundliche und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin! Sie hat uns unzählige Informationen gegeben und war stets gut erreichbar. Die Villa ist riesig, wunderschön und auf einem Hügel in einer ruhigen Gegend gelegen. Wir waren zu acht dort. Sie verfügt über insgesamt 4 Badezimmer, 1 Außendusche und 6 WCs (ein Bad mit WC pro Schlafzimmer, ein Gäste-WC und eines im Außenbereich). Zum Kochen sind alle Basics vorhanden, die man braucht. Es sind für zumindest 2 Autos Parkmöglichkeiten gegeben. Die Aussicht ist toll und man wird manchmal in der Früh von Ziegen begrüßt :)

Die Aussicht von der Villa aus ist wunderschön - ohne Auto wäre es aufgrund der höheren Lage aber nicht praktisch. Ein Mietauto ist daher aus unserer Sicht ein Muss, um sich einerseits den steilen, längeren Weg auf den Hügel zu ersparen (mit dem Auto sind es wenige Minuten-vor allem bspw mit Einkäufen oder Gepäck) und auch, um flexibel herumfahren zu können und auch sicher an den Strand zu kommen (der Fußgängerweg führt sonst streckenweise entlang der Leitplanke einer Landstraße).

Mega fed sted der ligner billederne hvis ikke bedre end billederne☺️

Lidt langt fra handle og by men ingen problem med taxi☺️

Het uitzicht is echt formidabel.

First of all, I want to say that the host was extremely nice — always responded quickly and was a very pleasant communicator. The pool and the view add a lot to the house and are among the few things that give the property a “luxurious” feel. The property is perfect for people who love animals — there are many cats running around, and goats are regular visitors in the yard (you definitely shouldn’t forget to keep the doors closed or leave food out on the tables). The hair dryer worked well.

We stayed in this villa with friends for 9 nights. The villa has one bedroom on the ground floor and three bedrooms on the upper floor. The water pressure in the upstairs bathrooms was extremely poor and really tested our patience — sometimes the water would just trickle from the shower head. Hot water also took around 5–10 minutes to come through. (There is an electric boiler that can be switched on separately, but we were told it shouldn’t be kept on for long.) Similarly, in the upstairs bathrooms, after flushing the toilet, you had to wait about 20 minutes before you could flush again because of the low water pressure. The bathrooms also don’t have curtains, and one of the bathroom windows faces directly onto the street, meaning anyone walking or driving by can see straight in — including when you’re in the shower or sitting on the toilet. Each bathroom had only one roll of toilet paper for 9 days, and it was the cheapest, single-ply kind. As for cleanliness: overall the house was clean, except for the floors. It seems the villa is meant for wearing shoes inside, but since we preferred to walk barefoot, we ended up mopping the floors several times on the first day to avoid getting our feet dirty. The shower heads were covered in limescale, so we bought descaler from the store and cleaned them ourselves. The chair and sofa covers were very stained — including the couch, armchairs, sun loungers, and outdoor sofa. We even washed the worst ones ourselves because they were quite unpleasant. There are large ants in the kitchen — even if you remove all food from the counters, they still come in through the gap under the main door and crawl across the surfaces. Overall, it feels like most of the “luxury” comes from the pool and the view, while the interior furniture and finishes are the cheapest possible, likely chosen to rent the house out quickly and inexpensively at a high price.
