The Orange Garden

De eigenaar was een fantastische man, super vriendelijk en mega zorgzaam. Alles was perfect aan de woning!

Nous avons été accueillis chaleureusement par Michael, le propriétaire. Le logement est situé à l'étage de la maison. Une grande terrasse nous permet de jouir d'une belle vue sur les orangers et la montagne au loin. Le logement est très spacieux, bien équipé, avec de l'air conditionné dans chaque pièce. Les chambres sont grandes, literie très confortable, oreillers supplémentaires dans les armoires. La piscine est située dans un joli jardin clôturé. Elle est grande et plus profonde que la plupart des piscines. Les transats sont confortables, munis de coussins. On peut se mettre à l'ombre des parasols ou des arbres joliment taillés. L'endroit est idéal pour visiter la région (Thyrinthe, Nauplie, Epidaure et sanctuaire d'Asclépios, Mécène, ...). Merci à Michael pour sa disponibilité et son écoute.

La cuisine pourrait être un peu plus fournie en ustensiles (casseroles, un peu plus de couverts). La luminosité dans les chambres est insuffisante pour lire aisément dans son lit. Michael a promis d'améliorer ces points rapidement. A noter, présence de caméra de surveillance au niveau de la véranda et de la piscine.

Superb accommodation on the outskirts of Nafplio. Incredibly friendly and helpful host, Michael, who provided us with so many excellent recommendations and was on hand for advice and to deal with any issues at all (faulty air con unit which was very easily and quickly fixed). The accommodation was great - lots of space for our family of four, fantastic pool (so warm!), air con in all the bedrooms, outdoor bbq kitchen and all just 10 minutes' drive from the centre of Nafplio. The old town was beautiful - we ate there most evenings - and local beaches were also a treat. We tried out Kondili and Tolo - both lovely. So much to see and do locally too - Mycenae and Ancient Nemea were highlights for us, but also the ancient theatre at Epidaurus where we were lucky enough to get tickets to a performance of an Ancient Greek play. We found the whole area wonderfully uncrowded in early-mid July, even on nights when a cruiser had docked, and most of the tourists were Greek or Italian. All in all, an incredibly relaxing 12 days in great accommodation in a beautiful part of Greece.

If we were being incredibly picky, the pillows could probably do with replacing but otherwise everything was great.

The apartment was well equipped and very comfortable, with good air conditioning and a great pool and barbecue area. The centre of Napflio is a short drive away and there are also village shops and restaurants within 10 minutes` walk. The owner, Michail, lives next door and he was ultra helpful and friendly; he provided plenty of information about local sights, facilities and places to eat and drink.

No negatives at all! Really!
