Rathimata Villas

Loved our stay. Such amazing views from the villa, spectacular. The pool was great, it was clean and comfy, we had a great stay as a family of four

Nothing. My only comment is that the photos don’t actually do it justice!

We enjoyed a wonderful week in Stoupa as a family of four with teenage kids and absolutely loved the villa. We had the middle villa which has the smaller pool but has wonderful outside space. The views from the villa are outstanding and the photo’s don’t do justice. We loved the location, whilst it’s a drive down into stoupa it wasn’t far enough to be a chore and we visited the local restaurant and bar in the local village which is walkable. Internally the villa was well equipped and very comfortable. Beds were very comfortable. Communication with akis was brilliant and great to be met and shown to the villa. We weren’t expecting a mid week clean and bedding/towel change so this was a bonus.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t like and surpassed expectations.

Sehr netter, freundlicher Kontakt zum Vermieter Akis. Nochmal vielen Dank für alles! Die ruhige Lage des voll ausgestatteten schönen Steinhauses mit gepflegtem Pool sowie der Ausblick über die gesamte Bucht sind hervorragend. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

We enjoyed the wonderful view and the location - we were close to Stoupa and Agios Nikolaus but it was much more peaceful and scenic than staying in town. It was also possible to walk into Neochorio which has a shop, bakery and two tavernas (Thea Manis recommended) if we preferred to avoid driving. Generous outdoor space. The villa was very good value compared with some similar sized properties locally. It’s not as modernised as some but is well kept and has what you need (no dishwasher but not the end of the world). We appreciated being met at the supermarket by the owner who showed us the rest of the way to ensure we didn’t get lost, this also gave us a good opportunity to stock up. We really appreciated having a mid week cleaner visit.

It would be nice to have an outdoor shaded area (like a pergola or a veranda maybe) because it was tricky to get enough shade from just the umbrella at lunchtime. Also, it would be better to list the three villas separately on booking.com. Because photos from all three villas are shown under the listing, I actually thought I had booked a different villa, so I was a little disappointed by the smaller pool and lack of outdoor shaded area on arrival. My mistake, but confusion could be avoided by separating the listings.
