Villa Pounta Family

The villa has breathtaking views over the sea and a beautiful Mulberry tree providing shade in the outdoor seating area. It is a magical place! It is very well equipped with lots of thoughtful touches. Can’t recommend it enough.

Rien

Traumhafter Blick über die Ägäis hinüber nach Alonissos. Nachts grandioser Sternenhimmel, morgens wunderschöner Sonnenaufgang. Sehr nette Besitzerin (spricht allerdings nicht gut englisch).

This place was exactly what we were looking for. It is literally in nature with the most stunning views you could ever imagine. There are a handful of houses around most of which were empty at the time, hence utterly peaceful, i.e. no noise from cars or people. Its location is in the north of the island away from the tourist madness yet easily accessible if you're looking for some noise. The house itself is very beautiful and has the perfect size for a family of 4. The master bedroom is upstairs with its own en-suite providing the much needed privacy parents are seeking during a holiday. There is also a balcony with the most breath taking views even when you're lying in bed. The wifi is very good and there is also a smart TV so kids are very happy. Overall, it was clean, tidy and well equipped. Air-cons work very well which is important and windows are fitted with nets to keep mosquitos out. The house also has lovely outdoor areas overlooking the Aegean Sea, a stone BBQ and a large outdoor sink which was very handy. There are also plenty of dining facilities outside and comfortable chairs & sunbeds to enjoy the view. Anna (the host) is a lovely lady who was very friendly and attentive to our needs. On arrival she showed us around and when we asked whether a fliter coffee machine was available, she actually bought one and delivered it the same evening! The house is highly recommended and when you get there you'll understand why!

This is by no means a negative comment, but I should say that the house is a bit isolated as the nearest village is a 10-minute drive away. Part of the drive is on a dirt road that takes a bit of learning, hence less confident drivers should be mindful. Personally I loved the fact that it was isolated for the benefits above, but those who feel uneasy being away from other people in nature may feel a bit uncomfortable. If isolation is what you want, then you won't find a better place!
