Vardakis house - 5 minutes from the famous Shipwreck Beach by Villa Mana Gers

The house is really nice, has all the facilities you need, hairdryer, iron, fridge, a fully equipped kitchen, parking space. The Volimes village is very picturesque, even has 1-2 tavernas where you can eat. Very good villa for 2 couples. We never met the hosts, but they were friendly and welcoming, ready to answer every question you had on the WhatsApp group. It was very clean, in our 1 week stay we had a cleaning lady come one day to change the sheets and towels. If you are looking for nightlife the only options Tsilivi and Laganas are a little bit far. We drove along the island with no problem, we knew every beach, and attraction was like a 30-minute drive away. I never looked at the position of the villa as a downside, as I enjoyed travelling through the whole island. We were never really bothered about driving 30 minutes to go eat in Zakynthos or Tsilivi. The only reason I gave a 9 not a 10 was the Wifi.

The Wifi was not good at all, besides some moments it worked well, but that's only because 1 device was connected, but that's how the Internet is working in Greece :) The rooms would definitely need a wardrobe or much more hangers for the stander, we only had 3.

A comfortable place to stay in one of the best spots on the island. Full kitchen, comfortable bed, hot water and private parking place. Wine, fruit and water to welcome us too!

Location is not obvious, turn up the narrow road (away from the church) next to the mini market.

We wanted to stay in Volimes to be able to reach the shipwreck viewpoint in Navagio Bay. Unfortunately, the access road was closed off because of the risk of wildfilres in the extreme heat, so we never reached the viewpoint. However, Volimes turned out to be such a quint little village, and Vardakis House the perfect place to stay, so we had a great time anyway. The host, Dionisia, was very accomodating and answered all our written questions very quickly.

That the access road to the Navagio beach viewpoint was closed.

It is truly a holiday home in the mountains for a family or 2 couples. The house is new and clean, being recently built. The host waited for us to hand us the keys and offered us a bottle of wine. In the house you will find everything you need for a pleasant stay (from plates, cutlery, to towels and consumables), and for any problem you will receive an answer immediately. I was glad that I had a washing machine at my disposal, very useful given the fact that people come on holiday for the beach and have many towels. You have a spacious open parking lot right in front on the house

Although the location is beautiful and unique, we realized that we - being younger people who like nightlife - always had trouble finding a place to eat. The location is far from anything, and 80% of that village is inhabited only by locals. We always traveled about 1 hour to the nearest tourist spot. If you are a family with a child, with a morning program and who prefer to use the kitchen anyway, then it is an ok place. The location is difficult to access for unskilled drivers, the streets are extremely sloping and as wide as 1 car - for us it was not a problem, but I know that for some it will be.
