"Pros: We spent six nights in the Villa, we liked that it’s outside Kardamyli and in an almost secluded spot, very quiet and a lot of privacy. The Kardamyli area is so beautiful, we did three hikes through beautiful villages, olive groves, gorges and mountains, taking photos all the time. The villa itself is very clean and appears new as well, the owner must have taken pain in keeping it in a pristine condition, the two cooking pans almost appeared brand new (unlike heavily scratched ones normally seen in such rentals). The villa also seems stocked with everything one needs, fresh fruits, cake, coffee capsules and mountain tea awaited us upon arrival, bed/pillow/cover are very very comfortable like 5-star hotels. The view on the patio is mesmerizing, unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoy it much in March. When the patio cannot be used, the kitchen & eating area can feel very small, doing big cooking is not very convenient. We mostly just made breakfasts or heated up leftovers. The WiFi was very slow to almost non existent during our stay, which seemed to be a local infrastructure issue and owner was very apologetic about it." ~Xinyi

"Pros: A fabulous location with a terrace looking out over the sea with olive trees and a lemon tree outside. All very clean and comfortable with decent facilities. Cons: I found it just a bit austere. Apart from a couple of WhatsApps, I had no further contact with the owner. Some basic info about the area would have been nice but also about the house—for example I fought the hot water and hated having to drain away so much cold before it got hot. Was there a trick to doing this more economically? Tiny point—I really would have loved a bread knife!!" ~Crawford
