"Pros: We spent a wonderful week in this house. We arrived late on Sunday, and the owners greeted us with a hot meal as if we were old friends. They are very kind and helpful. The fridge was filled with food, a bottle of wine, and some beers. The house is really nice and very clean. Even better than in the pictures. The pool is quite deep and big, with clean, well-maintained water. There is a big and nice barbecue area. All needed home equipment is present (dishwasher, washing machine, oven, iron, hair dryer, etc.). We can't wait for next holidays here :) Cons: The view from the first-floor balcony is not very nice (there is a construction site at the moment, so it will probably improve soon). Other than that, the villa is surrounded by beautiful olive gardens and mountains on the horizon. The Wi-Fi is poor. I can only think of these two minor issues. Everything else is wonderful, and we felt at home." ~Marta

"Pros: If you are looking for a nice house with pool away from the busy tourist strips, then you are in the right place with Laganas Stone Villas. It’s nicely located within the island, away from the towns and touristic areas. That means, of course, that you will need a vehicle to get there. The villa itself is spaceous enough for 4 people with one double bed in one room and two single beds in a separate room. There are also two bathrooms (one directly attached to the doublebed-room). The pool is very nice as well. Bare in mind, though, that is deep throughout (1.70m), so you have to closely watch children. All in all, it was a very nice stay. However, there are a few things that we didn’t like so much. Some can be improved, other cannot: Cons: - Check-In: this was a bit strange as we had no real information on the process and even though we had contact before we arrived, there was also noone waiting there. At the end, we just opened the property door and found the key in the front door’s lock. It felt very odd entering a foreign property without consent “looking around” to do a self-checkin. If we would have known before, we wouldn’t have mind of course. - Communication: The only communication we had was when we mentioned that we were there and we were asked if we had already check-in (see above). When we later asked for some recommendations and asked questions (via the booking-plattform), we received no response at all… - The pool cleaner comes EVERY DAY in the morning. Sometimes, a brown dog accomanies him. The same dog peed on the provided outdoor-pillow one day as it came by itself. We chased it off and cleaned the pillow. As we mentioned it to the owner: no response whatsoever. - We always double-locked the main entrance when we left during the day. Someone was in the house during the day once as the door was not locked at all when we returned, but there was no cleaning work apparent. - If you like cats (we do): great. There will be at least three of them always around the garden and the pool. If you don’t watch out, they will be straight in the house. - On our last evening, the owners of the furthest back villa had a party and their guests parked all the cars in front of our villas entrance so that there was no chance to get in. We ringed their bell three or four times with noone responding. Luckily guests were then just leaving and when the leaving guest told the others that we are blocked, I could just here a “I don’t care” in the background… they eventually moved their cars… - We hope you like roosters. As it is the countryside, there are a couple around and they start crowing 4:00/5:00 am the latest - continuously for the entire morning." ~Daniela
