Magic place
This lovely villa with fantastic views of the mountains and the sea had everything we needed for a great family holiday. The owners were so helpful, kind and welcoming and we learnt a lot about producing olive oil. They couldn’t have done more. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We were made very welcome and the locals were very friendly. As a group of 11 the place was ideal and met our needs. The local restaurant at the sea side were divine and highly recommended. Overall the perfect holiday destination.
