A lovely presented villa with everything you could wish for situated just far enough out of the village so it feels private but still close enough to walk in where you will be greeted by the friendly locals. The owners are extremely welcoming and are always going the extra mile to make sure your stay is enjoyed by all. Can not recommend this villa highly enough. Thank you for our stay. ##### William F.

There was much attention to detail in all aspects of the accommodation and the beauty of the grounds. We enjoyed comfort, relaxation and fun as a family during our fortnight’s stay. The owners were very generous with excellent hospitality and kindness. ##### Christina S.

The owners have thought of everything and I cannot think of a single thing they could have done to make our stay any better. The villa is exceptionally clean and everything was in place to make it a home from home. Just perfect !! ##### SHERRIL WHITTAKER Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Philip R. 19 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent Villa, charming host family The villa was exceptional for our family. The small pool for little children a winner. The property was spotless and we were welcomed with a meal for our first evening. A lovely gesture. Mid week cake was an added bonus. All in we cannot recommend this property more highly. ##### Philip R. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue H. 31 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic family villa Villa Alonia is ideal for a family holiday, in particular the two pools and the fact that they are away from the house and safe with a gate at the top of the stairs leading from the living room terrace. The village of Melidoni is a 5 minute walk with a small supermarket and great taverna. George and family are brilliant hosts and Think Villa who manage the booking are amazingly helpful. They organised a private chef for a celebration dinner and you can get food delivered by loclal ladies via them. All in all a great holiday. ##### Sue H.

See you soon!! ##### Petra H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Clare S. 9 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous Lovely villa, well located for an easy walk to the village and playground. Pools were beautiful and warm and the villa was absolutely spotless. The nearest towns and beaches are not very touristy and parking can be tricky, but worth visiting to explore the area. The caves and reptile sanctuary are well worth a visit. Would definitely recommend - plenty of space for all and the hosts are wonderful. Thank you! ##### Clare S.

We were greeted by the owners who made us feel very welcome and showed us all around the property. They even cooked a meal as we arrived late evening! The villa had everything you could need and was spotlessly clean. We had a midweek clean and change of towels and sheets which was very unexpected. We would thoroughly recommend this villa and the area if you like a quiet village setting. ##### Helen G.

The villa is located in the land 8km from the sea which makes for a quiet land without being far from the sea. A word about our hosts who were very welcoming and very helpful. They offered us homemade cake, wine and local dishes. They always want to help us at best A big recommandation for this property ##### Laurent B.
