Notes
The sitting room and dining room are open plan with lovely wooden beamed ceilings. There is a massive patio overlooking the sea. The cleaners come every 2/3 days to clean and make the beds. The poolman comes each day to clean the pool andthe gardeners come each day to water the plants. The cabin can be booked at the same time, so more than 1 family can rent the villa. It is not rented out to anyone else while you are there.
Many guests who stay at the villa join the sailing club, the Peligoni and enjoy the windsurfing, dingy sailing tuition, walking, tennis, painting classes and familiar atmosphere. A great place for teenagers to meet and give mums and dads a break! New swimming pool there.
Port Nicholas
At the port you can take wonderful boat trips to the ship wreak, blue caves and other islands such as Kefalonia. Great trips for the kids. You can also book fishing boats and other boats from here.
flying
Take a trip from the airport in a small sea plane and see the island from the air! A great way to see the whole island, great fun and well worth the cost of 180 euros per couple.
