Had an amazing stay at Ambelonas Villa, the villa and location are incredible. Irene made us feel so welcome when booking and throughout our stay. Nothing was too much trouble and she gave us so much information to enhance our holiday. We felt totally looked after, with Elaine only a short distance away if we had any difficulties. This is the most beautiful, tranquil place we have ever stayed and can’t wait to go back next year.

This is a unique villa stay due to the amazing view and location. It is based in old skala so a car is essential and you have to be willing to drive to beach, restaurants, town etc. However, what you get is a beautiful View, complete privacy and lots of friendly goats! The house is clean, has everything you might need and Irene and the house keeper helped with anything we needed during our stay, The welcome basket on arrival was a lovely touch. We loved it and made the most of the view and amazing pool during our stay.

Great week

Lovely villa - very clean and well equipped. The welcome pack is a nice touch. The roads are very windy - lots of hairpins. Local super market in Skala was fine for all our needs and nearest taverna is very good but it’s a 20 minute walk away . Lots of tavernas in Skala we only tried a couple and both were very good .
