We really did not know what to expect - at first view of the photos, I thought that this place may have been a little old or dated, however, it really was extremely charming and intentionally decorated to reflect the history of the area. Upon arrival, we were met by one of the loveliest humans we have had the pleasure of meeting! Aristea greeted us so warmly and took time to give us a full tour. She was so helpful and available for whatever we needed. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the grounds and pool absolutely beautiful. There is a rocky beach just out front, or a more organized beach with lounge chairs and umbrellas a few meters away. There is no breakfast included, however, Aristea brought fresh fruit and juice on the first day and there is a fully equipped kitchen with a Nespresso machine and coffee pods were brought in as needed. There are also a couple of restaurants within a few minutes walking distance and many more in the town (approx. 20 to 30 minute walk). We booked 3 units among friends and had the best time ever lounging by the pool, some went hiking and midnight swimming ... just an absolutely beautiful place, we would definitely stay here again!
The bathroom was quite small in the unit we stayed in, so there was no room to lay out all our toiletries, however, we used the buffet in the main room to lay out the items we used daily. We would have loved to sleep with the windows open, however, there are no screens on the windows and doors, which would have been an easy invitation for mosquitoes and bugs!

We have travelled in Greece a lot and this was our favourite place we’ve ever stayed! Absolutely stunning property and apartments perfect for our group of 5 adults and 1 baby (we booked the 2-bedroom and studio apartments). The apartment is spacious, beautifully decorated and even better than the photos. The property itself is beautiful with a huge pool and olive trees, a nice 20 minute stroll to the centre of Kardamyli. The kitchen had everything we needed and included juice and fruit from a local village on arrival. Aristea was so helpful and gave us fabulous recommendations for the area. We can’t wait to come back.

Wonderful host, thanks to her advice we discovered the hidden gems of the region. The appartment is very tastefully equipped, the beautiful terrace with views over the grounds through the olive trees to the sea leaves nothing to be desired. Special bonus: the small entry into the sea just opposite the property.

A quiet and dreamy place, close to the beautiful Kardamily village, amazing beaches within driving distance. The hostess was charming and friendly.

Fantastic pool in mature olive groves next to the sea. Very peaceful. Good air conditioning. Excellent restaurants in the village and beautiful scenery. Aristea was very welcoming, with a complimentary fresh fruit basket on arrival and lots of useful suggestions for restaurants and trips . Good snorkelling from the rocky beach opposite- we saw an octopus! Be careful though as we also saw lion fish , which have toxic spines
The bathrooms and shower were a bit small- we kept accidentally spraying the floor with water. WiFi was slow.

Everything was simply excellent: the hostess, the location by the sea, the pool, the cleanliness, the design, the quiet, the proximity to the village

Quiet location but easy walk to excellent local taverna and the village. Easy access to sea via ladder adjacent to villa.
Fantastic swimming pool, shared with other villa on site but big enough to cope.
Very clean and comfortable. Good air-con. Host always available to answer any queries.
Showers were small and only hand held shower head.

Salvia was an excellent host and communicator and made sure the housekeeper, who lives onsite near the villa, was there to greet us and give us the keys. The apartment/villa had character, and the pool was absolutely beautiful, shared with 3 other villas but only one family there apart from us because we went in September. The views from the pool of the mountains behind and the coast were wonderful. The shoreline is black volcanic rock, but there are beaches you can walk to 5 minutes up the coast. There is a superb outdoor restaurant only 4 minutes walk away at Elies Resort under olive grove, this is a big plus.

Zen and peaceful
A wonderful place to stay with a lovely and big swimming pool in the middle of olive trees and a nice garden. In front of the see with direct access to sea and near by foot to a nice beach and to the village . You can have good dinner by 5 to 10 min walk in nice taverna on the sea side . The house is big well equipped. The owner is so nice and helpful , she makes you feel at home; we stayed 3 days but could have stayed more !

The host was really kind and helpful. She gave all sorts of information about the area ( beach, restaurants ) and was kind enough to let us stay longer to use the swimming pool and outdoor shower on our last day.

We had a wonderful time and felt very at home in the villa. Our host made us feel very welcome with delicious Greek pancakes and other breakfast items on arrival, plus a lovely fruit platter and bottle of wine when we left. The grounds were well kept and the pool was perfect, our two year old loved it. The villa itself was spacious, clean and homely. It was such a nice luxury to have clean towels and sheets every day. We also have a four month old and the cot provided was great. The Nespresso machine was a nice touch and we used the outdoor dining area a lot. We had a wonderful time.
A microwave would have been handy to sterilise bottles for my 4 month old but we just used the kettle instead, which was quick to boil.

Fantastic welcome. This property is self-catering BUT Aristea makes the best homemade lemonade ever and warm herb pancakes with marmalade that were worth the visit on their own! Large clean pool and the sea 20 yards away. Comfortable spacious room.
This is the most expensive place we have stayed in Greece and I was tempted not to give full marks for value, but you can’t really call a place Paradise and then quibble about the price!
