A slice of paradise!
The villa is set in gorgeous, tranquil gardens and is decorated to impeccable standards. We had the junior suite which suited our family of three perfectly, the rooms were generously sized and extremely comfortable and beautiful. It felt like we were staying with our stylish aunt's home in the countryside! The well-equipped kitchen (where you can also do a load of laundry) is always available should you wish to prepare a meal on site which we chose to do numerous times because the outdoor area was so relaxing; many an evening was spent enjoying local wines and cheeses while the sun set and our son explored the gardens. Although the main villa is shared, there was no issue with privacy - we had our own outdoor seating for the evenings and breakfasts and it was lovely to catch up with the other guests in the evenings and share stories about the day's adventures. Our host Marieangela was an absolute gem; she shared all of her inside tips about the best beaches in the area, where to eat in Martano and the surrounding towns and made us feel so welcome that it felt like we were a part of the family. The breakfasts she prepares are truly incredible, each morning we were blown away by the spread she put on; delicious home-made cakes from family recipes, the freshest local pastries, cheeses and fruit in abundance. We ate far too much! Thank you for everything Marieangela and Mariegrazia, we can't wait to visit you and the kittens again soon!
