Villa Despina by Villa Plus

Relaxing stay with family

Pros: Stayed with my family in Despina Villa, which is the first one as you drive in. The access to the villa was easy using the key from the safety box. The villa has 2 (heated) swimming pools, one for kids, which our daughter enjoyed a lot. The living room is large and relaxing, the kitchen has basic things for cooking and the 3 bedrooms have comfy beds and AC. We had breakfast every morning outside near the pools, and that can be on the sofa or the covered big table. The villa also has billiards or ping pong tables (We did not use them). The place is near the main road but is peaceful and not noisy. With the car, we went easily to sandy and shallow Pefki and Lindos beaches. We preferred the first as it was less crowded. We stayed 6 nights, and the place was cleaned once after 3 days.

Cons: Starting kit with at least water should always be considered. Some amenities like olive oil, salt, etc. should be available. There was no sufficient water pressure for the tub upstairs. We had to use the shower downstairs, which for sure it requires a larger shower head. You have to leave a safety deposit and have to login to a web app to get access to indications and follow a lot of rules, which was not apparent when I did the booking.
