It felt like we had stumbled upon a piece of paradise. It dreamlike and the photos don't do it justice. We felt incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to find this villa. Beautifully located to get to the beach but also nicely set back and private. Every single detail of this villa is practically and cleverly thought out. I didn't want to leave. the fruits in the garden, the pool area, everything they did to make our stay as comfortable as possible was really quite astounding, when they came to clean mid week they even left toys out for the children to play with. The villa was beautifully clean and so many different places to relax eat and sit. the beds were comfortable and the linen lovely and all the air con helped make his the best holiday i have had. We would go back as many times as we can if we can. Everything worked nothing was impractical. We were so grateful for the effort that the hosts went to for us.

The host Chris was very kind & helpful. Quick reponses to messages. He was there for the check-in & out. They welcomed us with some drinks, other groceries and fresh fruits/ vegetables from the garden to help get us started. The Villa was beautiful, spacious and clean. We ended up spending our days at the pool. It was amazing! Although the beach was only 200m away. We really enjoyed our stay. Can definitely recommend Villa Larus!

A beautiful, cosy villa perfect for a family. We loved the fruit and veg available to pick in the garden and the pool was great - nice temperature and lots of sun beds etc. The host was so friendly and easy to communicate with. The villa was clean and we had everything we needed. The location was great, 200 meters from a lovely beach and plenty of local tavernas within walking distance. Acharavi was also nearby and it was a good base to explore some other towns and beaches. All in all a fantastic stay and I would definitely recommend!
