Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home in Xirosterni, a five-minute drive from Almyrida Beach, is the perfect place for a family or a small group of friends to spend quality time together. Outside, there's a play area for the little ones, comfortable loungers for sun worshipers and a barbecue area for the foodies. Though if you'd prefer to take a break from cooking, the villa’s chef can take care of dinner. The hot tub on the roof terrace is the best spot for sunset watching, and the pool is a welcome sight on warm afternoons. And if that wasn't enough, a breakfast basket is delivered daily.
