A magical villa we'll return to year after year
We've just returned from our second stay at Sunset Villa, and that alone says everything. We never usually visit the same place twice, but this has now become our regular June trip.
Antonio and Alexandra are wonderful hosts: warm, accommodating, and genuinely passionate about what they've created. And what they've created is truly special: a beautifully built villa (largely by Antonio himself!) with stunning interior design. Perched on top of a hill, it's private and secluded, which is exactly why we keep coming back.
The location is superb. The local village of Perithia is charming. Harry's is a great restaurant, you can enjoy beers at the Post Office (yes, you read that right!), and for something a little special, Lasmari is an upscale open-air restaurant with excellent service. A short drive up the mountain takes you to Old Perithia, full of charming tavernas. The local beaches are incredible, with loads within 5-10 minutes. Agios Spiridon is the closest, with a good beach bar run by friendly owners. You're also just minutes from Kassiopi, a beautiful harbour town that's great for boat rental.
But back to the owners: this villa is a true family affair, and we're just as happy to see Antonio and Alexandra again as we are the villa itself. Huge thanks to you both. You have a beautiful villa and a wonderful family, and we look forward to seeing you next year, maybe sooner!
