“In Vathy, this is a find: sea views that truly capture the Ionian spirit. The location blends village access with the quiet of Loutsa Beach nearby. It's my opinion that the charm here lies in its balance-relaxed but undeniably special.”

Mediocre stay with some issues

decent locationsmall bathroom

The location was fairly decent. It allowed me to walk into town.

I was annoyed the room was so small, particularly the bathroom. It was barely useable. It felt cramped and I kept bumping into things. The shower was tiny, I did not like it.
