Varvara: Beach House med aircondition, fantastisk udsigt

The setting of Varvara is absolutely stunning - hard to beat. It’s literally on the beach and a mere 40-odd steps to the sea which is calm and clear. The breakfast table on the terrace has stunning views and the beach is so quiet there are barely any passers by. You also get some stunning sunsets looking across to Albania. The villa is very traditional and we felt the decor was a little tired and needed updating, especially the bathroom. As a couple (no kids) we felt it was a shame that the main bedroom wasn’t the one with the beach view and the wonderful sound of the gentle waves. The owner of the villa lives next door and was very friendly but unobtrusive. Also, it’s worth noting the the instructions to the villa are very clear but they miss out a vital part at the end, not making it clear where exactly to park. You park in the drive of the owner’s house next door. Overall a lovely place and we certainly won’t forget the stunning location.

The location of the accommodation was incredible! We had a wonderful family stay!

Villa Varvara is a beautiful place on the seafront, you walk across the beach to your own private gated entrance which leads to the most charming Greek Villa. A fantastic patio with sunbeds a quaint pergola to sit in the shade and also a shower area. Steps lead up to your balcony an idea place to sit at your table eat, relax and listen and watch the waves. The interior of the Villa is typically Greek and has absolutely everything you need for your perfect beach holiday. The bedrooms are pretty and the beds comfortable. The kitchen is great everything has been thought out for your stay.There is a superb swimming pool to the rear which is lovely and clean with sunbeds and umbrellas for shade in the heat. This is fenced off and very private, a great place for sun lovers. There is a barbeque for your use which we enjoyed, also a private bench outside your gate to relax and watch the world go by.The beach is stony but if you walk to the left by the little jetty you can swim and there is a sandy part. There is a trail that leads up through the olive grove which leads to Kassiopi, follow the orange arrows and signs. Its a bit hilly and uneven but great if you fancy it, it leads out to the harbour, not a short cut but very pretty indeed.You are able to walk easily to Kassiopi town if you take the path from the small beach in about 15- 20 minutes which is fab lots of bars, shops and restaurants and if you walk the other way you can visit another beach and have food or drinks at Cabo Babaro which is fab.The owners live in the villa next door and are very welcoming and courteous people, they were very helpful and friendly but not intrusive at all. We would definitely visit again, it was lovely, and if you like to fish bring your rod, walk out of your gate and catch some fish.

It was my second stay at Varvara with everything being absolutely exceptional again and even the surprise addition of a swimming pool this time! The property is very comfortable and it's location right on the beach couldn't be any better.
