Absolute wow factor in every way!

Honestly can't praise Dimitra enough - consistent, helpful and accurate contact from the very beginning, helping us with anything we needed. Agalia who ran a local taxi service, also super helpful and good calue - particularly when we needed the minibus for 6 of us. Mary the cleaner took time to show us around the place and even run us to the local shopwhen we arrived to get stocked up. And then the actual villa. Well im not exaggerating when i say its absolutely stunning. Way better than it appears on the photos. 3 floors, each beautifully laid out and decorated. Every provision supplied and the most stunning views. 5 mins walk a mini market, a further 5 minutes walk to Vrahos beach and bars and restaurants a plenty, along with watersports and inflatable fun for kids. In the other direction a 15 minute walk to Lygia a small and pretty harbour town with a few restaurants and cool bars a bit further along. And in the middle, your own slice of private heaven. All 6 of us loved it and agree the only thing that could have improved our stay wouldve been a couple of scooters or bycicles for those who struggled with walking in the heat (it was 37 degrees most days) but it really was perfect.of theof the week) but beautiful small r and

Traumhaus am Meer

Wunderbares Haus am schönes Meer. Ausreichend Platz für uns 4 Erwachsene und zwei Kinder. Liebevoll und stilvoll eingerichtet. Viele tolle Plätze am Haus zum Essen und entspannen. Der direkte Strandzugang ist besonders toll ! Private Liegen auf feinem Kies. Die kleinsten konnten bedenkenlos schwimmen und schnorcheln. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder !

Traditional Greek villa on the beach

Perfect traditional Greek villa in a perfect location with beautiful views just steps down to a semi private beach - what more could you want! In a quiet location but a walk or short drive to Vrachos beach with several bars and restaurants, if you can tear yourself away from the villa! The towns of Parga and Preveza are only 30 mins drive away, and a visit to Acheron Springs is a must. The host Dimitra was very responsive and very helpful. Beautiful sunsets from the villa. We would go back.

Great house with great owner

Great house with great owner. Got a warm welcome including house description even our ferry was delayed in the evening. The house is fully equipped because owner use it themselves for holiday. The owner is really supportive gave us tipps for restaurants and supermarkets. We have been there in the side season and enjoyed a lot of privacy. The garden and the sunsets are amazing, we really enjoyed and are happy to come again. Also our huge dow was welcome.

Traumhaft schön!

Die Villa war genau so wie in der Anzeige beschrieben. Ein wunderschönes Haus zum wohlfühlen und entspannen. Die Lage und vor allem die Aussicht von den Terrassen aus ist traumhaft. Es war alles vorhanden, fast wie zu Hause, von einer voll ausgestatteten Küche, Handtücher für den Strand bis hin zu Kosmetikartikeln. Es ist sauber und sehr liebevoll eingerichtet, mit einem Blick für Details, die einem das Wohlfühlen noch leichter machen. Wir wurden sehr nett von der Eigentümerin persönlich begrüßt, die sich sehr viel Zeit genommen hat, um uns alles zu zeigen und zu erklären. Und auch während unseres Aufenthalts konnten wir uns bei Fragen immer an Sie wenden. Wir empfehlen dieses Haus und vor allem die Vermieterin aufs Wärmste weiter, es war ein toller Urlaub und wir freuen uns schon aufs nächste Mal!

A magical, peaceful hideaway

The villa Effelli is a beautifully and artistically decorated house, right on a lovely stretch of sandy beach. We loved the hammocks and outside eating area, we loved the balconies and gorgeous bathrooms. Our lovely host generously arranged for fresh bread to be delivered every day and the kitchen was well equipped with everything we could possibly need. Sitting outside in the evening watching the sunset was really special. A peaceful, magical place.

Un instant de paradis

La Villa Efelli est un lieu merveilleux, plein de poésie et de délicatesse. La lumière douce, la plage déserte, l'air léger, les meubles anciens, les dentelles blanches et les hamacs, un sentiment de parenthèse enchantée, un lieu hors du temps offert par des hôtes merveilleux qui ont su créer l'inoubliable. Un grand merci à Dimitra pour son accueil et sa confiance. Nous avons vécu ici des moments que nous garderons précieusement dans nos coeurs.

Divine

We adored Villa Efelli. It is a delightful house in a beautiful location. Every morning I played my guitar for a couple of hours in the garden with only the sea view and a lot of cicadas for company. The beach is pretty much private - very few itinerant bathers, mostly just residents of the few local houses. The water is crystal clear, with no urchins underfoot - a great relief. 25 mins walk or 3 mins drive to tavernas on Vrachos beach or the one in Lygia village. Plenty of bars, minimarkets in Vrachos, too. Vrachos was quite lively - bars and watersports - so we alternated with a day on the beach at home and one there. The villa is clearly a beloved family retreat and the decor is exquisite (if quirky in places). The kitchen is on the small side, but we coped and cooked regularly without too much trouble. The outside spaces are simply glorious.... Finally, Dimitra was a wonderful host, even going so far as to bake cakes and pies for us, as well as delivering fresh cherries and arranging for daily bread deliveries. Definitely a five-star experience from us.

Unique style, wonderful view, homelike.

We were a group of relatives with kids and I can say that this property was the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing holiday. Spacious rooms, unique traditional style, well equipped kitchen with all facilities. The espresso machine was a pleasant surprise. I love Italian coffee... and the fresh bread provided every morning at the gate was just the perfect way to start the day. The beach almost private, and the sea is crystal clear. Kids loved diving and watching the fish The cleaning lady ( Meri ) was very friendly and helpful. She makes the best organic marmalade ( gliko ) :). The guy who helped with the cleaning of the garden was friendly and helpful too. Thank you Dimitra ( the lovely owner ) for everything. You made our stay the prefect family holiday... I would highly recommend this property to everyone who wants to enjoy a relaxing holiday, in a place that you'll immediately feel like your home.

A house of great character, perfect for a group

We arrived at Villa Effeli at night after a long drive. The magic of the house and Dimitra's welcoming made a fantastic first impression to every member of our party of 6 adults. The second impression did not disappoint: the place is full of wonderful surprises and has great atmosphere with a sense of the local vernacular. It is also very comfortable.The garden, terraces and beach are also great with a lot of personal touches. We were not very lucky with the weather, but we still enjoyed a few extraordinary sunsets setting right between the islands of Paros and AntiParos, from the upper terrace. Dimitra was always at hand to give us local recommendations and tips for our visits. The whole area has an fascinating past (ancient Greek, Roman, Ottoman etc...), so we were able to do very interesting sight seeing when it was not beach weather.Possibly because of the rain, there were quite a lot of mosquitoes along all that coast, but a bit of prevention works. A place we would all like to return

Amazing House!

I spent a very relaxing week here with 5 other friends. It is a spectacular house with lots of good place to sit and read a book. The private access to the beach is also a big benefit. For the adventurous there is also an outdoor oven which is fun for making Pizzas in. Dimitra is very hospitable and helpful. Thank you for a wonderful week in a wonderful house.

Paradise found - what a magical home

I don't know where to begin. My girlfriend and I live in New York, and we wanted to escape to the Mediterranean. This is definitely the beautiful home we were looking for when we first imagined a beach vacation in Greece. The house and it's stone deck leading to the beach are true masterpieces. There are hammocks outside, as well as a shower. I spent nearly a week there with my girlfriend and we could not ask for a more romantic, calm, and majestic setting to enjoy the Mediterranean. It's a big house so I think of one day returning with a group of friends. Oh and I also had the best fish of my life at a taverna restaurant in a nearby town.

Warmth and beauty

This lovely located family owned house gives you the feeling you are at home in this lovely holiday house. With only the steps down as access to the beach, the lovely views from the terraces and warm interior design, you feel very much at home on the most beautiful location you could imagine. The family owning this lovely house is incredibly warm and kind and it is a real joy to to rent their family property from them! We clearly recommend this house! (We stayed with a family with 3 boys 9 - 12; they kept themselves occupied on the beach, snorkling, fishing. Etc for the full stay easily, so we parents since long managed to read a few book!)

The sea really is that blue

We were a family party with small children. Loads of space and comfortable communal areas inside and out. We hardly left the property, and made good use of the outdoor kitchen and wood oven. We had the beach to ourselves most of the time, and the sea perfect. The place has the feel of a cherished family home, clean and well maintained and with very attentive local caretaker. Fresh fish and bread delivered to the gate. We could have done a lot more exploring of the local ancient sites, but somehow we couldn't leave the shady terraces and rocking hammocks. Another time I hope. Would certainly recommend as a quiet and comfortable retreat. Need to be able to cope with steps to beach.

Best Beach Vacation ever

What you expect after seeing the pictures is exactly what you get when you are there. The peaceful and calm atmosphere combined with the fantastic view, takes away all motivation to go somewhere else. Even though the nearby beaches are very nice too and the nearby towns have all the shopping, dining or going out to offer that one could whish for - most of the time you just want to be on this patio under the pergola. The owner really gives you the feeling to be a welcome guest, a friend even and is always available to give advice or fix a problem. After having been on a lot of beach holidays in beautiful places, we were here the second time now and here it is where we want to come back to again and again.

Einfach wunderschön und liebevoll

Das Haus ist mit viel Liebe zum Detail und im griechischen Stil sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet- eine Rarität. Mit den vielen Balkonen und Terrassen, dem Garten und alles in vorderster Reihe mit Meerblick bietet es einige lauschige Plätze draußen. Oft ist man der einzige Besucher des Strandes direkt am Haus- während ein Strand weiter in Lygia Beach der Bär rockt. Wer mit mehreren Personen anreist muss sich mögen, denn nur die Schlafzimmer im Untergeschoss lassen sich mit einer Tür schließen. Das Obergeschoss ist nur durch die schmale Wendeltreppe abgetrennt. Die Matratzen sind allesamt ziemlich hart. Nette Bars, Cafès und Restaurants sowie Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind mit dem Auto in 5 Minuten erreichbar. Wir waren schon 2 Mal da und werden wieder kommen.

Perfect beach vacation home!

Villa Efelli provided the perfect relaxing beach vacation for our family of five including kids from 3 to 18. The photos are accurate: the layout is wonderful, the views are fabulous, the house is well-maintained, and the private beach is delightful. Although we took several forays to nearby towns and attractions, our favorite days were those in which our car never left the driveway. Most of our time was spent outside on the beach or on the patio under the pergola. Although there are many restaurants in the area, our best meals were prepared in the well appointed kitchen and eaten outside. Dmitra could not have been more helpful. She even provided a cell phone so she could be easily reached if needed. I highly recommend Villa Efelli!
