Ionian Vista Villas

Lovely location for sure. Step inside the villa and that’s where it starts to go wrong. Firstly it’s not a villa. It’s a small 2 bedroom house with a paddling pool. The internet didn’t work when we arrived (that was fixed quickly). The air conditioning wasn’t working and we were given 2 inefficient electric radiators. (That’s still not working after 4 days). It gets so cold at night. It’s cheaper to provide guests with radiators than turning on the air conditioning unit. Cost of doing business hit Greece as well. The kitchen is so basic you can’t do anything in it. Missing ustensiles, cheap furniture falling apart and the shower quality (when there is hot water) is appalling. Low pressure and outdated. There is CCTV as well in the garden so the owner can watch guests. Didn’t look for hidden cameras inside the house so I can’t say. Breakfast is included. For that you have to walk in town down hill on inexistent or broken footpaths with cars driving centimetres from you. Once you get to the hotel the breakfast is an insult to Greek cuisine. Mostly microwaved pastries filled with processed meat, cereals and only unhealthy gluten free options. Then you have to go back up hill to get back to the property. That’s good exercise so I don’t mind. I’m writing this as I’m waiting for the hot shower to be fixed. Best going for air b and b. Not worth more that €150 a night

Such a lovely spot and so peaceful, lovely room With everything needed and a lovely pool. We came when quiet but wouldn’t be enough sun loungers if full! Great location but you will need a car to explore and make the most of it. Just a 10-15 min walk down into argostoli but the roads are steep so be prepared for the way back or take a taxi for €6! Would definitely come back!
