We had a great time in Arresti mountain resort. There are only 5 houses in a vast domain. The house has a big, beautiful, quiet garden with private pool and is close (car is needed) to 2 excellent bakeries, a grocery with all necessary food and very good restaurants. It is well located to start excursions on the island. The pool is great, excellent garden furniture and during the whole day, you always have the option between sun and shadeThe advertisement of the house was excellent for the pool and the garden, however not so clear for the house and the service: it was a nice surprise that there is hotel service in the house: cleaning of the house, terrace and pool was done every day, the bed linen was changed twice a week and the towels every 2 days. On the other hand, the advertisement mentioned a barbecue which was absent and a dishwasher which was so small that it was only suited for a few cups and small plates. The kitchen is small, but well equipped with qualitative material.
The villa is set in a small, gated community of 5 villas.completely secluded, not overlooked and very quiet .We were met by Fania, the manager who lives on site, and who talked us through the villa etc.We arrived late and hungry and Fania kindly rang local restaurants to see if anyone was still open.An electric bbq was available on request, which was cleaned for us after each use, we even had our bins emptied and beds made each day by Katrina.The walk to the nearest village is 20 minutes down a steep hill with a couple of nice restaurants.We can highly recommend San Leon, who stayed open until 11pm to feed us! They also have a Greek night every Friday, which is good fun.The villa is quite central so most journeys took 30 mins. You will definitely need a car.Lovely stay in a great villa, can highly recommend
