A great and idyllic place on the sea!

We, family of 4, stayed for one week in August. Simply a very nice place, of the beaten track, next to a winery. Anna, the owner, makes you really feel taken care of (she has plenty of tips for sight-seeing, great tips for restaurants - and on the top of it access to Saskia, a great tour-guide), the house is wonderful (we even got a midweek cleaning!) and the private beach at the end of the garden is really picture perfect. We enjoyed the sunset from the garden and spent hours reading in the great garden while the children were playing. It could not have been better. We had a great time and we will definitely come back.

Idyllic!!

We recently spent a thoroughly enjoyable week at the Villa Ilida. Anna is fantastic and the villa is excellent. Very well located in a secluded spot, yet easy to get to, the villa is ideal if you are looking to get away from it all. The surrounding region is beautiful with little villages scattered around, the Domaine Mercouri wine estate next door and of course, the sea! The villa feels like a home away from home and Anna is a wonderfully kind and helpful host. We'll be back!

Paradies!

wir haben 14 Tage hier verbracht und haben die Zeit sehr genossen! Die Freundlichkeit von Anna - der Gastgeberin, die Gemütlichkeit und Sauberkeit des Hauses, der herrliche Garten und der direkte Zugang zum Meer - Herz was willst du mehr. Die Gegend ist sehr ruhig, es gibt gute Lokale in der Umgebung. In Summe der perfekte Platz zum Ausspannen.

Wonderful, peaceful location!

My family had a great time at Villa Ilida! We loved the peace and quiet. The house is spacious and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The main area is perfect for hanging out, reading and relaxing. My husband and children would gather in this area after a long day of touring and swimming. The rocky beach at the end of the property is great in the morning/ early afternoon as the water is calm and refreshing. We spent many days here swimming. We did bring our own beach towels but bought the very thin shammy kind so they didn't take up too much space in our luggage. Water shoes are also recommended. The main area does not have AC but it's not really needed as the ceilings are high and the house stays cool with the ocean breeze. The bedrooms are equipped with AC. Having a kitchen and laundry facilities was perfect for us. There are a few small grocery stores in the area we visited to pick up items. The restaurants we visited were wonderful as well. We also toured the Mercouri Winery next door. We had a simple wine tasting and self-toured the property. Very charming and we even bought a few bottles of wine as we were visiting family in the area and didn't want to arrive empty handed! Anna lives next door and is such a sweet lady. She's full of helpful advice. She had fresh fruit and drinks available when we arrived. Very welcoming! We would definitely return and highly recommend this location.

What makes this property unique

proximity to the sea : the villa is linked to a bay with a footpath that is almost 1 minute walk away and which is fully accessible and children can easily use it. There is no road between the house and the footpath to the sea . The bay has a sealadder and a deck with umbrellas and sunbeds and both children and adults can swim here.
amazing sunsets
large garden
the homely atmosphere of the house ( with antique furniture and paintings of the owner)
Many sights of interest nearby : Ancient Olympia ( 30 min by car )
Picturesque Katakolo : a liitle seaside village with many taverns and shops ( 5 minutes by car)
Non touristy, authentic greek villages in the surrounding area with many taverns .
Sandy beaches nearby ( the nearest 3 klm away) Some of the beaches are organised with beachbar and sunbeds while others are not.
Winery Mercouri within walking distance to get your local wine.
