  I will definitely come back here in the future if I have the opportunity to travel to Greece again.

  This was our last stop on this 20-day trip to Greece, as my husband had a fall before we left and needed to be hospitalized for an emergency surgery, so it ended up being just me, my mother, and my two children. What touched me most was that when I spoke to Malia about this difficulty, she enthusiastically took on the task of being our driver and tour guide, and on the first day took us around the nearby village of Marathon, the birthplace of the famous Battle of Marathon, and then to the supermarket, where she had actually prepared a very large amount of food and drinks for us in the fridge beforehand. In the evening she took us to a beach a little further away and ate the most famous Greek tacos in the area, which we were embarrassed that we didn't get to eat until the last two days! On the second and third day she similarly took us to another, much better beach nearby which had finer sand, turquoise blue water and was less crowded but lacking in everything, the locals stayed all day. Malia was also kind enough to order takeaway for us to save us money and get local specialties, which was really touching. The amazing villa is two-story, it's an old stone house with a lot of character. It's especially worth mentioning that each house is decorated differently and with decorative details everywhere, embroidered tablecloths, cross-stitched situations, braided rugs and so on, as well as little things that Malia has collected from all over the world, which all add to the cozy atmosphere of the house. The location is perfect, a five or six minute drive to the beach if you rent a car. The villa is quiet, the yard has beautiful delphiniums and unknown cactus-like plants, and the hammocks and swings are a favourite of the kids. It's not a popular tourist destination, but it was our favourite place on the trip. No crowds or souvenir stores, just a welcoming landlord and a beautiful house that allowed us to live the vacation life of a local.

  None.
