My family of 5 stayed in the blue villa, with 2 children in one bedroom, 1 adult in another bedroom and my husband and I on the fold out sofa bed (which was comfortable and easy enough to set up at night and put away in the morning).

The view was gorgeous and the weather was wonderfully hot. Demi was supremely helpful, she even sorted out our car hire for us! There is so much to do on the island, we went sea kayaking and snorkeling, there are lots of nice restaurants nearby (Steps in Samos does the best food on the island). Samos is an excellent place to holiday – it is geared up for tourists, so has lots to do, but is not overly touristy, so tack is kept to a pleasant minimum.

The greatest advantage of the villas it their proximity to Livadaki beach, which, in the opinion of my family, was simply the best on the island. However, don’t be tempted to walk there, it’s further from the road than you think! It has a surprisingly excellent bar serving food and drinks, you don’t have to pay for the umbrellas and the sea water stays shallow for a long way out. It’s perfect for snorkeling and is small enough to feel intimate.

All in all, it was a lovely stay and I would certainly recommend it!
