Zemeno Arachovas : locations de vacances

As I write this review, I’m on my to work for the first time after our two-week vacation in Greece. It’s dark and already very cold in Oslo, Norway October 17th, 2024. Our vacation was divided into two parts, 10 days was spent in this house and 4 days in Athens. We were stunned by the beauty of Alyki, it was a gift by mother nature, presented carefully and thoughtfully by men, in this case, Christos and his mother Matina. The house was built as we’ve learned, by Matina and her late husband Antonio. The large veranda overlooking the bay/ocean was spectacular! The private beach was 2mins to walk from the house. The house was very well equipped with everything you’ll possibly need. Christos even helped my husband to find a gas canister for his bike rides for him to be able to cook. We were gifted from days 1 to 10. Our daughter Olivia who is just under two loved being here as well. She even got her own swing, we also adored the cat-pany. Christos&Matina, thank you again for everything.

An absolutely stunning house. Perfect location, peaceful and pastoral. We really enjoyed our stay here! The house is welcoming, and the hosts, Christos and Labrimi, greeted us warmly. They took care of us beyond what we needed, even providing us with warm, fresh bread straight from the oven, strawberry jam, and pomegranate liqueur made by Labrimi's wonderful hands. Their patience and friendly approach towards our noisy children were truly appreciated. We can say we fell in love with them at first sight and would be happy to return here on another occasion. The house is well-equipped and comfortable, close to the sea with a beautiful and quiet beach. There are charming villages nearby and plenty of restaurants. There are many hiking areas as well. Wonderful! Highly recommend!

Das Beach House war leicht zu finden, Schlüsselübergabe ohne persönlichen Kontakt. Wir hatten den obersten Stock für uns (nicht das ganze Beach House, wie wir ursprünglich dachten!). Guter großer Parkplatz am Gelände, die Wohnung geräumig, von Interieur her gemütlich, aber schon einige Jahrzehnte alt. Es war alles soweit sauber, der Boden nur etwas staubig und ein paar Haare im (sonst ganz frischen) Bettzeug. Wir haben uns trotz kleiner Mängel (wie zb Einbruchsspuren an der oberen Tür, die kaum ausgebessert sind) wohl gefühlt. Die Lage am Meer mit täglich spektakulärem Sonnenuntergang und Terrasse, die praktisch ums ganze obere Stockwerk verläuft, ist super schön und der Steinstrand vor der Tür ermöglicht es, das Meer sehr zu genießen. Es gibt keinen natürlichen Schatten, aber Sonnenschirme im Stiegenhaus der Wohnung (das auch für andere zugänglich ist, weil dort auch Putzmittel für andere Wohnungen verwahrt wird). Im Haus sind 3 Wohnungen, in fußläufiger Nähe kl. Shops, Tavernen,...)

A great location exactly as described. The pool area is clean and has it's own bathroom. It's a short distance from the village centre in a quiet location. While it is walkable a car is essential. The kitchen was well appointed and clean. The view from the terrace is superb. We booked it for six people which meant that the upper floor was unavailable. I retrospect we should have booked the whole house as the view from these rooms must be spectacular!

We had a great stay! Location excellent and house had everything we needed. Recommend!

We loved the apartment. Big and airy with everything you needed. Maria was a great host,

Το σπιτι ήταν άψογο, σε πολύ καλή τοποθεσία με ωραία θέα. Η οικοδέσποινα αρκετά φιλόξενη και πρόθυμη για οποιαδήποτε βοήθεια. Το συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα!

The hosts where very friendly and welcoming. We stayed at the house as a group of ten people. There was enough space for everyone and it’s also possible to keep a little distance as well if needed. The view from the house on the sea and the surrounding area are stunning. The pool is a great all day alternative to the sea. Even though just a quick walk down the hill there are small beaches which are mostly only used by locals and where relatively quiet. The house offered everything we needed to have a pleasant stay and it offers also big outdoor kitchen for a bbq. There is also a big terras especially nice for a sunset gathering. We where quite isolated there and where almost the only guests in the area. We very much enjoyed this peace and quiet but bear in mind that for the next bigger city or any others bigger attraction you might have to drive for quite a while. The small town has a supermarket and a choice of good restaurants though, so you should be covered.
