'The villa was faultless and in a perfect setting, thanks to Tony and Julia for a beautiful villa and the relaxed and flexible organization’ - D.N & family North Yorks. 4/09/06.
‘We enjoyed a fab honeymoon here in Paxos. The villa was perfect, just what we wanted. Some days we didn't leave the terrace, the views and sunsets are amazing! The villa is almost a home from home. Lakka itself is charming, very laid back and no shortage of excellent eateries (recommend Nionios) all in all a brilliant holiday’ - D & A Mc. Glasgow. 30/10/06
‘We love this villa! Life on the verandah is good-the view is just perfect. Nice to have some books and C.D.'s- we re-acquainted ourselves with Pink Floyd one night and studied the stars! Lakka is very friendly and relaxed. The temperature peaked at 40 deg C this week and the villa still had a lovely breeze flowing through. Hope to be back one day’ - R&H & family Salisbury Wiltshire.
‘Out of 10...I would give this place a 100!’ - I.R. (12yrs)
