Lovely views but run down inside

We really enjoyed our week in this villa. Amazing views, lovely pool. We knew from the reviews about the 70 steps and the steep drive and these were not an issue for us. However, we were disappointed with the eating outside options. The only tables were made of thick stone and retained significant heat from the day and scratched your legs if you tried to sit under them. We ended up eating indoors instead a lot. Arthur was very helpful when we checked in. And Thalia sent us useful messages. But we didn’t receive any response for two days when we asked for help with the dishwasher breaking down and flooding the kitchen. So we had to clear up and wash all by hand instead. And the TV does not work at all. It seems there is no cable or aerial. Again, no help when we asked for it. It’s a shame but the villa feels quite neglected and the support to fix issues is not there.

Fantastic views

Views from villa are amazing both during the day and night time. Loved the outside space and pool. The drive is very steep and it would be extremely hard, if not impossible, to drag suitcases up it so a car is a must. Would recommend a larger than a 1 litre car though, good run up, foot flat down and hope the car makes it to the top! From the top of the drive there are approx 70 stone steps up to the villa so would not recommend staying here if you have problems with mobility. The villa itself is nice inside but could do with updating. Having said this I would stay there again.

Amazing view!

Villa PETRA is located up a very steep driveway with approx 70 steps with an outstanding view of both Nidri and Vhilo Bay. The outside space is huge and beautifully rustic, nighttime is magical with the pool and villa lighting. Views from both bedrooms and the lounge are just stunning. Inside the villa is spotless clean, and spacious with usual facilities such as washing machine, dishwasher etc. The air-conditioning is very good! The lounge area is rustic and beautiful. Some areas are a little tired and dated but this did not affect a comfortable enjoyable stay. We walked to Nidri most evenings, it takes about 25mins on flat road, and took taxi back each night for only 6 Euro. It is a short 15min walk in the opposite direction to Vhilo Bay for delicious bakery, couple of small supermarkets and breakfast at the Quay Cafe. This is our 3rd year to Nidri, the first stay in this villa and would definitely return to Villa Petra. The only minor negative we had was an issue with the ensuite toilet but the owner came to fix it that evening whilst we went out for dinner.

Great experience

Great experience! The owner was really kind, he expected us with food, drinks and helped us with the luggages. The property has a great view with a very nice and clean pool. The house is really well equipped with all that you need for your stay. Also I have to mention that the access on the stairs is not hard at all, it takes only 2 minutes. I really recommend this property.

Great outdoor space with great pool and lovely views

A functional 2 bed villa with a really great outdoor space. The pool is a good size (we estimated 10 x 4m) and there are 2 patio areas with various places to sit or lounge around in and out of shade. Yes, it's up a very steep drive - as in the description and noted by other reviews - but the reward of the views is fantastic - of the bay and out to the local islands. It was as impressive during the day as well at night. We could hear traffic from the nearby road but not enough to bother us. Inside the villa... Positives: a pleasant open plan living/kitchen area that was very clean, the bedrooms had quality sheets and it had everything a family of four could need for a very enjoyable holiday. Best of all aircon for a cool nights sleep. Some minor negative points: The cleaning lady hosed down the outside area 5pm the night before we left rather than doing it when we'd checked out the following morning - whilst we were still there and using the space. She didn't stop when we asked her to, seeming not to understand. Some of the bathroom & kitchen fittings were dated, electrical points loose and appliances like the toaster did not work. The double bed had an end so uncomfortable for anybody tall whose feet stick over the end of a normal bed. But these were minor things and, overall, we had a fantastic holiday both at the villa as well as out and about in the beautiful local area. We would stay again and would highly recommend this villa to other families.

FANTASTIC VIEW

Had a lovely 2 week holiday in Villa Petra last 2 weeks June 2017 . Yes the driveway is steep but is ok and you can turn round at the top. Also, the 70 steps are manageable and you are rewarded with the most wonderful view from the terrace. Our flight was delayed and we did not arrive until 1.00am but the owner still waited to greet us! This was very much appreciated. We would definitely stay here again.

Great villa

Stayed at this villa for the second time. The villa is well equipped with everything you need and was spotlessly clean. The towels and sheets were changed twice weekly, and the villa cleaned. The pool and outdoor space is fantastic and the views are wonderful. The only downside is the steep driveway and seventy steps to reach the villa, therefore not suitable for anyone with mobility problems. The owner was friendly, although he doesn't speak much English, but Thalia was always available on the phone for any queries we had and she speaks good English. The restaurants and bars are a 30 minute walk and a taxi costs about 5 or 6 euros. Overall a fantastic holiday and we would certainly return to this villa

Great Villa for friends and family

Me and 4 friends hired the villa for a week and had an amazing time. The villa itself is great with a nice table outside and a great pool (the views are great). Its not overlooked either but there are other people nearby. There are 2 single beds (can be 3) and one double bed and a man there to help you with anything that you need throughout your stay, he lives very close. The villa is only 5 minuets drive from one of the island's main towns and is nearby the main road (don't worry you can't hear it) so you can get everywhere easily. A car is definatly needed though as the islands public transport is not great. Just one note: the driveway is very steap so we parked the car on the road in a small layby and the shower is not very strong - but these were small details and I would definalty recommend this villa.

Excellent Villa

Family of 2 Adults and 2 Children had a fantastic week at 'The Stone Villa' in August 2011. Inside of villa was well equiped, modern and very clean and a good size for 4. The air conditioning worked very well - very efficient and quiet. The best bit of the villa though is the outdoor space. There is a large patio with tables at the front and side of the house with steps leading down to another large patio area which contains the pool. The large pool was lovely and clean with great sea views. Pool area is also very quite and private and not overlooked at all. Pictures on the website do not really do justice to the outdoor areas. The Villa is a fairly easy drive from Lefkas-Prevaza airport, although it would have been nice to have had better driving directions especially as we arrived in the dark. Thalia was very helpful with local information & taxis! It would be possible to walk to the main town of Nidri, but the walk is along a busy road and with the scorching August heat we never attempted it. We simply ordered a taxi for the short drive. Cost was 5-10 Euros which seemed to depend on which driver you got! Beware of trying to get taxis on Saturday evening though, as they all seem to be on Airport runs. There are a few restaurants closer to the villa in Vliho although we never tried these as we loved the restaurant area in Nidri whre there was a huge choice of restaurants. The Restaurant staff were very friendly and genuine and we had lovely food at each meal. We were usually offered free extras such as Ice creams, coffee and wine! Meal cost was also cheaper than Spain and France. Only real downside to the villa is the number of steps to get there so not really suitable for young children or those who struggle with steps. The upside of this though is the fantastic views from the villa Nidri has all the usual facilities of a holiday resort and good selection of watersports. Do try to hire a small motor boat if you can it is very easy to drive around a few of the satellite islands just off the coast and Meganassi is a lovely stop for lunch. A great day out We stay regularly in villas around europe and would definately recommend this villa. A car is necessary to make the most of the area.

Schöne Villa in der Nähe von Nidri

Die Villa hat eine sehr schöne Außenanlage mit einer herrlichen Aussicht über die Bucht und bis Nidri. Die Inneneinrichtung ist leider bereits etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Die Ausstattung mit Küchenutensilien ist sehr einfach. Für die Kommunikation mit dem sehr freundlichen Vermieter ist in jedem Fall Google-Translator zu empfehlen, ansonsten müssen Hände und Füße herhalten... Die Nähe zu Nidri ist sehr angenehm, wenn man hin und wieder etwas touristischen Trubel genießen möchte. Wer geräuschempfindlich ist, den könnte die Nahe Verbindungsstraße nach Vasiliki stören.

Villa mit super Ausblick

Von der Lage her vielleicht die schönste Villa, die wir je gemietet haben. Die Agentur ist leider sehr distanziert. Der Eigentümer ist sehr nett, spricht aber leider nur albanisch. Mit einem Übersetzungsprogramm funktioniert die Kommunikation im Wesentlichen. Er hat uns sehr nett empfangen, mit Getränken im Kühlschrank und war uns behilflich beim Koffertragen. Er hat auch unser Auto die steile Auffahrt hinauf gefahren, was wir uns selber nicht getraut hatten. Die Treppen sind für Menschen mit Gehbehinderung oder kleine Kinder nicht geeignet, aber ansonsten hat man von oben eine tolle Aussicht. Der Pool war super als Erfrischung nach einem warmen Tag. Die Toilette beim Hauptschlafzimmer hat ein Wasserdruckproblem - wir haben das andere Badezimmer genutzt. Die Betten waren sehr gut. Die Küchenausstattung auch. Wifi funktioniert nicht. Trotz kleinerer Abstriche empfehle ich dieses Haus !

In der Beschreibung des Objekts wird nicht darauf hingewiesen, dass es eine sehr steile, gefährliche Auffahrt hat, sowie 70 Stufen zu überwinden sind, eine Zumutung.Ein Bad wie nur bedingt benutzbar.Austattung der Küche ,z.Bsp., ein Weinglas, eine Pfanne 15cm Durchm.Das Wasser wurde mit einer Wasserpumpe lautstark nach oben gepumpt, sehr störend.

Perfekte Lage - Perfekte Aussicht - Fast perfektes Haus

Der Check-in war etwas mühsam, da Arthuro kein Englisch/Deutsch/Französisch spricht. Aber er ist ein toller Typ (wohnt im benachbarten Haus) der Probleme in und um das Haus - die es nicht gab - sicher sofort gelöst hätte. Das Haus wude in der Woche einmal gereinigt. Arthuro hat die Außenanlagen (Terasse, Pool-Bereich) gepflegt. Die Lage des Haus, die Außenanlagen (Pool, Terrassen etc.) und die Aussicht sind perfekt. Das Haus liegt am Hang, also erst ein sehr steiler Weg hochfahren und dann noch 70 Stufen hochgehen - der Aublick dann ist aber genial! Wer auf stabiles Internet/WLAN angewiesen ist entweder selbst privat oder beruflich oder für Kinder/Jugendliche wird hier enttäuscht. Es gibt einen neuen Smart-TV, der aber nicht an irgendwelche Antennen/SAT-Anlagen angeschlossen ist und - ohne stabiles Internet - ist er aber auch nicht zu gerbauchen. Aber uns hat beides nicht gestört.
