Mulberry Villa is a wonderful place to relax in secluded luxury. The reality of the villa was just as nice as the listing images. The villa came well-equipped with appliances, dishes and towels; everything we needed for our stay. The washing machine was much appreciated to keep our clothes fresh. A dishwasher is also provided. For the ladies, we found multiple hair dryers in the closets and cabinetry. The backyard features the pool and a beautiful stone patio on which a wood-fired permanent stone grill rests. We visited in winter and didn't utilize the pool, but at very least it provided a vibrant ambiance for our stay. The villa has three bedrooms (two small beds in one, for kids) and a generous couch. As a party of two, we enjoyed having ample space in this property.
The villa is just outside Stoupa; close enough to walk to in ten minutes through the beautiful olive groves, but just far enough away to ensure the exclusivity of the site. Agios Nikolaos, a nearby fishing village with its own restaurants, can be accessed via a nicely-maintained walking path along the coast. Taking this ~40-minute walk (each way) is highly recommended on a nice day for anyone who visits. The villa grounds has remote-controlled gates which we closed at night, though we felt perfectly safe in this property.
Stavros, the owner/property manager is a kind and reliable gentlemen. His English is excellent, which led to smooth communications, as we know no Greek. When our Athens HomeAway rental was found to be uninhabitable on arrival, a last-minute inquiry to Stavros led to a very smooth earlier-than-planned arrival at Mulberry thanks to his wonderful responsiveness. Stavros lives nearby and checked on us a few times during the stay, in a non-intrusive way, to ensure that everything was going well. He provided wood and fire-lighting supplies for the fireplace, which really added to the charming ambiance.
For those visiting from America, be aware that electricity is much more expensive in Greece and any rental you utilize will often come with a key-card on the keychain that has to be inserted to turn on the electricity. (the refrigerator is on an always-on circuit) Also, clothes dryers will not be featured in most places with washing machines. This villa provided a drying rack which worked quite well.
We had a very peaceful, relaxing stay and would recommend this villa to anybody.
