testimonials
Wir kamen in dem kleinen Dorf Vafes an und waren schon vom Ort begeistert. Aber die Unterkunft war einfach nur ein Traum. Ein neu renoviertes Steinhaus auf mehrere Appartements aufgeteilt. Einen kleinen Swimmingpool gab es auch. Das Appartement war gut ausgestattet, d. h. es war alles drin was wir brauchten. Es ist ein Ort um zu entspannen und ebenso liegen viele Sehenswürdigkeiten in nächster Umgebung. Ein eigenes Auto ist allerdings notwendig. Wir werden auf alle Fälle wieder hierher kommen. Der einzige Nachteil ist vielleicht, und darüber kann man sicherlich streiten, dass es dort kein W-Lan gibt, allerdings gleich um die Ecke in dem gastfreundlichen kleinen Kafenion. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit dort.
