Wow, I love peace & quiet

This is not the first villa holiday I've been on, but it set a new standard for us.
From the moment we chose the holiday the service and communication from the English owner was second to none, and the management company on the island were equally as helpful.
We have never visited Zante before so were please to find the island was freindly with all the things you need within walking distance of the villa, even with a toddler. The taxi at the airport was easy to arrange and we arrived at the villa in no time at all. The villa was clean and tidy, and very spacious, we settled in quickly and went to find the supermarket, the welcome pack and maps are particularly useful.
The first night was fantastic, the furniture and linens were clean and high quality (sorry but cheap towels and bedding is a bug bear), and the peace and quiet, wow. The following day we tried the pool, it is a definate must when baking in the sun, BBQ for dinner by the poolside with a cold beer. We holidayed as a pair of families with toddlers of the same age, so both sets of parents got the odd evening out, and the night life didn't let us down. Meals are good value and a good standard, the bars and clubs are lively and entertaining.
The beach was as promised about 15 minutes walk, and a definate for kids who have never seen fine sandy beaches. Once again the overwhelming feeling of the island during the day is of relaxation, there's plenty of places to eat out during the day with or without children.
We will definately be booking again for 2010.

Owner's Response: Zante is a great place to relax and the location of Villa Ella was carefully chosen as it feels such a special place. We're really glad the people who visit our special place enjoyed it the way we do. Regards the Owner
