Villa Anastasia is very charming with a lovely private patio and pool area. The village has two tavernas, we only had time to try one, but the food and hospitality were great.
Charming property, Prinés is a small authentic village, an ideal place to recharge your batteries. Traditional family restaurants, and grocery stores within walking distance, particularly warm welcome from the locals, walks full of wild animals that totally change, between sheep and turtles. Car recommended to discover the sea and its surroundings. The cats surrounding this house are worthy of love. We were delighted with the communication with the owner, kind and responsive.
We had a really nice time at Villa Anastasia and enjoyed our vacation very much. Artemis has contacted us shortly before the vacation and was also otherwise super to reach. The house is very, very clean. As shown in the pictures. The garden is very beautiful. There are many olive trees and flowers. In the garden is a barbecue, which we used once. Especially the house cat was a highlight of our stay.
