Going in October we weren't sure what the weather would be like, but it was superb - warm and sunny, definitely beach weather. The villa was ideally situated, with its own pool but overlooking the sea and a beach within a 2 minute walk. We were able to go into the nearest big town very easily, either by bus, taxi or car, where there was a large choice of restaurants and shops etc, but also there were 2 local tavernas by the beach which was ideal if you didn't fancy going very far. Everyone was very friendly and we were made to feel very welcome.
