Thnk you <3
Stephanie G, Port Talbot UKDate of stay: September 2022 The villa is very spacious with lots of different areas to relax and chill out. The pool is especially welcoming in the heat. Aircon and mosquito nets on all the windows provide a welcome relief from the outdoors. The kitchen is well equipped and a pleasure to use. The beds comfortable and plenty of space for clothes. Bathrooms exellent and provision of towels very adequate. As stated previously the villa could do with a deep clean at the end of season and was a little tired in places but on the whole did not bother us as a family. The view is outstanding and it is really quiet and relaxing. The hill to the villa is very steep and would not suit those less mobile but Barbati is perched on the side of a huge mountain so its nothing we did not expect. I would rate this villa 5 star if your looking for peace and tranquility as we were. Winner for us ✌️😊 ---- Our Response: Thank you so much for taking the time to post your review. We can’t apologise enough if you thought the cleaning wasn’t up to scratch. We would usually check the villas in advance of guests arrivals and our Housekeeper Nicole at Emerald Bay is usually very thorough and conscientious. The owners of the villa have allowed us the opportunity to renovate the property over the Winter and all being well there should be 2 new modern bathrooms and a new look for Summer 2023. Glad to see that you did enjoy your stay overall, you were a pleasure to host and we hope to see you again in the future.
Kathryn G, UKDate of stay: June 2022 Another 5* holiday booked through Prestige Villas; Could only give gardens 3* as mostly terrace. Positioned on the hillside and has fantastic views. Worth the climb, albeit very steep, at the end of the evening, great calorie burner! Barbati is reassuringly small and has enough restaurants, bakeries, supermarkets and bars to provide a good choice. Rent a boat at Spiros and visit the beautiful bays and restaurants along the North East coast. Loved this little villa, ticked every box for us and we are already planning our return. Fantastic service from Annabelle, Julia and Yannis at Ionian Travel Car Hire.

Jayne W, Callington UKDate of stay: September/October 2021 Very helpful and professional team who always responded promptly to any questions we had after booking .Originally due to holiday at the height of the COVID pandemic but our booking was easily changed to 2021 at no extra cost .The villa itself is good value for money with spectacular views. I agree with other reviews that if you have mobility issues the approach to the villa is extremely steep( we knew this when we booked so not a problem to us ).The location is perfect being just minutes away from the beach, restaurants & bars though far enough away for a good nights sleep.The villa itself is perfectly adequate to self cater as we did on several occassions & benefits from a slimline dishwasher so no dishes.The beds were comfortable & the aircon was appreciated during the warmer nights. We had a few minor niggles during our stay all of which were resolved promptly by Annabelle & the team.I would highly recommend booking with Prestige Villas and would not hesistate to do so again in the future. Many thanks to you all once again.
David L, Sheffield UKDate of stay: September 2021 The villa was clean and the welcoming pack was a very nice touch. The pool was small and half of it was very shallow. The facilities were very good and the TV programmes and film choice were excellent. The barbecue was supplied with fuel which was a nice considerate touch. Overall the villa was very good with only 2 issues from our point of view. Although the villa is near the sea the hills are very steep and difficult to walk up. There seems to be a resident cat(s) and this gave me serious allergy problems. The cleaners were good in trying to alleviate the problem but it was still an issue.
