Nice compact villa, everything you need is there and a lovely outside eating area. It’s a 5 minute walk to Castara beach passing a few shops bars and restaurants on the way. The locals were very friendly and the sea is great for swimming and safe for children too.

The Golden Apple Villa will always hold a place in our hearts and we look forward to returning again. In fact, we're a little reluctant to tell you how good it is, in case it's booked next time we visit! But it's only fair to share what an incredible place this is, with a gorgeous gazebo for sunsets and bird and watching, surrounded by its own (very well maintained) garden. The villa is therefore private and managed extremely well by the Taylor family; it's kept very clean, with all the amenities you could wish for. There are two decent sized bedrooms (one double and a twin) with plenty of space for your belongings. The lounge area and kitchen are ample too... we could have lived there forever but holidays have to end some time. The walk to the beaches in Big and Little Bays (aka Heavenly) is not far, and coming back up the hill was ideal for our exercise routine, although of course you can drive. The local supermarket is well stocked and the villagers could not have been more welcoming... When rules allow, the nightlife is authentic and vibrant. We're so grateful for the kind attention and continuous hospitality extended by Bruce and Tiauna. We look forward to returning in the future and will be sure to book in advance!
