Liotopi Hotel, Halkidiki

Liotopi is a charming and friendly establishment, well-run by Loulou. It is nestled in a lush garden just 50m from the sea and opposite the small fishing harbour, placing guests only a minute's walk from the start of Olymbiada's long sandy beach. A delightful breakfast, featuring homemade jams and cakes, is served in the colourful front garden, which offers ample seating and shade. Dinner can be enjoyed at the Akroyiali restaurant, also just a minute's walk away.

M Bennet, Guest - We were so very pleased with the Liotopi Hotel: Small and friendly, very clean and comfortable, delightful breakfasts, great location and owned and run by an absolute treasure, Loulou. Olymbiada is a great little place if you like things quiet and unpretentious, with just enough choice of restaurants and cafes and lovely, safe swimming. The adjacent remains of the ancient town of Stagiera make an interesting visit and the surrounding countryside is beautiful. All very relaxing!

S. Haynes, Guest - A lovely little hotel providing excellent clean accommodation, the staff provided fabulous customer service. The service we received from Sunvil, from booking, transfers and accommodation was first class.

Oasis Scala Beach, Agistri

We believe the 4-star Oasis Scala Beach Hotel is Agistri's finest. It is situated directly above Skala's sandy beach, only a couple of minutes' easy walk from the village centre, which offers a wide selection of tavernas, cafés, and small shops.

A very nice pool, only a few yards from the beach, liked the idea of being able to book beach beds and parasols the evening before required. All in all an amazing holiday, enjoyed by all.

Ms S Hunt, Guest - It's a lovely friendly hotel with great staff and good food.

Kastro Houses, Kardamili

Situated within an olive grove, these four exceptional detached stone houses offer unparalleled standards of privacy and tranquility. Located just a 7-8 minute walk (500m) from Kardamili village and a mere 5 minutes from the finest part of the beach, the Kastro Houses are undoubtedly the best we have encountered in this exquisite region. We wholeheartedly recommend a stay here.

Jackie, Sunvil - A very high standard of accommodation

Jordan, Sunvil - A very unique property with a wonderful design and feel that are not far from the town and amenities yet nestled in wonderful olive groves with a peaceful feel

Claire, Sunvil - These houses are a gem. Proudly run and cared for by the owner who welcomes you with an open house and garden!

Mark, Sunvil - Stylish accommodation

C. Stones, Guest - Fantastic accommodation in the most beautiful quiet location, even though it is so close to the best beach in the area, and a lovely easy walk into the local village. The accommodation is of a very high standard as you would expect with Sunvil and the owners were unbelievably helpful and friendly.

E. Russell, Guest - Fab! The location in the olive groves was beautiful - very peaceful and very well appointed. Kastro taverna is also very good - a traditional Greek taverna. The owner was very helpful - especially when we experienced major electrical problems due to hurricane force winds on the last two days of our stay!

A. Branton, Guest - Great location and facilities. The owner, Petros, was very welcoming and the food at his nearby taverna delicious.

Palm Trees Hotel, Lefkas

The excellent, family-run Palm Trees Hotel is ideally located right on the beach, offering modern, comfortable rooms with superb views. It's a peaceful retreat, yet only a few minutes' walk from Nidri’s lively waterfront, with its array of restaurants, café-bars, and shops. It truly embodies the Sunvil standard.

Jackie, Sunvil - Very friendly staff. The lively resort village of Nidri is within walking distance.

Jordan, Sunvil - Julie, our local representative, is a big reason this hotel is so popular - our clients love her. The location is also fantastic and they are very well looked after which is why we get so many repeaters

Claire, Sunvil - The setting is on the edge of the sea looking out to the island of Onassis (Skorpios) and Meganissi, quiet yet within minutes walk of every amenity and our returning guests are treated like family.

Mark, Sunvil - Good breakfast and very accommodating hosts

D. Amiss, Guest - We have visited Palm Trees many times (which speaks for itself) so it feels like a second home. Our Sunvil rep, Julie, is brilliant. Nothing is too much trouble for her and she seems able to cope with anything. The hotel is beautiful and we can’t fault the staff… rooms are kept clean, sheets and towels are changed frequently, the bar/kitchen staff are friendly and helpful. Thanks to Dina and Nikos for another great holiday and we look forward to seeing you again next year.

B. Darling, Guest - We visited the Palmtrees in 2018 and always said we’d like to return.We should not have waited so long as we were really looked after, as if we were part of the family. Nikos, the owner, was so welcoming and helpful, making the holiday so special, we won’t leave it so long next time. Each morning we opened the curtains to look out on the calm, clear blue sea and couldn’t believe how lucky we were! IDYLLIC.

R. Medhurst, Guest - My third visit to this delightful, small, family owned and run hotel. Always welcoming and friendly owners and staff who will do anything for you. Amazing views not only from the beach but from every sea-facing room and decent sized balcony. A flat gentle 10 minute stroll into the heart of town, tavernas, port (with ferries/boat trips) and shops with other tavernas and shops even closer.  I would be very happy to thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Villa Afrodite Hotel, Lemnos

Villa Afrodite Hotel, a stylish boutique hotel with approximately 30 rooms, offers exceptional standards of comfort and is nestled within beautiful, flower-filled gardens.

J. Mitchell, Guest - We spent a relaxing week at this lovely place. This is our 4th visit to Limnos Island with Sunvil. We can highly recommend a stay at Villa Afrodite. Everything you need for a fantastic stay is provided for at this hotel. The owners and staff are very welcoming and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Our room had a balcony with a sea view. Breakfast was excellent. We would also like to mention our fab Sunvil rep Annette who is always so friendly and helpful and always goes the extra mile for her customers.

A. Radnor, Guest - The owners of this hotel on the quiet island of Lemnos. Afroditi and Peter, go out of their way to make your stay extremely enjoyable. The rooms are equipped and maintained to a very high standard, many with sea views looking over a garden enhanced by topiary. I have stayed there many times and the owners are constantly making many subtle improvements. Highly recommended.

Its prime location offers breathtaking views directly opposite the bustling jetty, allowing guests to witness the gentle rhythm of village life unfold before their eyes.

Jackie, Sunvil - Right on the harbour front, close to a choice of tavernas and bars

Jordan, Sunvil - I really like this one, its location is perfect - you're in the town with a nice buzz around and great views from the balcony

Claire, Sunvil - Loggos is the place I think of when people use the word 'honeymoon', Alecas is an independent, stylishly finished house in the epicenter of it all looking over the sea whilst people watching the Greek island way of life!

W. Jeffrey, Guest - Lovely, well equipped cottage, in the perfect location.

J. Salter, Guest - Perfect location in a lovely village. The view from the cottage would be hard to improve upon.

Envision commencing your day by watching the sunrise over the Ionian Sea while enjoying your morning coffee, or being the first to enter the tranquil waters for your pre-breakfast swim.

Jackie, Sunvil - Right by the the sea with large private patio areas

Chris, Sunvil - There are not many properties where you can wake up on a beach and have it all to yourself for your morning swim before the rest of the village wakes, yet have a taverna on your doorstep and walking distance of a lovely fishing village with an array of shops bars and tavernas. Just perfect.

Jordan, Sunvil - I think that its location just on the beach is a big plus 

Kellie, Sunvil - Tranquil surroundings on the beachfront but close enough to Loggos harbour (5-10 minute walk). A personal favourite of mine!

Trusted Guest - Excellent holiday in every way. The Beach House is in the perfect location for a quiet holiday close to Loggos village and super close to Levrecchio Beach.

Trusted Guest - The Beach House is lovely. Its terrace is wonderful. Swimming in the early morning was a delight but the beach itself does get very busy during the day. This is when the terrace comes into its own - a very private spot. The taverna next door was great. A bit more traditionally Greek than some of the waterside tavernas in Loggos

Eleni's Cottage, Kefalonia

Eleni's Cottage offers comfort and seclusion for guests seeking proximity to the sea and convenient pedestrian access to the centre of Fiscardo. It is ideally suited for couples or a small family.

Jackie, Sunvil - A traditional cottage close to Fiscardo
