A delightful place to stay

This is a gorgeously renovated traditional village house. Everything was clean and comfortable. The village of Agios Leon is up in the hills which are green and very beautiful an and is very central for visiting different areas of the island. There are two bakeries, several cafes and shops, and the excellent family-run San Leon Taverna which serves fantastic and excellent value food. Dionisis the host was very helpful both before and during the trip. He met us at the house when we arrived and explained everything in the house and made us feel very welcome and at home. Overall this is a great place to stay.

A very nice trip

We spent 10 days at Joya Village house and enjoyed our stay. Dennis` mother welcomed us kindly and instructed us in all the important details. The mountain village of Agios Leon has small shopping facilities and is home to two tavernas, which we can only recommend. The people are extremely friendly! Dennis himself recommended via messages countless great tips about the island and its hotspots. We visited a lot of places, some of them breathtaking. Although the mountain village is not centrally located, this was exactly what we had in mind and while driving to and from our daily destinations, we enjoyed the very green nature of the island. All in all, we had a wonderful time out on Zakynthos! As we are repeat offenders, a return is not out of the question! Many thanks at this point to Dennis! Claudia & Bernd

Magische Zeit auf Zakynthos im Dorfhaus Joya

Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und haben uns während unseres Aufenthalts im Joya Haus sehr wohl gefühlt! Wer Luxus erwartet ist allerdings hier falsch. Es ist eher ursprünglich, unberührt ohne schnick schnack aber das ist es was diese Insel ausmacht. Wir haben magische Momente erlebt die wir wohl nie vergessen werden. Im Ort scheint die Zeit stehen geblieben zu sein und man genießt einfach nur das schöne Leben auf dieser magischen Insel. Die Dorfbewohner sind sehr freundlich und herzlich sodass man sich sofort wohl fühlt. Der perfekte Ort um seine seelischen Akkus wieder voll zu laden. Vielen herzlichen Dank für diese schönen unvergesslichen Momente, wir werden euch nie vergessen und kommen gerne wieder. Danke auch an Dennis der sich immer wieder mit wertvollen Tipps und Hinweisen während des Aufenthalts bei uns gemeldet hatte. Es war großartig!

Wunderschöne Wochen im Joya Dorfhaus

Wir haben, mit 3 Erwachsenen und einem Kind, 11 Nächte in diesem wunderschönen Haus verbracht. Die Einrichtung ist in sehr gutem Zustand und von Kochgeschirr bis Duschgel und Waschmaschine ist alles im Haus vorhanden was man sich nur wünschen kann. Besonders schön ist der tolle Innenhof, in dem wir viele Abende verbringen durften. Der Gastgeber ist ein überaus freundlicher und zuvorkommender Mensch, der einem jeder Zeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite steht und einen mit tollen Ausflugstipps versorgt. Der Ort Agios Leon verfügt über ausgezeichnete Tavernen, eine Tankstelle, Bäcker und mehrere Märkte in denen man alles erhält was man für den täglichen Bedarf benötigt. Insgesammt eine wunderbare Region auf der Insel mit tollen Ausflugsmöglichkeiten. Besonders die 2 naheliegenden Strände haben uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Joya Dorfhaus

Wir haben uns in dem geschmackvoll eingeriteten Haus auf Anhieb sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht. Bei Ankunft nahm uns die herzliche Mutter von Dennis in Empfang und hat uns alles gezeigt. Der Innenhof ist ein Traum. Hier kann man ungestört unter den Reben sitzen. Über den Innenhof kommt man über eine Treppe in den 2. Stock zum Schlafzimmer mit angrenzendem Bad. Das Bett ist sehr bequem und wir haben wunderbar geschlafen. Dennis hat uns viele tolleTipps für Ausflüge gegeben. Wir empfehlen das Haus sehr gerne weiter. Es liegt sehr günstig mitten auf der Insel um mit dem Mietwagen in kurzer Zeit alle Sehenswürdigkeiten zu erreichen.

Cosy, clean and comfortable

We really loved our stay at this cottage on Zakynthos island. We felt we stayed in a tranquil space to chill out and take in the peaceful surroundings. The house is lovingly decorated and you feel very comfortable. Our host was very quick to respond and gave so many great tips! Location is also good to explore the whole island!

A charming village house that is very well equipped and very clean.

We had a wonderful stay at Joya Village House. The house is quaint and very clean and we loved sitting in the courtyard under the vines and on the balcony upstairs. Everything you need has been thought of. It is situated in a charming village. We loved going to the bakeries in the morning, greeting the locals and soaking up the village atmosphere. Dennis is an amazing host. He is so kind and helpful - nothing is a problem and he gives very good recommendations for sight seeing and places to eat. He maintains great communication with you during your stay. He was very thoughtful giving us wine and melons and full access to his own homemade olive oil and wine. Agios Leon is a very good location for touring the island. All of the major tourist sights are within easy reach and yet it is not inundated with tourists. We would thoroughly recommend staying in Joya Village House.

Greek Hospitality

The house is located in a village in the mountains of Zakynthos. It‘s really as nice as the pictures show it. We were being welcomed by our host with olive oil and wine made by the family - lovely. Dennis will provide you with any information you need: places to go out, beaches or if you want to rent a motor boat, just ask him. Also we found the people of Agios Leon very nice as it is far away from the touristic hotspots. It‘s still a traditional Greek village with a lot of charme. I hope we will return.
