Beautiful place, excellent hosts
I treated my kids and grandkids ranging from 2 to 16 years old to a long weekend vacay before start of school. It was our first farmstay experience. The place was great! Beds were comfy, kitchen had everything we needed, pool was great and thoroughly enjoyed by the grandkids. Most of all, our hosts Monica and Slav were ideal. They went for that extra mile, being patient with booking hiccups, personally welcoming us, clarifying house rules, bringing the grandkids to the animals for a feed, setting up the bonfire. The overall experience exceeded everyone's expectations! Thank you again Monica and Slav for a wonderful stay.

Wonderful long weekend
We had a lovely Easter long weekend at Eco Olive Farmstay. The kids loved feeding the animals, building fires in the firepit, and even went for a swim despite the cold. The games room was also great for when the weather wasn't great. Highly recommended. Thank you Monica and Slav!
