Zen Club Luxury Villas Review, Kolymbia Rhodes: Our Stay At Villa Koan

Published on November 3, 2025November 5, 2025 by VictoriaLeave a comment

If you’ve ever scrolled through villa photos and wondered whether a wide-angle lens is making everything look twice the size, you’re not alone.

That’s exactly what I thought when we booked Villa Koan at Zen Club Luxury Villas in Kolymbia, Rhodes. The villas looked incredibly modern and sleek, but I half expected them to feel a lot smaller in real life.

They didn’t.

When we arrived, we were genuinely amazed. Villa Koan felt even bigger and more impressive than the photos. Everything looked new, fresh and beautifully finished, and from that first step inside, we had the feeling we’d chosen somewhere special.

This review shares exactly what our stay was like, from the late-night arrival and first impressions to the bedrooms, bathrooms, pool, location and who I think this villa is best for.

Tropical Pressure Festival Review 2025: Family-Friendly Fun in Cornwall

Published on August 8, 2025October 17, 2025 by VictoriaLeave a comment

After falling in love with Tropical Pressure Festival in 2024, we couldn’t resist returning for the 2025 edition.

Set in the beautiful surroundings of Mount Pleasant Eco Park in Cornwall, this small but vibrant world-music festival quickly became a family favourite for its friendly atmosphere, fully plant-based food offerings, and manageable size.

This year, we found the festival to be very similar to last year — and that’s a big part of its charm.

The familiar layout, activities, and overall vibe made it feel instantly welcoming.

In this review, I’ll share what Tropical Pressure is all about, what’s changed (and stayed the same) since last year, and why it remains one of our must-attend summer events.

If you’re thinking about going for the first time, this will give you a taste of what to expect.
