We are so, so happy with our stay in this Airbnb. First, the town of Anogia is just… special. You feel far away from the tourist scene, and up close with the locals. Some of the mountain towns we stayed in were sleepy with an aging population, but Anogia is lively and vibrant with a lot of young families.
This Airbnb is right on the main square of the lower village. There is a coffee/ice cream shop right across the path, a charming older woman selling hand woven tablecloths that she made (of course we had to get one!), and a taverna just on the other side of the ice cream/coffee cafe.
Inside the Airbnb, it is beautiful, impeccably decorated and clean. There are local welcome drinks and all the toiletries you need. Checkin was easy with a lockbox. The host wasn’t in the area but her father was. The host kept great communication the entire time and was a real delight, both before we booked and through our entire stay. This Airbnb has no air conditioning, and we stayed comfortable enough with the provided fan and dehumidifier, even though we were there during the worst heat wave in Greece in 40 years. Kely provided a fantastic dinner recommendation for our second night which allowed us to enjoy amazing live music. This stay was truly a treat, and we have told everyone that in 14 days of traveling, our stay in Anogia was our favorite for an immersive experience!
