We’ve spent 2,5 weeks at George’s place and to say it was good means to say nothing!
We loved this place!
Brief info for other travelers: the studio fully correspond to the pictures and description. It’s really cozy, clean, and has stylish interior, it’s perfectly located far from busy streets and highway, but really close to beach and Karteros central street with lots of shops and cafes (10 min by bikes, which were provided by host). The kitchen has everything you may need, AC was working perfectly, WiFi was excellent, Apple TV and Netflix worked properly, there’re spare bed linen and towels, as well as two sun-beds. The host was responding promptly and helped a lot with any questions. The studio is located at a small farm with lots of animals (keep it in mind!).
Totally recommend!
Now, the main part.
We didn’t have a chance to meet George, but his parents Nikos and Fofo gave us an outstanding hospitality. Every now and then they offered us fruits from their garden, eggs and milk, as well as delicious homemade local Greek meals. It was fantastic! On the other hand, they never disturbed our living if we didn’t want to. One evening we accidentally locked our keys inside the studio and they helped us not saying a word. The other day Nikos helped me to fix the bike for my gf. They speak English a bit, but it wasn’t a problem, we understand each other well. On our first day Nikos gave us a ride to supermarket, waited outside while we were shopping and then took us back. There’s not enough words to pay our respect!
The studio is located at a small farm, so we were living side by side with lots of cats, chickens, turkeys and goats - it is a stunning contrast with our regular city life. However, most of the time there wasn’t any noises at night and we slept well. The only thing that bothered us - lots of flies during the midday (but that’s a natural thing at a farm).
Just keep in mind that it is not 5 star hotel, it is just the opposite - a chance to meet quite and calm local Greek life with a thousand stars above your head (especially when you’re lying on a sun-bed on the roof of the studio at night).
In conclusion, we are very happy that we visited George’s studio. It was extremely colorful and vivid experience for us! We gonna keep the warm memories about our holidays here for a long long time! Thanks million times for that!
If you want to find something different from boring stay at another hotel - come here with no hesitation!
