It was a real pleasure to stay at Maria and her family's house.
The location is simpley perfect in a small boutique village 7 min walk from Halki/Chalkio and 5 min walk from the supermarket so very convenient.
The house itself is quite spacious and well equiped and appointed.
The lovely little garden in front of the house is very enjoyable.
It was also great to be able to have our meals outside on the terrace.
But the most is the warm friendly welcome from the hosts. This is at least a 5 star service : we were offered bread, water, juice, a bottle of wine, watermelon and a large bowl of Greek salad at our arrival, then Maria and her family baked us cookies and cake, and made some delicious moussaka. We were also offered veggies from their garden.
Everything was so delicious.
We stayed for 5 nights and in the middle of our stay we were offered the option to change the towels and bed linen.
The island itself is really nice, family and countryside style with a contrast between the sea and the mountain. We enjoyed that natural and cultural environment where we had lovely walks (from stroll through the authentic village and geological sites to real hike to Zeus summit). As per our hosts advices we discovered the different aspects of the island and for the beaches we really appreciated Pyrgaki Beach which is a bit simple but secluded as away from the tourists.
A car rental is a must to visit the different places of the island.
Once again thank you so much to Maria and her family for the amazing sense of hospitality.
We highly recommend this lovely address.
