- SUV is a must for the roads/paths to get to this beautiful collective of apartments/ villa. Pls rent the SUV in Rafina/ Athens, then come with it via ferry to Andros.
- Do not rely on island car rental shops. Cars not in good condition. Taxis charge high prices unless you work with Mike from Andros. He is an honest taxi driver speaking great English. His prices are fair for the island.
- Allegra hooked us up with great island tips. TY Allegra. Ask for the list of things to do.
- Melisse's do not provide any coffee/ tea / food/ snacks after the breakfast. (Breakfast is divine though.) If you would like to hang at the pool, you would need to buy your own supplies, food and beverages and prep them at the Annex provided to the guests.
- Lots of flies. No one's fault. You are in the middle of the beautiful nature. This is normal. Just bring a flyswatter (not the electric one, that's torture for the animals) or a small pot of living fresh basil. They will stay away.
Definitely worth to experience this special place!! TY Allegra and family for creating this beautiful experience while staying true to the integrity of the island & its culture.
Cheers.
