George, Petros’ father, is super hospitable. Catch him at reception if you can and get the best tips in town (restaurants, boat tours, attractions etc). He let my partner and I use his landline to make calls before we got our own SIM to car rental places which we appreciated. George really wants you to live your best life while on this beautiful island.
Petros helped arrange a transfer (23€) to pick us up from the airport.
Guest house is near to a bus terminal (<10 min walk), easy drive as well with parking if you get a car.
Safe neighbourhood. Beautiful walks to Plaka, Tripiti and Klima which you can do on different days.
It was our first island and first stay of our trip and George set a high bar for the rest of our trip!
Our favourite spots if you choose George’s place for your stay! Which you should :)
Phatses - order the big Greek salad and a sausage dish with honey and balsamic vinegar.
Palaios - beautiful bakery, highly recommend their watermelon pie (a pastry you can’t get on all islands!) before you go up the kastro
Ergina - restaurant with a beautiful view, try their fried cheese (sweet, savoury and herbacious) and heartwarming chickpea dish
Thank you George for your zen-like presence and fun chats that we looked forward to before venturing out each morning!
