Vassilis and Ann were (are) the perfect hosts and incredibly helpful to us. The villa is as described and has everything one would want. We cooked several times there and it is a very well equipped kitchen (there is a good barbecue also). The views from the patio are fantastic.
A minute from the villa there is great swimming - off rocks, so those rubber beach shoes are useful. No one else ever used that path while we were there so it was like a private "beach".
There is a sand beach close by.
Syros is a beautiful island well worth visiting. Hiring a car is recommended (there is a hire car place just round the corner). There is also a good bus service.
We recommend this villa very highly.
Thank you Vassilis and Ann!!
