This is the perfect place to stay if, like us, you like to get away from busy places, find peace and quiet but in a place that is stunning in terms of nature, experiences and things to see and do.
We hired a car to get there from the airport
The house has everything you could need, and more. So many little touches that are inspired. From a sandwhich toastie maker, to water,eggs, home made jam and bread ready and waiting for us to use until we got established.
Wifi is excellent.
Eleni, her Mother and her Father make your stay very warm, welcoming and hospitable. Her mother and father drove over an hour to meet us after midnight, with our flight arriving late, and they made us feel instantly at ease and welcome.
We had the great fortune to be there the weekend of the annual Monolithos village festival. A great experience!
The place itself is lovely. We encourage you to go to Fourni Beach. We had a lot of fun swimming, eating in the beach taverna and even a spot of cliff jumping. A holiday highlight.
The west coast can be quite windy, but that is lovely in the heat. This does make the beaches wavy, not flat sea. But Gennadi beach on the east coast is only 30 minutes by car with an easy drive. Great beach with taverna.
We would also recommend going a bit further up the east coast from Gennadi and trying Glystra Beach. Amazing snorkelling, water sports and crystal clear water.
I REALLY reccomend this house for a lovely Greek holiday.
