The house is located right by the old main road that you cross to get to the beach. The beach is small and secluded, we were alone several times - amazing! Remember to bring your own umbrella for shade as is there are no sun beds etc there. We loved to be able to go for a run and then jump in the ocean before a shower!
The house is made for a couple and tops 2 kids as the second bedroom has a bunk bed. Big plus that you’re able to black out the bedrooms and get proper sleep.
We didn’t use the top terrace as it wasn’t really furnished and you have to go through the bedroom to get there. Downstairs patio is nice, we spent hours playing cards and eating there. There is some loud traffic when someone drives by but it didn’t bother us too much.
The kitchen is very limited as there are two heaters on the stove and you can only fit one pan at a time. The pan was terrible - someone had heated it too much so everything got stuck. We wrote a message and a new pan arrived in an hour! Big plus! Guests before us didn’t keep the kitchen stuff clean so we had to clean everything before use.
We loved being close to a little bird couple just outside the house watching them take care of their babies in the nest as well as having some kittens show up at night saying hello and asking for a little water and maybe something to eat. We felt close to nature and could really relax.
The closest supermarket is apx 20 mins away by foot. We didn’t have a car so we went shopping everyday. If you have a car, this will be much easier for you. The restaurants close by aren’t great, but if you walk 1 km you will reach a new place called Vayia, great owners and food! Worth the extra walk.
This is a great place when you want a quiet stay, cook your own food (and have patience that it takes extra time) or walk to a limited amount of restaurants, go for runs and then jump in the ocean but not lay out there all day as there is no shade.
I definitely recommend this place!
