Staying at Ermioni's place in town was amazing. The space is lovely, well-appointed, and in an incredible location. We loved being right in town within stone's throw of everything in town. We loved the island, and Ermioni was very generous and helpful answering our questions about where to visit, what to do, and where to eat. Follow her advice!
We rented a car because we wanted to explore the rest of the island, and I think that was a good call (even though there is reportedly pretty good bus service). There is free parking in town about a 5 minutes' walk from the flat. We went to beaches all over the island and took the car on the ferry from Pounta to Antiparos.

We have stayed at a lot of AirBnBs over the years. We have never had the pleasure of such personal touches. Ermioni and her family greeted us with open arms and were genuinely happy to help us get oriented. Upon arriving, Ermioni presented us with not just maps and suggestions for finding key places but also provisions to welcome us: crustini, wine, olive oil - all homemade.
During the summery months, Ermioni works long hours in her menswear store immediately below the apartment so she's always close by. She was super communicative answering all of our questions almost immediately by text. And she was so warm, welcoming, and inviting in person that it felt like we had an immediate friend and local connection.
I can't recommend Ermioni's place highly enough!
