Georgia’s place is everything you would need to enjoy Koufonissi. A very clean, comfortable place to sleep, shower, and recharge for the beach, boating, and small village experiences you are seeking. Georgia’s mother was there to greet us and provide access to the space which has a comfortable bed, a few different densities for pillows, a day-bed/couch, ample-sized refrigerator, and a tiny tv (but bring an hdmi cable and dongle if you want to watch anything). The kitchen had what we needed, small cooktop, sink, and some dish ware.
The bathroom is a decent size, but no shower curtain (which is common in many Greek homes), and likely because of this, no overhead shower head or wand holder. Be prepared to shower in a careful way. But there was a professional hair dryer, so that was a plus! They provided hair/body wash, but no conditioner or bar soap. If you require those, bring your own.
The location is right in the heart of the main strip, right above a popular souvlaki/gyro restaurant and jewelry shop. This didn’t affect our quality of sleep, as we go to bed after midnight, but if you want to do so earlier and need complete quiet, you may hear something. There was no lockbox, but the island felt very safe & our belongings were made secure during our stay.
The view from the balconies are great. One side is looking at the main strip and some restaurants, but too small for a table or chairs, but the other is very spacious and looks out to the sea and port, and is a great place to have morning coffee and tea.
Overall, considering the short notice and the unfamiliarity with Koufonissi, Georgia’s place far exceeded our needs and easily met our expectations for cleanliness, safety, and value. Would stay again for sure! Thanks!
