If you are looking for a truly exceptional and special holiday experience, off of the beaten path and full of local charm, this is the place you should stay! The cottage is beautiful, old and full of charm, and filled with beautiful personal touches of your hosts. As with any older property, it has a few quirks, but these only add to its charm. Our hosts greeted us in person, even though we arrived late in the evening, with great hospitality and a beautiful basket full of homemade delicacies, like olive oil, wine, limoncello, cookies, and jams. We felt like friends of their family, welcomed to their home. They had been completely helpful and responsive leading up to the visit, and continued to be available to us on a moments notice, with local advice and restaurant tips.
As our hosts told us as soon as we booked the cottage, the location is about half an hour from the main port, and down a 2.5 km dirt road, that you will be much more comfortable and safe on if you rent a 4 wheel drive vehicle. While this made the coming and going from the cottage a bit more of a chore than if we had stayed in town, it was well worth it to wake up every morning in the quiet of this little local hamlet, listening to the sounds of the local farm, and smelling the beautiful fresh aromas of the Greek countryside. This was a truly exceptional stay and we will never forget it!
