Throughout our stay in Karpathos, Stavros and his wife Olga were the perfect hosts! On arriving at 12:45am he picked us up from the ferry port in his car, which was very kind. He knows the island (and everybody on it, it seems!) very well, and was therefore able to offer a huge amount of advice and interesting information on where to go and what to do. He was happy to help us with car hire and restaurant suggestions which turned out to be the best of our whole stay. Olga also cooked us the most delicious meal on our last night and we had some great chats with them both during our stay.

The room itself was great, with it's own entrance onto their patio which has a lovely view over the bay. It is only a 5-minute walk into the centre of town, and everything was provided that we could have needed including a fridge, air-conditioning, and new towels every few days.

All in all, we would highly recommend staying with Stavros and Olga, and would love to go back!
