We stayed with a family of five (two teenagers, one small child) at Xenias house A for nine days in early October. During and before our stay, we had several questions regarding our trip and she was most helpful in answering each one of them in no time.
The appartment is rather spacious and does overlook the Mediterranean Sea. It only gets evening sun (plus early morning in the bedrooms) which is nice for the sunsets; however it is rather shady for staying inside during daytime.
The interior is all new and very clean. The essentials were provided in the kitchen as well as in the shower. After one week the appartment was cleaned and the linens were changed.
The house lies on a small peninsula adjacent to an ancient windmill. The mill is not active anymore but the wind certainly was at work during our stay! For that reason we could not really profit from the surroundings of the house. During the summer, the wind probably is nice and cooling but in early October it was rather nasty.
The small beach down at Stavros is quite wind-protected and only 2 minutes away. We could make out two more wind-protected beaches: Pachia Amos by Kionia (2 min. by car) and Santa Margarita on the east side of the island (20 min. by car).
The island is very diverse and all (!) the people very friendly. In fall, it feels very remote and is well worth an exploration.
