I did a bit of research and picked Tholaria for accommodation as this would suit us better. There are only a handful of tavernas (all close to each other), with an absolutely wonderful atmosphere at night. The one taverna has live music most nights which adds to the ambiance. There is one shop with the basics (really great bread) and one little jewellery shop - very nice. Evagelia's apartment is at the top of this little village and has a view over the valley and the ocean. I got up early most mornings and I hope that I will never forget as long as I live, the wonderful peacefulness sitting on the balcony, looking out over the quiet valley, hearing only the roosters and a donkey far off.
We only made breakfast in the apartment and the facilities were more than adequate. Very generous living area and great bathroom, all very nicely decorated.
Eva was a wonderful host - nothing was too much trouble. She helped us with transport, luggage, etc. Always very friendly and responding very quickly.
Thank you Eva it was great and I hope we can come back one day.
