So if you're looking for peaceful serenity then this isn't your place. If a unique experience is what you're looking for then this would fit that criteria. I'm glad that I stayed here but I wouldn't stay again. It is as pictured an old fishing boat shed in a really cute picturesque fishing village. They've done a recent renovation to the place but it seems like it was done in a great rush. When you wake up in the morning it's lovely to sit out the front with a coffee and watch over the water but from about 10am onwards it's a steady stream of tourists that come by to take their photos for instagram. It peaks just before sunset when you can't actually see the sunset through all the people. We would often find random people sitting in the table and chairs that are part of the house furniture who we would have to ask to move when we wanted to eat our dinner and people would try to come in to have a look inside the place thinking it was a shop or a display, making it difficult for us totally and completely enjoy the place. The hosts have provided a light curtain to draw over the doorway when the doors are opened and they are essential as every tourist going past wants to look inside as it's one of the first ones they pass. So it's not very private in the main room but there is a thick curtain for the bedroom so they can't see in there. Not totally terrible but not relaxing either.
At high tide the water comes inside the place so be careful not to leave anything just inside the door. It's also impossible not to get sand and salt all through the place but perfectly the hosts have a cleaner who comes every two days and so this wasn't a great problem for us.
If you want to swim it's a fantastic place as the water on the doorstep was great! We love it as the water was crystal clear and a great temperature to swim in. We swam there at least twice a day, I would just highly recommend reef or snorkelling shoes as the rocks are quite sharp and the way in and out of the water is both slippery and painful to bare feet. The ocean is loud at high tide or when the ferry's pass by which we enjoyed falling asleep to but if it's not your thing then you can't just close the doors for the quiet so be aware of that.
If you're a smoker then it's a great place but if you're not then it's not ideal. It seems a popular place to smoke out the front by other airbnb guests in the other boat sheds and then after sunset the store next door that sells trinkets to tourists seems to be a gathering place for locals to drink smoke and talk loudly. It wouldn't be a problem except that the windows of the shed are just fly screen netting so you can't keep the smoke or the noise out of the place.
The bed is quite hard but fine (queen not a king as advertised) the shower is great and gets really warm quickly. The internet is mostly reliable but dropped out a couple of times but not enough that is was an issue. The kitchen is really a kitchenette but it was pretty well equipped. The kettle wouldn't turn off when boiling so don't leave it unattended and the handle can get hot.
The hosts were responsive and provided extra towels when I requested them but the check in process was a bit boring with being told multiple different times and places to pick up keys from and then to be waiting in the village with all our luggage when the hosts were over an hour late to drop off the key wasn't an ideal start. They were nice guys when we met them but perhaps they're just over committed as they are a business with an office in Adamantas and look after multiple accomodations and when we went by the office there were lots of people complaining. So maybe they were just having a bad day?
I can't recommend having a hire car for this place enough. It's a LONG walk uphill to anywhere else and in the heat we saw many people struggling. The place comes with a parking spot in an area behind a boom gate close to the property which is invaluable!! The parking otherwise is a significant way up the hill. The first person I spoke to at the office told me that there was no parking and that's where we had to park up the hill but when I asked someone else then we were provided the remote for the parking spot, so if you book this place just make sure to ask again if they say there's no parking.
The restaurant that's in the village is nice to eat in and has a spectacular view for a sunset without instagrammers in the way but it's very very popular so either book the night before (for the waterfront tables) or get in early as there can be quite a list of people waiting by 9pm.
I'd also recommend the boat tour Oneiro that goes around the island as it's only a smaller group and the captain was very friendly and informative and took us to all the best swimming and snorkelling places.
As I said it's a unique experience that I'm glad we did once but it wasn't an overly comfortable space and the tourists made it difficult to just enjoy so I wouldn't do it again.
