We ( 2 people ) loved our little cottage on the cliff of Mandrakia. Christina is a lovely and generous host. The cottage had everything we needed for our 6 night stay. We enjoyed being out of a town and up on the cliff- a few steps to one of the best restaurants on Milos, Medusa and 2 fabby beaches . Also a few minutes drive or a gorgeous little hike ( we took Christina’s recommendation and did it at sunrise ) to the famous Sarakiniko Beach/scape. We were a short drive or walk from the two little towns leading up to Plaka, which was my favourite of the towns. A car for this location, and Milos in general is a must.
The cottage was super clean and the amenities and linens were wonderful. The bed was very comfortable. There were lots of goodies to greet us- fresh melon, biscuits, bread, water, wine etc. which was very much appreciated after our trip in via ferry from Athens. The little kitchen was well appointed. The shower had good pressure and plenty of hot water.
The space is well ventilated and light filled. And also closes up well in the event that the North wind blows, which it did when we were there. There is another cottage right in front but there are views of the sea to the right and left of that cottage. The table at the rear of the house overlooking the sea was my favourite spot for breakfast and the little table at the front of the house was perfect for when the wind kicked up.
I would definitely recommend a stay at Christina’s place and hope to return again!
