We must first say that it will be very hard to describe in words all the impressions we carry from our stay at Ruby's house.
During the years of our summer vacations we visited dozen Greek islands and stayed in many different places, but never, not even close, we felt so welcomed and showered with attention as at Ruby's.
From day one when she greeted us with smile and gave as the tour of the beautiful house and surrounding gardens we felt not as "just guests", but as dear friends coming for a visit. Fridge was full with drinks and local food, there were different teas, coffees, wines, brandies waited us and kids received many, many beach toys and other stuff to play with...
Not to mention cooking supplies, bathroom stuff, literally everything that we could possibly need was already taken care of by Ruby.
House is completely newly renovated, perfectly clean and equipped with practically everything you could think of that you will need on your vacation and more. This includes among other - high speed WiFi, TV, large fridge with freezer part, regular and microwave ovens, Nespresso, dishwasher machine, washing machine for laundry and of course all the kitchen and bathroom appliances we could think of.
Two bedrooms are large, cozy with lots of closet space and can comfortably accommodate 2 adults each plus small children in cribs that Ruby also provided.
Gardens around the house are large and beautiful, providing space for relaxation (including hammock and large table with chairs) and for kids to play between many figs, olives and almond trees. There is also a spacious driveway where you can park your car if needed.
Ruby gave us many advices about what to visit on this great island and what are the best beaches and all our questions were replied very quickly.
Although the place is very quiet and relaxing and you feel positively isolated in your own space it still takes only 5 minutes walk from the house to Gavrio main stroll area with all the tavernas, pastry shops, and general stores (only take note that the first 30-40 meters from the house are pretty steep, but nothing extreme).
As said before it is difficult to write how welcome we felt during our whole stay, literally treated like royals!
It was amazing vacation thanks to Ruby and we are looking forward to return in years to come as saying "feel like at home" at Ruby's house takes its true meaning.
