where to begin? staying at margaret + sinead’s property in ios was an absolute dream. the property itself lived up to everything promised: great location with a 10 minute walk to the beach and short stroll into town, stunning views (truly breathtaking for sunrise/sunset), and great accommodations (there is a washer in-unit for those on extended travel which was great for cleaning our masks). what really made the experience top notch, however, was the incredible level of hospitality we received from sinead and yani before, during, and after our stay. leading up to our arrival, sinead was very on top of communicating any/all need-to-know information and was incredibly quick to respond via whatsapp. we were so thrilled that they were kind enough to pick us up from the ferry port upon arrival and yani gave us an excellent rundown during the drive of how to get to town/markets, the beach, and provided some recommendations as well. we arrived quite a bit earlier than standard check-in time and they were so kind to let us check in early, as the unit happened to be ready. this allowed us to maximize all of our time in ios, which we’re so grateful for. as first time travelers to greece, we were instantly charmed by ios and sinead was open to allowing us to extend our stay if schedules permitted on both ends. this level of hospitality really set the tone for what continued to impress us throughout our stay. sinead was so, so sweet and it really created such a positive experience that we hope to return to ios and would rather stay at their property than anywhere else. thank you all so much, it was a best-in-class stay from start to finish in every regard.
