My husband and I stayed at Frini's for five nights with his parents. Frini was away but we were received warmly by her mother Andriana and cousin Vassili (sp?). They made us feel instantly welcome and part of the family. Every day during our stay Andriana brought us a treat from the kitchen. Despite her absence, it was easy to communicate with Frini before and during our stay to make sure we had all the details for our trip. This wonderful family was definitely a highlight to our stay.

The apartment is big and beautiful - just like in pictures but better in real life. We thoroughly enjoyed the views from the lounge area and garden. This is definitely one of those places that you wish you didn't have to leave.

The only set back was that we had initially planned to go to Delos/ Mykonos as a day trip. This was impossible due to the ferry schedule. If a visit to one of the other islands is critical to your trip, you might want to consider booking it before or after your stay on Syros.

For us, we just had more time to explore the lovely island of Syros.
