We had a great experience staying here. The house is lovely, and the hosts have provided all the essentials for a comfortable stay. Beds were comfy, plenty of linens, good kitchen with everything you need to cook meals and the washer was welcome as we'd been traveling for weeks when we arrived. Quiet neighborhood that felt completely safe for two women. Great location in general for seeing the island, we had a car but could have walked to the next village and one beach if we had not. Helen and Ioannis shared lots of info with us before we arrived and Helen met us at the house and showed us around. In addition to her warm welcome there were fresh flowers and fruit, ouzo and some basic breakfast foods waiting for us when we arrived. The view is really mesmerizing and we had trouble leaving the front terrace to go explore the island! The hosts had also provided maps and brochures about things to see on the island. I would stay here again if I returned to Kea. The only thing I would add to the house description is the fact that you must climb 30 (we counted 'em) cement steps to get to the house. Ordinarily this would have been a mild inconvenience for lugging suitcases, but I was recovering from a knee injury and so the steps were a problem for me that I wish I had known about before arriving. Highly recommended! Thanks again to our hosts!
