Our hosts, Andrea and her family, were most gracious, friendly and helpful. Greek hospitality as I have encountered many times over the past few decades, and each time a wonderful experience reminding me how hospitality always was in Europe, and should be. Many thanks!

The house is indeed a traditional house. It is very special, and the location is unique. If you look for spacious rooms and a/c seek elsewhere. If you look for authenticity and a special experience - go for it. If you love to swim - descend to one of the many great beaches on foot and enjoy.

Folegandros is a great island for hikers. Many paths are well maintained and even marked - which is quite rare in Greece.

Folegandros is also still not as crazy as Mikonos or Santorini. Chora, the capital town (250 inhabitants), is no less than e.g. Parikia however.
