This is a truly unique and special place and easily one of the best highlights of my entire time in Greece! Sandy’s place is a former wine making and storage building that is hundreds of years old. She has carefully restored it into a beautiful and comfortable place to stay. I stayed in the middle of winter but a fire kept the place warm and cozy! The view cannot be beat, whether it is admiring the surrounding mountains in the daylight or gazing at the stars on a clear night, remembering that this is what a sky SHOULD look like! The walking paths crisscrossing the island are award-winning and deserve a much longer stay. I hope to return!! Best of all though is Alexandra herself- I don’t think I’ve ever had a host that was quite so hospitable or knowledgeable about this home she obviously loves. She also runs an animal sanctuary, so the many, many furry lovelies with tails wagging, meowing, or braying truly adds to the experience, as well as allows you to be witness to a special woman doing a pretty incredible thing for the animals on her island. Consider volunteering with her as well! I can’t recommend this place enough.
