The family that runs Agia Anna Studios are the epitome of Greek hospitality and kindness. My children and I were met at the port and received the star treatment all the way to the property. The studios are large, well planned, spotless, and above all else the perfection I was looking for to end our holiday. This was our last stop on a five-week Cyclades island hopping experience, and I had very high expectations to begin with.

There are fourteen or studios in the attractive complex, about seven on each side of the path that runs down the middle. Our studio was the furthest from the quiet gravel beach. It wasn't the one shown in the main photo, but at 30 paces to the beach there was certainly nothing to quibble about, and perhaps that was an advantage because I imagine the thoroughfare between the beach and studios can be a bit busy with people walking by at high season (we were there on the cusp of August/September).

I only have positive and lasting memories of this accommodation and the surrounding area, which is exactly how I had hoped to spend my last days in Greece.
