I came back for a second stay a week later and was just as impressed as the first trip.
Forgot to mention wifi in my first post. The wifi does quite well, around 30Mbps with low latency, and you get 5G cell service if that doesn’t suffice and you need to hotspot.
Getting a taxi in Syros can be quite difficult. The host worked to organize me one from the port, and when that failed, had a coworker pick me up in her personal vehicle. We agreed that I would pay her a small fee, but as much as I insisted, she refused to accept payment for the ride.
Everyone I encountered had great hospitality and I would absolutely stay here again.
Syros is very hilly, so you will walk a lot of steps and inclines. It may not be ideal for the elderly or persons with physical disabilities.
Otherwise, this is an incredible island and has to be one of the best short term homes you will find.
