Nikos' place turned out to be much better than I expected from the photographs. It was spacious and had all the amenities we needed. More importantly, the location of the accommodation is amazing being in the old part of town, just by the castle, with lots of very pretty alleyways full of shops and restaurants but not overly touristy . Having been to other parts of the island, I felt really lucky that we had hit on such a special location.
We had beautiful views of the harbour from the terrace and balcony. Although it was windy for the first few days, the balcony was sheltered enough to sit out on and watch the world go by. I watched lots of people go to the temple of Apollo every day to watch the sunset and felt very smug to be sitting on the balcony/terrace with a glass of wine in hand having our own personal stunning views of the sunset.
It is undoubtedly a place that will stay in my heart and I hope to return!
Communication with Nikos was easy and he was very helpful. Thanks very much Nikos.
