this is an exceptional place to stay with an exceptional host. Ioakeim and family made us feel very welcome and special, taking great care to settle us in, stock the fridge (bake a cake!) and Ioakeim sat down with a map explaining the island and detailing all his recommendations. So cool. The house is peaceful, was exceptionally clean, the grounds are a lovely place to relax, cook bbq, and eat on the outdoor tables. While we really enjoyed travelling all over the island, we loved to come back and just absorb the place and the sea just beyond the gates. While the beach is pebbly, when the sea was calm it was a great place to snorkel. nothing like a morning snorkel before breakfast. A trip to remember.
