Fantastic place and fantastic host. Super clean, very stylish, comfortable bed and couch, very nice view of sea from the expansive porch and yes, it is truly right above the beach, just two minute walk (down a little hill and across a small road that is not really used except by the few people living on it) to a calm swimming area. Plus it’s a short and easy walk to the town where there are lots of cafes and restaurants and a very well stocked grocery store. You could easily come with an older kid or two who would be able to entertain themselves on their own. Aliki is also a cheaper town than other places we noticed in terms of cafe prices. And there’s a bigger beach in walking distance, altho we rented a car for a few days and explored as there are many other beaches around. Highly recommend this place for people who want everything in walking distance and want a stylish place to stay. It is not a huge place but well laid out with everything you need and a very welcoming host.
