This was a perfect place for us to stay and it suited our needs brilliantly. Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. There is a little supermarket a few metres away, cafes and restaurants offering very local and delicious food and the sea. Joy's mother lives downstairs and makes fantastic honeyed fruit syrups and jams and lemonade that we found in our fridge on arrival. Chora is a beautiful little sophisticated town with a small but perfectly formed modern art gallery and archeological museum as well as busy sociable squares and a vibrant creative life with film clubs, theatre and art exhibitions. We did a lot of walking into the hills and the villages on the slopes. We stayed in Joy's appartment for a week with no car or moped (though we might hire one next time) and would definitely go back.
