My partner and I chose Nikos place for our late summer holidays in Serifos. We travel to Greece every year and choose a different, quiet island to stay at. We opted for Airbnb this year instead of hotel for a more authentic experience. We were not disappointed. Niko’s house is situated in a lovely old village of Chora on top of a mountain with most spectacular views. It is a traditional Cycladic house built by his parents forty years ago. There are two studios at the bottom of the house. We stayed in the larger studio view a beautiful terrace overlooking the landscape and the sea. Make sure you watch the sunset and the sunrise from here! Truly beautiful!
The house is very well equipped with cooking facilities, internet, gorgeous hot shower and air con if you need it (we don’t). It’s located on a quiet street but only few minutes walk from local traditional bakery, shops, chora square with cafes and restaurants and a bus stop. The bus takes 10min to go to Livadi port or you can take a walk down the steps which take about half our down and 45 min up. Great exercise and beautiful views!
The communication with Nikos was fantastic from the start!
His mum Vasso came to pick us up from the port when we arrived. Even though we arrived one day later than expected due to boat cancellation it was not a problem for her :-) Super kind human who showed us around the house and gifted us with her home made wine. On our departure Nikos father George came all the way from Athens to make sure we were ok.
The island of Serifos is perfect for travellers like us who seek peace, quiet, love walking and exploring.
The people are so kind, the food delicious (we are both vegan) the beaches outstanding! ( we visited 11 beaches on foot and by car).
Highly recommended!
Thank you Nikos and thank you to your lovely parents for making our stay so special!
