If you want to be in a gorgeous well appointed home away from home, then Romantic House Ios is for you. The view is spectacular. You can watch the boats come in an out and in the evening you can have an aperitif on the front balcony and watch the sunset. We stayed in the 2 bedroom home (these hosts also have 2 other loft style studios) The place is secluded but still only a 5 minute ride in to the main village of Chora with all the shops and hustle and bustle, you can walk it if you want, but we hired a scooter to get around, with the help of our fantastic host Linda (she is Irish, so naturally speaks English) . There is a great kitchen (with the added bonus of a washing machine) so my husband who fancies himself a master chef cooked the best stuffed eggplants. Linda and her husband Antonis were so helpful and friendly. They picked us (and our ridiculous amount of luggage) from the port, drove us to get the scooters then dropped us back to the port at the end of our stay. Linda was so helpful with information on things to do and her recommendations were spot on. Linda had also thoughtfully put some breakfast provisions in the fridge for us as we arrived very late in the evening. They and there home are amazing. Highly recommend this home and Ios! Loved our five nights here.
