Christina is one of those amazing hosts you sometimes hear about but never encounter. 😂 the apartment was really nice, the location is incredible, it felt really private and cozy. A short walk to the beach, easy to get to the village for groceries and whatever; convenient to drive anywhere in the island.
We went in winter and she made it really cozy with a heater and heaters on the bed. We cooked inside as we stayed right when Greece started closing things down because of covid 19. As this unfolded, we had great talks (at a safe distance) and shared stories. When we didn’t know what to do with our plans, she was perfectly fine with us extending our stay and helped us feel at home and safe. When we had to leave and change plans once again (to try and get a flight home) she was happy to indulge us and always interested in our well being.
We only wish we could have exchanged a handshake and a hug. But we will be back. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in the island. The place is spacious and better than the photos. We briefly contemplated staying longer to see the quarantine through and it felt like the perfect home. That’s how much this place is special. We stayed for 5 nights but would gladly stay there much longer to explore the island and closer islands.
Loved it! 6 stars. The Greeks are wonderful people and Christina is a fine example of it.
