This was an unforgettable week in Andros, Greece. Our host Ekaterina helped a lot with our travel arrangements providing us with detailed information how to get from Athens airport to the port of Rafina and to the final destination by the ferryboat to Gavrio, port of Andros. She has also kindly connected us with reliable local car rental on Andros with a very fair price level. Our Fiat Panda was waiting for us literally by the exit from the ferryboat, car handover and paper work went smoothly.
The house is located up on the hill 3 km from the port, 5 to 7 minutes driving time on the asphalt road. Driving in Andros requires some driving skills due to the hilly landscape and combination of asphalt and tarmac roads, sometimes very narrow. One could adjust his or her driving style relatively quickly as there not that many cars on the roads.
The most precious memory of the house is fantastic panoramic view over the sea, port and mountains. Every room or window has dramatic view either on the picterious valley or seaside. The house itself is very spacious, comfortable and decorated with a great style. Kitchen provides all necessary equipment. The spring that is just 3 minutes walking from the house is a specialty, which I will always remember.
Out of the numerous beaches of Andros we liked Golden beach the most. Protected by the wind we were sunbathing and swimming in the end of October as if it was summer.
Ekaterina, thank you very much for the opportunity to stay at your wonderful house. We have shared our impressions with our friends who also would like to visit your house. Highly recommended!
