We are a family of six. Thanks to Sophia and her family we had the most wonderful time in Greece, they could have not been more helpful and their house is amazing! Firstly, before booking Sophia responded to all our questions quickly, honestly and helpfully.
Next, once we had booked, Sophia was amazing at giving us loads of extra help to arrange our travel in Greece and to Tinos.
Then, when we arrived in Tinos, Sophia’s parents helped us get from the port to the house, took us food shopping, arranged a bicycle for us to use and welcomed us at the house with fresh fruit. Wow!
Not to mention that the house is in stunning condition and in a wonderful location just thirty seconds walk from an amazing beach (where the children swam safely everyday). Plus, between the house and the beach is a bus stop with an hourly service to the main town (Chora) that takes 20 minutes and costs less than two Euros.
This really is a magical place to stay. You can stay near the house and relax on the beach or on the balcony (enjoying the incredible views) or walk in the hills, or you can use it to easily access longer trips to explore the incredible scenery of Tinos. We did not rent a car, we used the hourly bus to get to Chora and one day we an excellent day bus trip up to the villages in the hills (there is information about this at the house - Sophia provides lots of useful information about the island, so no need for much research before you arrive).
Sophia and her family were simply the best hosts we could have ever imagined. It was an absolute pleasure to enjoy their home and their island, both of which we now love as much as they do!
