The experience was fantastic. The hosts were very warm, welcoming and helpful even though we did not personally meet them. We LOVED our house, it was hard to leave each day to explore the other villages and beaches as it was so relaxing. Would highly recommend this place if you like to experience the traditional lifestyle. Also recommend having a car as bus service is scarce for this little village. But all of the sights and beaches are a short scenic drive away. Tinos is a lovely island.
