Hlias' family and his lovely cottage made our stay on Leros a fantastic experience. His sister Daphne and his mother gave us the most fantastic welcome on Christmas Eve with homemade biscuits and Christmas liqueur which felt like a homecoming rather than an arrival. Throughout the whole stay they were always available with advice and help and delicious homemade cakes from her family and neighbours for New Year - we were also lucky enough to see some incredible live music on a spontaneous night out with Daphne and her friends. The cottage is cute and quiet with great views of the sea and decorated with Hlias' father's gorgeous paintings, and the small terrace outside the bedroom is a great place to sit in the sun and relax. We loved this house, the family, and Agia Marina so much we didn't want to leave and could have spent all winter here. We're already making plans to come back!
