I spent a 5 nights at Soula's place and it was absolute heaven! The apartment is located on the edge of Batsi, just minutes walking distance from two beaches and plenty of restaurants. The apartment was spacious and clean and the views from the terrace into Batsi bay, just beautiful. Soula was very warm and welcoming, she kindly helped me out with a few requests and checked in a few times to ensure I was happy. My visit was late October so Batsi
and the island as a whole, were very quiet, but still some restaurants and shops were open. The food and service at Cavo D'oro (less than 5 mins walk) were great and very good value. The walking on the island is incredible, with a real mix of breathtaking scenery. If you are planning to walk the maps and book by androsroutes.gr are really helpful and sold in shops throughout the island. Andros also has some beautiful beaches, most of which were empty or had one or two people at this time of year. Colona beach, 5 mins walk from the apartment is really picturesque and where I enjoyed pre-breakfast swims. Other small and lovely beaches I visited included, Agia Marina (15min drive south), Fellos (25min drive north) and Sineti on the East, near Chora. It really helps to have a car to be able to make the most of all that Andros has to offer. I could have happily stayed for another week and really hope to return again, so much more to see!
