This June we stayed for one week in the house of Guia in Lamyra. This is a really peaceful place for relaxing but also very close to Chora, the major town on Andros, with its great architecture and atmosphere! Compared to the other site of the island, Lamyra is very green and water sources rise everywere. The garden provides orange and lemon trees. Walking the stairs can be exhausting on very hot days, but for us even with little children of 3.5 years this was not a problem. Quite in contrary, you have to enjoy the way along all the beautiful and old houses as it is an experience itself.
Some words about Andros. Compared to other greek islands you miss extensive tourism here, especially in June. We loved it to spent time in such a beautiful place and also to see that tourists are still a small minority. Additionally, Andros offers so different possibility (beaches, hiking, architecture in Chora, water springs, plenty of monasteries) which differ from the other cyclade islands and have to be seen!
We will never forget our holiday in Guias house and hope to come back once! We can only recommend to come here!
