Marios is an excellent host.
Extremely attentive and friendly a true example of Greek hospitality.
He went out of his way and helped with everything to make our stay comfortable including multiple references for successful car rental .
Immediate responses, great references for food, nightlife and overall local tips.
The house was beautiful, rustic and mostly roomy, comfortable beds,
situated high on a cliff, a prime stunning location overlooking all of Tinos and a few easy steps down to the cleanest bluest and most private beach.
Raw, serene beautiful unadulterated nature.
It is near gorgeous must see villages like Ysternia, Kardiani, Pyrgos and Volax.
Ideal for at least 4 people, or two couples and since the second room is like a guest house with a separate entry outside, there is a lot of privacy.
Extremely safe area but you need a car to get there, you basically drive up and down mountains and part of the road after the main highway (the final 5 minutes) is pretty steep, unlit and unpaved.
However, were fine without an SUV just a regular car (stick shift probably best).
It is approximately 25-30 minutes from the port city (Xora) so stock accordingly with food as there are zero markets around.
Closest tavern/restaurant is about a 10 minute drive, nothing in walking distance.
Amazing terrace overlooking the Aegean.
I would recommend this to anyone and I will be staying again there in the future.
Fully equipped kitchen, plus some complementary extras by Mario like filtered coffee eggs water and beers as well as a welcoming basket filled with fresh local Greek goodies.
A plus for cat lovers as there is a small cat shelter/sanctuary down a few steps as you go towards the beach. The cutest little felines were there to greet you.
Overall very clean , relaxing and a great get away; hardly any other houses around, zero noise, super safe.
The only thing I would recommend is adding full length mirrors, closet storage with hangers and maybe somehow adding larger sinks in bathrooms, they were tiny.
Other than that everything was amazing.
