Five stars aren’t enough. Our stay in Emborios was pretty much perfect. The village is stunning and fascinating, with amazing views across the caldera. And the house is beautifully decorated, well equipped and lots of thoughtful details provided for. It’s at one end of the village, so all you can hear from the glorious terrace is birdsong, church bells and the donkey occasionally braying. Heaven. I could have spent the whole time just there except that there is so much to see in Nisyros. But by far the best thing about the place is Triantafyllos himself. He is such a kind, open hearted person who went out of his way to explain island life and to ensure we had a good time, including giving us privileged prime seats to hear his friends play rembetika at the taverna on our last night - a fabulous experience. Meeting him was really like making a friend and it hugely enriched our stay. Don’t hesitate to go there - you won’t regret it!
