This is the perfect little place to use a base for exploring the island . It is away from the craze of the crowds , walking ( if you like walking up and down hill ) or just couple of minutes of drive from mini markets and great local restaurants ( I can highly recommend a restaurant called ANOTI near by ). The host was great with communication prior to the trip and throughout . There was plenty of towels , toiletries and some basics like tea , coffee , water , jam , crackers available . The terrace is very spacious and makes a great place for a relaxing morning coffee in the sun ( the terrace has the morning sun ). My highlight were our local neighbours who kindly shared local coffee and home made cake .
