    I appreciated being met at the port and shown to my room. The room was advertised as a sea view and it definitely met that expectation. The bed was comfy.

Mr Fanis - Mrs Anna - Christos & Nikos
Our rooms are of those who don’t have stars. Those who don’t have thousands of followers on facebook & Instagram, but they are full of love and care for greek hospitality. They are among those you call on the phone to make a reservation and the owner answers enjoying a couple of fruit from his garden, watering his numerous various flowers and plants, which in their turn give out pleasant scents in the whole neighborhood, gazing at the same time at the small boats anchoring in front of him. It is a place you reach after enjoying a walk on the beach, feeling the sea breeze and viewing the colors of sunset. There, you will meet Mr. Fanis, a polite gentleman with a broad smile on his face. As Kostis Palamas has written “The world shines like a star, mountains & valleys, trees & streams celebrate again welcoming the summer” Bliss!”. Besides, the best thoughts and views have were written on an island like this once upon a summer time, in the simplest double room with a view to the sea. Our rooms are like this and we are expecting you.
My name is Christos and usually I will be waiting for you at the port if Katapola.. :-) I love travelling and this is the reason that makes me get interested in tourism and accommodation, i love to have contact with so many different cultures, exploring new places and meeting new people. I believe the real value in life is found in relationships - even those that only lasted one conversation long. Most people describe me as “bubbly” and “pleasant” and having “a permanent smile”… and I also love putting smiles on people's faces too!!!! In summer, I am waiting for you in Amorgos so that we will all have the greatest holiday experience! My family and I will try to be the best hosts for you, providing everything you may need for a careless stay and all the insider's info for the island!
