    It´s not so close to any shop or urban area, nor to trails. So, it´s better to rent a car for the stay, or go without expectations of moving during your stay (as I did). Anastasios was very kind and helped me to go buying my food !! :) Otherwise, the taxi is about 12-15 euros per ride. No public transportation available.

    Absolutely lovely and peaceful stay at this beautiful paradise. The beach is a few meters from there, so it´s just perfect to go for a swim right after waking up or by sunset. There is another beach reachable by feet (5 min walk) which is even more private and beautiful. The friendly staff and family environment makes this place stand for its uniqueness, which made me feel like at home since the beginning with the welcoming gift (local wine and fruits and vegetables from the garden)!! I had my kitchen to prepare my meals, and I enjoyed having my breakfast and dinner by the deck facing the ocean, which allowed full relaxation :)

    Problems with the phone connection and low Wifi power. But this is also part of the charm of this place.

    Unmissable location on the sea, immersed in an ocean of silence and beauty. Another way to experience your holiday, without stress, without haste, just rhythm, nature and relaxation... leave the Chaos to others. Everything that is missing elsewhere is present there. The sunsets from the common terrace, the starry skies finally in darkness! Their delicious figs and peaches picked from the trees in the garden as you return from the beach.... Kindness and helpfulness, without affectation. I feel happy. Thank you, Elina and Anastasis!

    The house with the garden and the view are absolutely amazing!! I could have sat on that terrace with a book and a glass of wine forever. The owners were incredibly nice, it's far from the tourist hotspots which I really loved, but there are two small paths down to small beaches, so it only takes you a minute to get to the sea. Very strongly recommended if you are looking for a bit of calm and relaxation!! Kitchen is equipped well enough to cook a simple meal and if you are looking for some company, the familys very friendly dog and cat are always happy to see you :)

    I don't think there are many places like that. The most important is the location - right on a quiet beach! We were there during the high season and it was so quiet and beautiful... There is a private beach there, where we have been almost all the time peacefully alone. The apartment was big and nice. There are two nice restaurants nearby (one right on the coast - Fisherman, and another one in the center of a town). There is a shop in the town but only open on specific days, so it's good to check it beforehand. At the arival, we recived an umberlla for the beach (we used it all the time) and a bottle of Samos Wine (we drunk it imediately ;) ). I highly recommend this place!

    I is a true retreat with fantastic views and a isolated small beaches in the vicinity. The interior of the rooms is a bit dated but clean and adequate. The location is remote, but to us it was a great asset. The host is very kind and helpful.

    The only problem, really, was that we booked for three days only and not longer. If you are lookingfor a quiet relaxed and friendly place to stay, this is it!

    Lovely View in an Old Building

    The accommodation needs improvements, notably the outdated beds and bathroom. While having a shower, the bathroom and room actually flood because there isn't a shower curtain or other barrier to keep the rest of the bathroom apart.

    The location is fantastic, as is the view. It's on the quiet side of the island, making it a nice alternative to avoid the throng and the noisy. The room comes equipped with the essentials for a kitchen, as well as a little mocha pot, which I thought was a nice touch.

    No breakfeat alternative. The Road of hotel is narrow and dirt. It was a little dangerous.

    Rooms were clean. Hotel is very silence and enviroment is green.

    Great location, terrible mattress
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Studio Apartment with Sea View
    • Stayed 3 nights

    - hard and very uncomfortable mattress, old and worn out (you could feel every single spring poking your back) - very basic kitchen, barely enough to cook your meals - no shower curtain, so a completely wet bathroom floor after showering

    Exceptionally quiet and spacious apartment, about hundred meters from the sea (you could see and hear the ocean from the balcony). It's an older building with somewhat dated furniture and appliances which could be a little bit cleaner (some cobweb, hairs from former guests in the bathroom). Fast and reliable Wifi. Free parking directly in front of the apartment. Very friendly owners. It's definitely location above comfort.
