A peaceful beautiful setting
The house is located in the favourable north of the island short drives (10-15 mins) from beautiful Assos, Fiskardo & several great beaches, within a tranquil small hamlet of just a few private houses, most of which seemed unoccupied. All one can hear from the house are the soft sounds of nature. A true getaway.
Anna is a warm and generous host, and opens her quintessential greek home to guests as though they were friends. Clear instructions for reaching the home, straightforward self access, a full meal presented on the table on arrival, just what we needed after a long day of travel and rumbling tummies.
While the interior decor is not cutting edge terence conran design, it is a very clean comfortable well maintained & functional home, with all the privacy you could ask for.
But the real jewel is revealed on stepping outside to the pool area with its breathtaking view over the sea and limestone cliffs beyond, as well as eating breakfast on the front terrace with further incredible views, shaded from the morning sun.
A few points to note: There's a good wifi connection, but unfortunately the signal doesn't reach the pool area. It does however service the terrace & the house from within.
Secondly, there is an aircon unit in the master bedroom, but not elsewhere in the house. That said, there were a couple of portable fans, which were effective & we put them in the 2nd bedroom. Whilst the lack if aircon throughout might bother some, the reality is, between time on the terrace, down at the beach, around the pool & meals out & about, we were hardly inside to really notice.
Finally, car hire is essential. If you're not wanting to hire a car, I'd suggest staying in Fiskardo.
