Guest reviews
Exceptional
This place is a gem and I want to go back over and again
Liked: Location. Vibe. Ease.
Beautiful location with stunning views and a great choice of Tavernas within 20 mins walk
Liked: The property was in a perfect location next to the hotel that until recently was formerly the Four Seasons. The owner paid for 4 sunbeds for us for 3 days and paid for a welcome meal at the hotel's taverna which looked over the beach. The views from Erato over the sea were stunning. There was a regular ferry service running every half an hour to Hydra Port. The pick up was very close to Erato however we enjoyed walking into Hydra Port most days which took 45mins each way. A great way to get your daily steps in.
Disliked: The property could do with a frying pan.
Absolutely worth it! I would definitely stay here again
Liked: Manolis was incredibly kind. He picked us up from the harbor and showed us all the way to the apartment. He made sure we had everything we needed, including some food for breakfast, a nice bottle of wine in the fridge, and several additional amenities that were not included in the offer. I really appreciated his kindness and hospitality. He also checked on us regularly and was always there to help. Whenever something wasn’t working, such as the internet connection, he quickly found a solution. We truly enjoyed having him as our host. The area is beautiful, beach was great and having a beautiful hotel and tavern really close by was a great advantage. Also a walking distance to the harbor was a nice walk, especially at night. I generally liked better staying in this area of the island although I was initially sceptic about the location.
Disliked: I would have appreciated a few more towels (but also, I didn’t ask), and the water in the in-door shower was not always warm-most of the time, it was cold. But outdoor shower had plenty of warm water always so I couldn’t complain!
Perfect
Liked: Stunning location, only a short walk to a beautiful beach and two excellent restaurants, four if you’re prepared to walk a little further. Chora, the island’s breathtaking “capital” is a 3km walk away, or 10 minutes by sea taxi (€10 Euros for a return ticket).
Disliked: Nothing.
Pure peace
Liked: The garden was breathtaking - a perfect opportunity to relax in nature surrounded by plants, flowers and some beautiful tortoise friends. The mules ran past at sunset one night and it was truly like something out of a film. There is an outdoor shower which is a great experience to shower with a view and feel grounded in nature. Manolis was the perfect host, he left a welcome pack of many food items, wine and ouzo, gave us vouchers for the dinner and sunbeds which we were not expecting, and was generally just very open and friendly. Although the location is quite remote, we stayed for 8 nights and our favourite restaurant was genuinely the one a 3 minute walk away! And another one (Marinas) is only 10 minutes and was some of the friendliest service on the island - authentic food with unbeatable views. Thank you manolis, we loved meeting you and we are grateful to have had this experience in your home.
The house is charming and Manolis is a fabulous host
Liked: Fridge stocked with Breakfast treats, water and drinks! The views are amazing.
Disliked: The third room was windowless ( window into living room) unfortunately the AC and fan were being repaired. However the owner supplied a floor fan immediately.
