I speak Greek and English and enjoy folk dance and hiking.

I'm a Greek-Canadian owner of this private home. It is located in a hillside hamlet, slightly off the beaten track. This quiet mountain village has its own charm, away from all the noise & crowds. At 640m elevation it is 3 to 4 degrees cooler than other parts of the island, which makes for a comfortable sleeping temperature. 2,50 km to the village of Christos, 7 km to Armenistis & and the largest beaches in the island, and a few steps away from a network of walking and hiking trails.

The space

The home was custom built just a few years ago. There are 2 separate bedrooms offered on the top floor of the house. A bathroom on this top floor is for the sole use of the people staying in these bedrooms. Each room has one double bed, (no room for a second one) keyed door and is not entered without your permission.

Guest access

kitchen, patio, garden ( and fresh garden produce!) common areas

During your stay

Upon request, I am able to provide guided hiking tours & basic dance instruction, in preparation for the many festivals around the Island.

Other things to note

There are many music/dance festivals in this island throughout the summer months in villages that are located on higher elevations.
Be sure to check them out, or ask me for details around the time you plan to travel here. (Panigyria in Ikaria)
