“A very warm welcome including detailed explanations and recommendations on the island's highlights. Venezia is the good soul of the house, an extremely kind and helpful person who takes care of everything. Incredible! The rooms are located in an old house that has been renovated with great attention to detail. The rooms are simply furnished but extremely clean and comfortable, and are cleaned daily. The highlight was the large, comfortable terrace of our room, with a magnificent view over the entire bay of Katápola. Many taverns, cafes and bars are just a few steps away. The beautiful little Maltézi beach can be reached in a twenty-minute walk or by taxi boat. The entire island is still the Greece we knew and loved from the past.”
