Menelia Cottage

The hosts are very hospitable and cheerful. In case of a problem that arose, they were there and immediately provided a solution. Also for welcome, there were various edible products, fruits and waters etc. There was everything a household needs

One major thing I didn't like was that there was no air conditioning, only ceiling fans, one of which was old and very noisy, which we couldn't sleep with. Also in the same room the metal bed made noise during private moments.On the last night, due to the heat wave, we couldn't sleep as one room had no windows at all.

All

that it had no air conditioning

The hosts were very kind, they tried to make us stay as beautiful as possible. We met with fruits, vegetables, wine and pie, for which we thank them. The house is beautiful and comfortable, but isolated, in a mountain village, so it is absolutely necessary to have a car. Also, you should keep in mind that the distances, although small, are much more difficult due to mountain roads, which are narrow and winding. For us it was an advantage, as we traveled with small children, and we were so deprived of the noise and agitation of the tourist resorts, and the mountain landscapes are truly fabulous. The beaches are superb, and the sea is incredibly beautiful. We fell in love with the Kathisma beaches (the less crowded area of ​​Cafe Restaurant) and Afteli (a very small, yet very cozy beach). Egremni (it can be reached only by water), Porto Katsiki or Milos are very beautiful, but very crowded and unfocused. The beaches of Vasiliki and Agios Ioannis are also beautiful. We chose to go in the second half of August, and the weather was gorgeous even though one day it was raining. We also went on a cruise that lasted about 8 hours. Even if it's a bit tedious, it's worth it, because the scenery is unforgettable.

Matrimonial beds would require repair Kitchen furniture should be better ventilated

Silence, very silence. The owners were very hospitable. They knew we are coming from far away and we are going to be tired, so they bought some fruits, vegetables, milk, bread, juice and some other food to have something to eat after we arrive, and they gave us some gifts at departure. The hot water broke in one day and they fixed it very quickly. Also they provided many informations about the island. Highly recommend.

The beds are a little bit creaky.
