Andros Cyclades, private tennis & basketball courts,horses for riding

The property is amazing with stunning views. The villa is large, spacious with plenty of amenities and seating. We all had a fabulous holiday here. The children loved the pool and the tennis and basketball courts. Stavros was a great host, he really helped us get organised and it was lovely to meet him! The walk down to the town needs thick soled shoes so you dont feel the cobbles too much. The walk back is steep but doable or we just got taxis back up from the taxi rank in the town, especially when it was dark with the children. We were 3 families who are all friends- 6 adults and 5 children and all thought the pictures do not show just how really lovely this villa is. Andros is a great island to visit!

We booked the house for a two week family vacation (aged between 7 and 80). Andros is a beautiful island, and we loved the small town with the central promenade. We appreciated that there were not many tourists. During our stay, we went on a boat trip to visit more inaccessible beaches, which can be recommended. It was quite windy on the island but overall a positive feature in the heat. The house’s location was fantastic. It was a bit away from Andros town, not too far but enough to offer a fantastic view of the sea and town. Many in our group walked to and from town daily. The terrain and incline made it difficult for the elderly. The pool was large and had a good depth for diving. The outdoor area was overall fantastic. The house was nice and clean and the house was cleaned every other day during our stay. The beds were a bit hard. The soccer field and basketball court were good but somewhat worn, and there were leaves and branches in the corners. When we arrived at the house, we discovered tiny ants on the floor and in the beds, and we contacted and showed this to the host. The host couldn’t address the problem immediately due to the time of day and came and sprayed twice the next day. However, the host pointed out to us that we were complaining because of a few ants. During our stay in the house, we had problems with the refrigerator and the owner had to come and defrost it. The washing machine did not work for the last few days.

We stayed at the Villa for a family holiday with children, teens and grandparents. The pool and the outside area is perfect for a big group where people may want to find their own spaces to relax in the sun. All of the bedrooms are lovely with clean white bedding and comfortable mattresses. We didn’t hire a car but enjoyed the walk into town each day and taxis are easily available for coming back with shopping. There are some lovely places to eat and drink in Chora. It’s a pretty town and if you want to explore the island, the bus from the station in town was a cheap option. Stavros was kind enough to arrange a taxi for us when we first arrived at Gavrio. It’s a quiet and beautiful place. Definitely worth the extra effort to travel to Andros rather than the busier islands.

Ants everywhere even in the bed, closet, kitchen, the last night we killed a cockroach. View was fab, otherwise very basic, wouldn’t stay again. Very disappointed
