The house is located in a very friendly village in a walk distance from Apolonia. The hostess is the best we can have. Christina is a fascinating greek women who speaks English and French fluently. The house, a large house builted a hundred years ago with high ceiling was renovated with great taste and care being replaced from more modern items however, always respecting the original design i.e. the new ceramic floors replica of the original one. Great courtyard with shadows for having our breakfast in the morning or dinning facing an expanded view that was very exploited by us the adults as for my teenager son and my Labrador dog. The kitchen is well equipped having a lovely ceramic set of plates and the options for cooking with gas or electrical energy. Sifnos is a wonderful island with friendly residents and beautiful beaches which you will need a 4x4 car to reached some of them. The food is fantastic. Most of all, Christina as a hostess was great. Always smiling and prompt to help me in where to go and eat. Christina made all feel home.
Exambella is a quiet village with magnificient view to the village of Kastro and the sea, beautiful houses and old churches.
Useful information: The port (Kamares) is at 6 klm distance and most of the island’s beaches (Platis Gialos, Faros, Chrisopigi,) are 10-15 mins. drive. So basically the house is in the center of the island. You can rent a car or motorbike to go around or take the bus from the main road 50m from the house to all destinations! For the fans of hiking, Sifnos offers a unique set of trails that range from kids-friendly to advanced hikers. All trails have been waymarked by the local community. You can even explore the island on horseback, or rent a boat to nearby islands and shores!.
