One of the best experiences we ever had The house is situated in a very interesting region which offers a large variety of experiences: you have the great city of Athens nearby, the mysteries of Delfi or Elvesina and in the same time you are submerged by the serenity of the Greek province so nonchalant tin summer with all the wild and organised beaches, mountains and olive orchards. You can relax in the splendid infinity pool of the local resorts or spend a prefect evening in the small taverns. The island of Evia lays across the narrow bay offering the shopping fever of Chalcis, the romantic evenings on the streets of Eretria, the splendid sceneries of the 1730 m high peaks, the bucolic small villages and the best part – the secluded beach of Chiliadou where the mountains fall the Aegean Sea. So, there is plenty of places to visit and lot to experience our favourite being the small port of Agios Minas with its calm beach and nice small taverns, the mountains of Evia and the house of Maria and Yannis. The best part of our vacation was the surprise and the privilege to meet Maria, Yannis and Irene. They offered an unforgettable hospitality the one only reserved for beloved relatives. We felt at home and we felt blessed by their kindness and attention and we appreciated the long summer nights of talking at the big table charring the fgrech fish, souvlaki, pita, vegetables from the garden, some wine and beer. The house is spacious and very clean, all appliances being bright new. It has 2 rather big terraces prefect to take a coffee or a late snack and cocktail. The ceilings are high and beautiful leaving a lot of air and light. The house is surrounded by a lavish garden of exotic for the northerner’s eyes plants and palmtrees where you can find a fountain and a nicely arranged barbecue area. You have to keep at mind that the house is in a rural zone, so if you keep your doors/windows open you will hear the great assembly of birds and some local cocks celebrating the new day. And you will also need a transportation. It’s true that there is only 300 m to the nearest beach, but it will be a tiring walk in the summer sun. We were lucky to use Irene’s Jimny we rented for a more than decent price which allowed us to travel well and to discover a lot of the regions hidden gems. In brief it’s a marvelous place where live one of the nicest persons we ever met and we are looking forward to come back to the warm waters of the Evoikos kolpos and to the even warmer welcome of Yannis and Maria. Ja, ganz genau!
