Tranquil retreat
The property is ideally located and very well equipped. The beach is a steep walk but worth the effort. The location is very secluded and there are many aspects to the grounds where one can enjoy the views. A complete rest away from it all as such we didn't feel the need to explore further beyond the property during our stay. Myrto was was very helpful and on hand when we needed to contact her which was especially important when we locked ourselves out.

Just what we wanted.
Lovely cottage if you like quiet with lovely views - in this case of Mt Athos and water and beautiful sunsets. A vigorous walk brings you to a small almost private beach which is delightful to swim off of. The cottage is comfortable & the owner available and very helpful to you. Highly recommend.

The house is in a beautiful, tranquil location and was ideal as a calm retreat from the chaos of everyday life. Myrto and her husband were welcoming and very helpful hosts. The beach was empty and the surrounding fields full of wild flowers (in May).

Tolle Unterkunft inmitten der einzigartigen Natur
Unser Aufenthalt war wunderschön. Das Haus sauber und gepflegt. Alles was benötigt wurde war vorhanden. Handtücher, Strandsachen, Waschmaschine, Kaffeemaschine, Grill, etc. Ein großes Lob an die Gastgeberin. Die Lage war sehr ruhig inmitten von Kiefern und Olivenbäumen, nicht weit vom einsamen Strand. Ein perfekter Ort um sich zu erholen.

The perfect hideaway
Myrto and her husband are very friendly and responsive hosts! The house is easy to find with their description, totaly for itself with a nice view over the sea. The wonderful beach is approx. 10min walk away, fairly steep... The house is very nicely furnished, the kitchen has every thing you need. Although for 5 people, it is pretty small. Very nice and large garden with lots of olive trees and shade. Restaurants/shops can be found in about 10min by car, for example in Ormos Panagias. We enjoyed it very much and likely come back!

Perfect holiday home
In the other ratings everything is already described. We can only confirm this: We were greeted very friendly, everything was perfectly prepared for our stay. From a filled fridge to homemade olive oil to the necessary utensils, which you usually have to buy on the spot. And the house and the surroundings are a dream. Only the access road is a bit adventurous at the beginning - but no problem after the second drive. All in all a very special and unique experience to spend our holidays in this great house. Many thanks to Myrto and her husband!

Un endroit magnifique dans une nature préservée
Tout d’abord la propriétaire Myrto est adorable: elle est toujours disponible, règle les problèmes très rapidement, prête à ajouter tout équipement nécessaire et a eu une attention particulière pour les enfants. C’est un plaisir d’avoir de tels loueurs ! Ensuite la maison est magnifiquement située en pleine nature au milieu des oliviers et des pins avec une superbe vue sur la baie et le Mont Athos. La maison est petite, très propre, bien équipée (y compris ventilateurs et air conditionné qui permettent de mieux dormir en plein été) et on passe le plus clair du temps dehors sur la belle terrasse et dans le grand jardin à l’ombre des oliviers et des pins. La plage est très proche, peu fréquentée (quelques tentes et quelques baigneurs de passage) et les eaux sont très belles. On peut marcher parmi les magnifiques pins méditerranéens dans les environs de la maison et profiter des belles vues sur les environs. Petits points à savoir (qui ne nous ont pas gênés nous): c’est la pleine nature donc il y avait pas mal de guêpes en plein été et le piège à guêpes ne peut pas toutes les capturer. La descente vers la plage est assez raide et la remontée encore plus 😉. C’est la garantie d’avoir peu de visiteurs...

Ein absolut idyllisches Hideaway!
Wir (2 Erwachsene, 3 Kinder) haben eine Woche im Mai 2019 in Myrto‘s wunderbarem Haus verbracht. Die absolute Alleinlage mit direktem Blick auf das Meer nach Osten und nach Norden hat uns sofort begeistert. Über einen verwunschenen Fußweg durch die Natur erreicht man in 5 Minuten einen tollen Strand, an dem wir immer ganz allein waren. Das Haus ist klein, bietet aber alles, was man für einen entspannten Urlaub braucht. Die Kinder haben sich völlig frei bewegt und die Zeit in der Natur genossen. Vielen Dank, Myrto - gern jederzeit wieder!!!

Absolut ruhig und sehr erholsam
Wir haben noch wunderschöne Tage Ende Oktober auf der Chalkidiki genossen. Das Haus liegt ruhig und idyllisch mit herrlichem Blick aufs Meer und ist sehr gut ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Für Ausflüge auf Athos (per Schiff), Kassandra und Sithonia ist das Haus günstig gelegen, viele schöne Strände sind nur wenige Fahrminuten entfernt. Der "Hausstrand" ist allerdings schon etwas weiter als nur 300 m entfernt (evtl. Luftlinie? oder Höhenmeter?), da geht es ein Stück bergab. Aber man spaziert durch einen Olivenhain und Wald. Vielen Dank für die schönen Tage, wir kommen gern wieder!

Man möchte das Anwesen gar nicht mehr verlassen - außer zum nahegelegenen Strand. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich die Freundlichkeit und Flexibilität der Hauseigentümer/Vermieter.

The perfect place for a relaxing holiday in wonderful surroundings
I can only agree with Barbara W. from Zurich: We found everything exactly as she describes. The fridge and the cupboards were so fully stocked that it would have not been necessary to shop for groceries on our way from Thessaloniki. There were loads of towels, both for the bathroom and the beach, there even were beach mats and a pool noodle. The view from the house is breathtaking and a quick walk brings you to a magnificent and very tranquil beach (with ample shade under fragrant pine trees). Myrto and her husband were very welcoming, they even met us at the airport on our way home to give us a farewell gift. We would love to come back!
