Vania and Steffano were always helpful and exceedingly courteous. The house has good air conditioning, a large garden, wifi is excellent and overall a comfortable house. It is close to the nearest town (you can walk there in ten minutes) which is attractive, has lively bars, decent restaurants and there is also a local trattoria three minutes walk away which serves good food and wine. Our two week visit however was considerably marred by a neighbouring property which seemed to be a log cutting factory. They started work sometimes as early as 7.30 a.m. with the sound of heavy machinery and continued throughout the day and most weekday evenings until 9.45 p.m. The sound of a screeching saw did not help matters nor did the considerable acrid smoke wafting over . At the beginning of the second week we considered moving out but instead opted to spend two nights in Naxos mid week. We asked our hosts about this via WhatsApp but received no reply. We can say that if we had known or been made aware of this factory next door we would have sought another place to stay. A pity as this characterful house has many advantages."
