Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Megas Gialos

Julius was a great host and listened to our needs and very proactive to help. We had issues arriving due to unresponsive house manager but Julius guided and helped us arrive safely. Everything is as described. Just needs fans for future guests as there is no air conditioning and some nights are less windy than others for air flow. It’s high in the mountains so make sure you rent a car that handle steep roads. Beautiful view to offer as well. Now that we know our way around, we would definitely stay there again. :)

Mrs. Mary was amazing and helped us with the arrival and departure, as well as with instructions for our stay, quite friendly, in general it was a very good experience, the house covered all our needs

Graciela was a great host. She cleaned the pool every morning, which was perfect for our kids, and gave us lots of tips for things to do on Syros. The house had everything we needed and we fehlt very comfortable. We'd love to come back!

The location of the property is a few kilometers from the Chora/harbour and close to the beaches in the east of the island. You have a beautiful view of the sea and the mountains from the balcony. In the evening you can see the illuminated Mykonos. We hired a car after arriving on Tinos and drove to the property. You can also park there right in front of the house. It is highly recommended to rent a car (before check-in) and leave it after checkout. The apartment was clean, had neat windows and doors with light-proof shutters. The bathroom is large and clean. We felt comfortable and there was plenty of room. Unfortunately, some guests in the house feed the cats from the neighborhood. This means that many cats come to the balcony all the time and begging for food and trying to get into the house. It would make sense to instruct guests not to feed cats. Thank you Eleftherios! We will be happy to come back :)

Louis & Thanos's place was lovely and just like described. They were really proactive in their communication and helpfull in their tips for restaurants and beaches. Thanos was there to greet us and showed us around when we arrived. There were also two beaches just next to the house, one rocky with lot of fish and other with sand. They even provided beach umbrellas and diving masks and kids beach toys. Travelling with a kid and family the set-up with two "separate" apartments with us downstairs with out 3 year old was really handy as then everyone didn't have to wake up at 6 o'clock. We couldn't have expect for a better experience!

Beautiful villa in a unique place. The views are breathtaking and the villa was just perfect for our group -3 adults and 4 children- so quiet, comfortable, super well equipped and views to die for! Plus there are 3 different terraces and each one has a unique charm/view. Finikas is a fantastic place for a family holiday. We would love to come back! A great thank you to Elina and Antonia.

Great house with great hosts! Close enough to the town and with great sunset views!

I am not sure that there are adequate words to describe our incredible stay at Irene’s home. Our family of 3 spent 5 amazing weeks in Irene’s beautiful home and we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. The house is even better than the pictures! And the view is absolutely incredible! It is easier to have a car if you stay here.. that way you can experience all the island has to offer! There are so many beaches, as well as downtown and ano Syros, to explore. Irene herself is such an amazing human ❤️ She made us feel right at home immediately, would bring us homemade food and even had a barbecue with us! She was always available for whatever we needed and had such wonderful recommendations ❤️ We were so sad to leave but will be back next year to stay with Irene again!

We visited this wonderful pigeon on August 10-13. The day before our arrival we were contacted by the sweetest Elena to ask us what time we will arrive at the accommodation and give us instructions to have easy access to the space. There she was waiting for us to be shown by her gracious father-in-law, Mr. Manos, who showed us the house. We were 4 people, comfortable inside the space and of course our favorite moment was our coffee outside of the house. The house was minimal, cool, shady, and spotless clean. It is 7’drive from the country and very close to the Saint Fokas beach! We really appreciated the fact that Elena came and changed our sheets the next day. We will definitely visit the island again and of course the dovecote the one who made us feel like home!

Everything was perfect Yannis very nice The Appart perfect with good view The Beach is beautiful with few people Thank you

I loved staying at Apik's place! I went there to write my book, and the peace and quiet helped me accomplish my goal. The view was stunning and the cottage itself was charming. Katerina and Apik were super helpful while I was there too, making it feel like I was staying with family. I would definitely come back to stay again.

Niki and her Mum are best of super hosts!! Their little touches, gifts and home cooked delicacies just make you feel so valued. The apartment itself is just so much more than the photos show. The views are spectacular and as well as being beautifully appointed it is pristine in cleanliness!! We loved our stay and would recommend in a heartbeat!! Niki gave us several local recommendations and all were fabulous. Thanks again Niki!

Evgenia is a great host! the house is really spacious and clean. great veranda with sea view, on a good location.

Ioannis was a strikingly helpful and engaged host. He picked me up from the port and was available if any small thing required any sort of attention. He was kind and generous. The flat is very nice, well equipped and very close to a gorgeous beach. Great balcony and view too. I went out of season, I wanted quiet and I got it. I would imagine that Agios Sostis comes to life later in May but when I was there there were no Taverna's available and only one small shop. If you have a car none of that matters, it is 10 minutes into Chora. It is a beautiful island. Classically Greek; picturesque, relaxed and warm.

We had a great time, the view is excellent, the only thing is that it’s very easy to get locked out of the house as the door doesn’t open from the outside even when unlocked.

Definitely lived up to our expectations! The house was exactly as shown in the photos: stunning! The location is also amazing and Nefeli is one of the best hosts! Great option if you want to be close to Chora and also explore the nearby villages! 100% recommended!

If I were to use one word to sum up our experience at George's, it would be "kismet". As our first time visitors, our idea was to stay in the Ano Syros/Ermoupolis area. However after a few days, we decided to move on to the South part of the island and that's when our vacation truly began. George welcomed us into his home as if we were longtime friends. He brought us local fruits, honeys, jams, pastries and wine, enough to keep us well fed for days. As a native, he was full of ideas and suggestions of were to eat, shop and visit. Next, I cannot tell you how magical his home is. Not only do you feel it, it is a fact that his home is in the most perfect location in all of Syros. The jaw dropping view, weather, calmness is unmatched and after 2 weeks and visiting every part of the island, I can say this with confidence. Often we would spend the entire day out on the deck soaking up the sun and the view in this beautiful and well appointed home. By far our best AIRBNB experience ever!

A really cosy house in a great location! Amazing balcony with two sections (one with a sofa and coffee table, one with a dining table and chairs). Great view! Also, The village is very nice and has a traditional tavern in a big square. Also, the village is very close to all the amazing villages of the island. Highly recommended!

Gorgeous and exactly like the photos. The one thing to be aware of is its location in a remote area on the mountains — not a bad drive, but make sure you’re renting a car and prepared to make a bit of a drive to and from the villa and your destinations. Jenny, Alexia’s local friend, will meet you at the port and guide you to the villa so you’ll know exactly where to go. The design is perfect and we didn’t want to leave!

My family and I had a truly wonderful stay at Arthur’s house. The outdoor patios are perfect for any time of the day—whether it’s breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just drinks. We always found the ideal spot to relax, enjoy the view, and soak in the atmosphere. The house is spacious and has a quaint, pleasant charm that exceeded our expectations. The pictures (as of August 2024) don’t quite capture just how special this place is. We also loved the warm hospitality of the kind person who came every morning to care for the house and prepared a delicious Greek coffee. It was a great experience, and we would be very happy to return to Syros and stay at Arthur’s house again.

Pleasant, well-equipped house at the start of many hiking trails.

We were thoroughly impressed with the villa. It was completely as described and provided everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The villa was very well presented, extremely modern, everything was in good condition and worked. The view from the villa was awesome and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting on anyone of the four terraces gazing at the view or enjoying the sunset. The villa is well positioned to access a wide range of facilities such as bakery, supermarket, butchers or vegetable shop and excellent restaurants. Many very good beaches were also close by. Andreas the manager of the villa was excellent to deal with, he was proactive and extremely prompt to respond. I would say a car is essential to make the most of the villa and the island. I also agree with a previous reviewer who suggested that good driving skills are helpful. All in all we totally recommend a stay in the villa and would definitely return.
