The place has everything we need and the hosts are very, very friendly, helpful and generous. There are a few houses in the neighborhood but we were mostly alone there. It's 20 minutes by foot to the little supermarket in Ormos if you go slowly. I recommend this place for everybody who likes quietude and nature. ##### Kathryn H.

Der Vermieter war nicht persönlich vor Ort, aber reagierte sehr schnell auf unsere Fragen. Morgens mit dem Meeresrauschen aufwachen war ganz besonders toll. Der Zugang zum Meer ist hier sehr steinig, aber mit Wasserschuhen geht es. Die Klimaanlagen funktionierten sehr gut, was wichtig war, da es in den letzten Nächten seht heiß war. Wir waren zufrieden und haben den Blick auf das Meer sehr genossen. ##### Carmen P.

Wir verbrachten eine Woche in diesem Ferienhaus und waren rundum zufrieden. Die Lage direkt am Meer und ohne direkte Nachbarn ist wirklich einzigartig - eine herrliche Ruhe. Stamatis haben wir nicht kennengelernt, er war aber per E-Mail immer erreichbar. Wir können das Haus empfehlen. ##### Lars B. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Manuela W. 21 Jul 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Ein sehr schöner Urlaub in traumhaft ruhiger Umgebung Das direkt am Meer gelegene Haus hat alles, was man braucht, es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Den Vermieter Stamatis konnten wir nicht persönlich kennenlernen, da er gesundheitsbedingt verhindert war. Allerdings hat er uns per mail jede Frage immer sofort beantwortet und Hilfe geschickt, als wir uns einmal versehentlich ausgeschlossen haben. Den Aufenthalt haben wir sehr genossen, wir hatten dort eine himmlische Ruhe, schöne Natur, ein traumhaft blaues Meer und jede Menge Entspannung. Wir können das Haus auf den Wellen allen Ruhe suchenden empfehlen. Und Samos, das wir schon mehrfach besucht haben, sowieso, es ist wirklich eine traumhafte, kleine und sehr grüne Insel mit liebenswerten Menschen. Hoffentlich bis irgendwann mal wieder. ##### Manuela W.

Im Oktober 2020 dürften wir für eine Woche in diesem wunderschönen Haus wohnen. Die ersten beiden Tage haben wir uns nur um das Haus herum aufgehalten, ein herrlicher Blick, der schattige Platz zum Ausruhen, ein Kieselstrand und das Mittelmeer mit glasklarem Wasser und Schwärmen kleiner Fische vor der Haustür, was braucht es mehr! Wir hatten den Strand ganz für uns alleine, wir hätten uns schon etwas mehr Betrieb gewünscht, aber die Pandemie hatte die meisten Reisenden verschreckt. In kurzer Entfernung das kleine Hafenstädtchen Ormos mit vielen kleinen Restaurants am Meer, Wanderwege in den Bergen, Sandstrände im Westen, all das ist schnell zu erreichen! Wir alle haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder ##### Michael K. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heinz- Ulrich W. 25 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful house on an wonderful island We've been in greece for many years, but this was our first visit of Samos and we're absoluty excited. We stayed at the the house on the waves for 14 days with 3 people. The house is directly on the sea. You fall asleep and wake up with the sound of the sea. Outside the house are a lot of cots and seating possibilities to have breakfast outdoor. Inside the house you have everything what you need and it is all very clean and under very good conditions. Stamatis gave us a lot of tipps for trips around Samos and a lot of tipps of restaurants and all tipps of Stamatis were very helpful for us. It was a wonderful trip and we'll come back again!! ##### Heinz- Ulrich W.

Die Küche ist bis auf die alte Kaffemaschiene top eingerichtet. Da das Haus sehr abgelegen ist braucht man ein Auto. Bis Ormos Hafen braucht man 20min zu Fuss. ##### Thomas T.
