This villa property is a 400+ year old stone cottage, with modernised amenities and a wild garden, in a quiet but spectacular setting with a view to the sea, on a hill overlooking the bay of Korthi. It’s just 5 minutes by car from the village of Korthi Bay where you can do your local food shopping to cook at home or sit and eat in one of the many bars, seaside restaurants, and tavernas. Alternatively there’s a romantic walk down the terraces to the town, going down ancient staircases past ruined houses. It’s perfectly situated for trips to lots of beautiful local beaches, some of the best on the island, for hiking along the well-marked island trails, and just 30 minutes from Andros’s capital, Chora, for a bit of island sophistication. DO rent a car or bring your own. Strongly recommended! You’ll have your own super convenient parking above the house.

Eurof and Yianna, who live outside of Greece, restored and own the property, which is managed by Antonis, based in Andros. Don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions/issues.

Chones is a romantic village with a beautiful Byzantine church right next to the house, on steep terraced land leading to the bay, with stairs you can walk down (and up, if you’re fit). Korthi is in the south of the island with some of the best beaches, many sheltered from the wind. Walking is possible but a car is recommended! There’s lots of things to do! Take a 4x4 or hire a boat to go to even more beautiful deserted and secret beaches, hike to ancient monasteries, day trip to Chora with its world-famous art museum and annual exhibitions, visit the UNESCO world heritage site Syneti Gorge, walk the Dipotamata, take an adventurous drive to some of the most famous beaches in Europe, just a little further away -- you will never run out of things to do. Then come back and relax, have a shower, take a drink on the terrace overlooking the bay, make a delicious meal with local ingredients and eat with your friends under the stars. Afterwards, listen to the sounds of nature at night and the owls hooting gently on roof the historic church next door -- think about what a good idea it was to stay here!
