Villa Maria is a listed 19th century neo-classical mansion. Built by a local factory owner in 1873 at the height of Ermoupolis’ prosperity, it is a fine example of the architecture of the period. In restoring it we have preserved all the original features —wooden floors and ceilings, marble bathrooms, decorative mouldings— and used antique furniture to give it a comfortable but authentic feel.

Kostas and Elisa’s place was fantastic. The villa is close to town, with a beautiful view of the water. We opted for Elisa’s breakfast basket, which we ate outside on... read more the patio with Greek coffee and homemade breads and jams overlooking the town of Ermopolis. A lovely morning!
The room was bright and clean and very comfortable. And Kostas and Elisa were welcoming, friendly and full of tips on what to do on the island of Syros.
Overall great stay at Villa Maria.

If you are looking to stay in a lively, working Greek town, not dominated by tourism, with beautiful architecture and food, then Ermoupolis is a great location. If you want... read more to stay in one of its traditional mansions overlooking the town and port then this property is perfect. The rooms are large and beautifully decorated and kostas was on hand throughout to help with any questions. The kitchen is quite small and the outdoor space is shared with 2 other apartments but this was never a problem as there is space for everyone.

Kosta’s quick responses and local tips make staying in this place a great example of what a super host means. The cooking area is amazing but our stay was short... read more so this was under utilized. The outdoor terrace was beautiful but the apartment itself had no views. Please know that you must walk lots of steps from town. But you will be rewarded with a beautiful quiet apartment

Syros was our second stop on our island hopping journey and it was perfect to offset everything of Mykonos. Villa Maria was a beautifully up kept building with a lot... read more of "old work charm" just like the description says. Kostas was awesome and provided easy directions for meeting him when we arrived off of our ferry. He gives great recommendations for foods and activities as well! It does require a little jaunt up a few flights of stairs through the town but once there it's a perfect getaway.

Φοβερό κτίριο, φοβερή θέα και μια εκπληκτική αυλή!
Πεντακάθαρος χώρος, προσεγμένος και ακόμα πιο όμορφος απ' όσο φαίνεται στις φωτογραφίες. Θα ευχαριστηθείτε κάθε γωνιά του και κάθε μικρή πινελιά που έχουν προσθέσει οι οικοδεσπότες. Ο Κώστας ήταν άμεσα διαθέσιμος για ό,τι χρειαστήκαμε και γενικώς πολύ φιλόξενος.
Η βίλλα, εκτός της αίσθησης που προσφέρει, έχει ένα ιδιαίτερο χαρακτηριστικό: οι αυλές και οι ταράτσες της προσφέρουν τρομερή θέα ενώ ταυτόχρονα η βίλλα βρίσκεται μόλις 3' από την πλατεία Μιαούλη.
Συνίσταται ανεπιφύλακτα για διακοπές στην Ερμούπολη.
