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.

We stayed seven people here for several days and nights. A nice and relaxing place with a home away from home warm feeling. Very friendly and kind hosts. Though, if... read more you have problems to walk on stairs, look for something else. This is in an area where you need to walk many stairs. No possibility to take a car here. However, if you don’t mind, this is very nice with an modern old feeling.

Kostas was excellent throughout: easy to communicate with, fast replying and always accommodating.
The room is up on the hill, so expect some stair climbing , but it is... read more totally worth it and part of the charm. Beautiful views over the city and port from the balcony. Very spacious room, and good facilities overall.
Can recommend and would definitely come back.

From the moment we arrived on Syros it felt like we were at home. Kostas met us and walked us to the house, all the while explaining the best things... read more to do around the town and island. Kostas and Elisa are the most gracious hosts, helping in any way possible to make your stay enjoyable and comfortable. The view from the top floor is incredible, watching he sunset with a glass of wine in hand is a must. The furnishings and layout of the house is perfect, as well as impeccably clean. Very comfortable beds, and AC for the hot days. We spent breakfasts out on the shared courtyard. The shared kitchen is well equipped for your short stay. We did a cooking class with Elisa one evening and learned some traditional Greek recipes that were absolutely delicious! We plan to come back with the rest of our family— this place is a true gem.

Love, love, loved this place and it’s owners. It was a pure delight to stay with them. The view was perfect! The bed was very comfortable. ... read more Lots of personal touches each day, like local candy or fresh fruit to sample in the kitchenette. Everything we needed was provided and their hospitality was beyond impressive. We definitely hope to return some day! Kostas met us in town and walked us to our place, they showed us around their villa, and sat with us to share/suggest activities, etc. during our stay. We ordered a delicious breakfast basket homemade by Elisa with home grown ingredients, which we gobbled up the first day. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to arrange a cooking class with her this trip (which she offers)...next time we will absolutely plan ahead and include that in the experience! Wonderful home & hosts to be sure!!

Villa Maria is a wonderful space right next to the center of Syros. An absolutely beautiful island, you can expect to find amazingly authentic experiences at incredibly reasonable prices, with... read more many beaches, restaurants, shops, and cafes. The classical architecture is quite beautiful, and the Villa itself has a lovely courtyard and roof for looking out into the bay and up to Ano Syros. If you are looking for a wonderful central location, this spot is perfect for you as it allows you an easy walk to all you need as well as a great space to relax privately. Kostas provided wonderful recommendations - every place we visited on his recommendation was fantastic. As a clean space with a small kitchenette and beautiful outdoor spaces, it is wonderfully complemented by the authentic beauty of Syros. Look no further and stay here!
