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.

A perfect place to stay in Ermoupoli. The room (pink room) was romantic and beautiful. I stayed alone for a week and loved the space. Corner room with incredible light... read more all day long. Sunrises breathtaking. Great views from the private sunny balcony. Thoughtful decor, fitting of the historic mansion.
The marble bathroom and shower was luxurious and the hot water was great.
The king sized bed was very comfortable and the linens were high quality.
The shared kitchenette was just steps away from the room. I enjoyed making simple meals and it was a very efficient use of space.
A convivial villa with many outdoor spaces with tables and chairs.
The host met me and accompanied me to the villa which was very much appreciated. Great local tips.
I would highly recommend a stay here!!!Angela

Kostas truly is a “super” host. We can in by ferry around 9pm and he stayed up and met us in the square to show us the apartment. He then... read more took the time to give us a map and mark it for us with everything we needed: cafes, gyro spots, bars, landmarks, restaurants etc...
The apartment itself is magnificent. It has an incredible view that lives up to the photos. We also really enjoyed the bathroom, something that pleasantly surprised us. The hallway is shared but this was not a problem.Alyssa
07/08/2018Kostas was extremely kind and generous. When we arrived he sat downstairs with us and gave us a thorough overview of local restaurants, bars, and beaches both in Ermoupoli and... read more around the island. He also let us know about the international film festival happening at the time which we had a great time at.
The house was beautiful and clean with two lovely balconies overlooking the city. There was also a shared courtyard which was beautiful. The courtyard also came with a sweet kitty which we loved spending time with.
Overall, a great experience. We would definitely return!Leah

This was the perfect place to enjoy the beauty of a truly spectacular Greek island, complete with great people and crystal clear waters just a short walk away from this... read more home. Kostas was always around to answer questions and make sure we were comfortable. The kitchen was a great place to prepare meals as it had every tool you could ever need. Also a very short walk from the port, perfect for day trips and just very convenient distance from the port to the home. Kostas met us in the town square so we had no problems locating the home! Great stay I hope to come back.

Certainly value for money and a great experience.
