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.

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.

08/06/2018Kosta’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
