Everything about this place was perfect. The windmill has veen converted into a modern luxury house but it remains cute and full of charm. The view is spectacular, you can see most of the island because the windmill is located on a high point on a ridge. We loved staying here.

Ty United States of America

Maria’s property is so unique! We loved it. She provided such nice hospitality - homemade tart and jams, wine, coffee and bottled water. Big bathroom was lovely with spa slippers. We did not have a car but taxis worked fine to get into town and we walked locally to restaurants, catacombs and archaeology museum. The outdoor space is amazing.

Karina United States of America

This is a beautiful place and very unique. A highlight of our two weeks in Greece. When we were stranded by a transportation strike, they kindly let us stay an extra night.

James United States of America

Maria’s Windmill is the most beautiful place on earth! We loved every moment we spent here. Maria took extra care to make us feel welcome. Homemade jam and lovely biscuits, with all of the coffee, tea and drinks one could hope for.

Margaret United States of America

So cool staying at an old windmill. It's a spacious location, with a large terrace, separated kitchen and bathroom, and lounge area. You have a panoramic view of the island. There's three floors to the windmill and we stayed on the top one. Internet was good. Maria the host is unbelievable! She set us up with some goodies, cleaned the property every day, just went above and beyond. My favorite host of our trip.

Kyle United States of America

Many thanks to Maria for the hospitality and the many attentions. The windmill is a little gem. The location is perfect for discovering things nearby.

Norma Germany

This property is peculiar, fully renovated with eye for detail, amazing 360 degree view, perfect location to visit the island. The owner is super nice and available.

Giulia Belgium

The hospitality was amazing. The hostess mrs Maria made twice during our stay homemade cakes and cookies. Another morning we found fresh cherry tomatoes from their garden. The location was amazing. Panoramic 360o view. Beautiful traditional details in decoration. The kitchen was our favorite meeting point to share and cook with our daughters. Thank you for everything. We are looking forward to come back.

Fotis Greece

We liked everything. Amazing place and quite location.

Rushabh United Kingdom

Fab unusual place to stay. Full of quirky touches and excellently maintained and spotless. Plenty of space and loved the total privacy sun loungers. Amazing views of Plaka and Adamas.
