Accueil fabuleux
Petit caverne au milieu de nulle part ,très joliment décorée et aménagée avec goût . Emplacement idéal pour explorer les magnifiques plages désertes de la côte ouest à condition d.avoir soit de bonnes jambes soit un véhicule 4X4. La maman de Maria est aux petits soins et nous a accueillis avec une suculente spécialité grecque et avait tout prévu pour le petit déjeuner du lendemain. Aventuriers attachés à votre confort : la maison est faite pour vous !

Lovely secluded “Hobbit House” with attentive hosts
I struggle a bit to give Terra Nullius five stars, because while it’s a chic, beautifully appointed, uniquely designed house, and Victoria and her daughter Maria are lovely responsive hosts... The drawback to this accommodation and why I would have otherwise given it fewer stars is its location. To be fair, it’s explained up front in the posting that Terra Nullius is located on the west side of the island and that public transport is not available (both true). What is less clear to first-time visitors to Milos is just how far away it really is, and what that will mean for your stay... You cannot walk to or from this property — especially not during summer months. Taxis do not go out there, and driving a 4x4 or a motorbike would be a dusty, Mad Max option probably only safe to undertake during daylight hours... So you’ll need to rent a car, and to do so as an American (Australian or Canadian), you now need an international drivers license according to Greek law. Also, expect a ~30 minute drive from Terra Nullius to Adamas, 35-40 minutes to Plaka, and 45 minutes to Pollonia. The island itself is beautiful and worth exploring to the fullest — also by boat to reach the landmarks that are only accessible by water — so spending an hour or two in the car every day should be expected no matter where you choose to stay. With that said, by about day 2, the drive to and from Terra Nullius twice a day (once to the beach, then home to shower, and back out again for dinner) becomes a nuisance, because it is far from everywhere. Also, be aware the house lacks air conditioning (as most properties in Milos do), and while our hosts provided a fan on request which made the temperature much more comfortable, leaving the windows open to draw in the cooler nighttime air attracted creatures of all shapes and sizes, particularly if we left any reading lights on. So, in a way, Terra Nullius is like “Glamping....”. A really neat and unforgettable experience — especially for my 9 year-old who dubbed Terra Nullius the “Hobbit House” — but probably not suitable for more than a couple nights unless cooking at home in romantic seclusion is what you want. Caveat emptor!

Bellissima esperienza. Posto meravigioso. Bellissima vista. Grande tranquillità.
La grotta è molto pulita e confortevole. I proprietari sono gentilissimi e ci hanno fornito duversi prodotti alimentari tipici molto graditi.
