Beautiful house straight onto the sea, quiet with beautiful views.

Amazing location, beautiful terrace to enjoy the views. A stones throw from the sea and still close to restaurants and shops but away from the noise of bustle of the main port. Beautiful views from the bedroom looking straight out at the sea.

Nothing, it was perfect for us

Amazing location but not extremely comfortable.

Location is fantastic. Gorgeous terrace with superb view despite the electrical pole standing right in the middle of it. Apart from that, the house is very cute but very small ideal for a couple.

Design far from optimal (lots of unnecessary steps, poorly insulated walls, only one bathroom not accessible from the inside of the house…). Beware that there is a bug on Booking’s website as we booked for 3 and were asked for a supplement since the confirmation came out for 2 only… The total plus taxes was almost 10% of the initial price. Booking customer service was useless, basically dismissing our claim and not even answering our second message… Mediocre internet connection that doesn’t really allow to work remotely.

Quel magnifique moment

Tout est fabuleux en cette période de novembre: la maison au bord de l'eau, la vue depuis la terrasse, la beauté et le calme de l'ile, la proximité du port d'Hydra...

Ok, not more than that BUT Hydra is a wonderful Island

Very basic kitchen. A lot of things were looked (equipments etc). Not a very friendly welcome, no one showed up and met us and the contact person was aggressive when talking to her.

Fantastic views but....

We absolutely loved the views from the terrace. Just idyllic to watch the boats and sea. We loved being so nr the little beach of Kamini. The two tavernas nearby were superb with great views of the fantastic sunsets. We were pretty near the Leonard Cohen memorial bench which was special to us and part of the reason we'd come to Hydra.

Quite alot wasn't good lm afraid. Thankfully we were just a couple, if we'd have gone with friends we'd have fallen out over the choice of bedrooms! Ours was a lovely one with 3 windows over the front/sea. The 2 single beds had been made up as a double which was perfect. Or, it was a dark tiny double with a bed pushed up against the wall and a terrible window. (The single bed room would be fine for a child.) We didn't use the kitchen to cook, it was very odd and not user friendly. The shower was the worst room. My husband managed to secure the shower head to the wall bracket with tape so that helped. The shower curtain seemed cheap plastic and stained on hem edging. No where to put a washbag and very slippery once you stepped outside shower part. I truly hated it! The terrace was superb as mentioned but no shade. Despite there being a parasol stand, there was no umbrella for it. The villa is a long walk from the town but a very pleasant one, about 20 mins. We understood there was a shop nearby but after we arrived at the villa were told it had recently closed down. That can't be helped but it would have been nice to know that in a message before we'd left the town, as we then had to haul ourselves back down and up again to buy bread, milk etc after a very long journey. (We were in contact with owner on WhatsApp in order to to meet woman who let us in, so a heads up on that would have been so helpful) Others have described the villa as 'rustic' and l agree with that. We had read the description and reviews so weren't expecting 5* or anything! It was absolutely fine once you got used to it ....'m just saying what l felt wasn't that good.

We loved the location and the view but we were disappointed by the lack of basic facilities.

The view from the balcony was beautiful. However, location on its own is not enough for 8 day stay. You need to provide basic facilities.

We were horrified to discover that the very very basic main bathroom was outside and you had to walk across the outdoor terrace to get to it. It was an outdoor bathroom, it was like camping and not so good to have to go out at night on the dark, or in the rain. There is no bath, even though it is advertised as having one. The kitchen comprised a microwave and electric hot plate, no proper cooker. No washing machine or dishwasher. You could not cook a meal there. This added to the feel of very basic camping. We only found coffee and salt in the cupboards and one bottle of water. There were 13 padlocks in the house, on the cupboards, trunks,wardrobes , locks in every room, even the china cabinet which is prominent in the photos. This made us feel that the owners did not trust anyone. Made us wonder why they were renting the house at all. It looks lovely in the pictures but it is a very basic house and if you love the view and don't mind basic living it's for you. Finally, it is not a beach front property, as advertised.

A SHORT BOOSTING VACATION WITH A BREATHTAKING VIEW!!!

I really enjoyed the fantastic breathtaking view of the place. The house was very close to the harbour. Generally we had a great time there!!! Chara, the cleaning lady welcomed and guided us straight to the house. Mr Dimitris the homeowner was also great and caring!!!

Gorgeous house in a beautiful location right next to the sea.

What a beautiful house in a perfect location. 15 mins walk from the centre of Hydra town, right on the coast path next to the sea. There is a little stoney beach 2 mins walk away, and you can swim off the rocks just in front of the house. The roof terrace is quite private.

The Kitchen is quite basic, but that is part of its charm. The shower was broken, but usable. Don't expect 5* luxury!

Amazing Greek villa in a great location with stunning views

Amazing authentic Greek villa in a beautiful location with a beach nearby, close to water taxi's and great tavernas in the hamlet of Kamini. A 15 minute stroll to Hydra town. Villa was comfortable and very clean with stunning views and sunsets from the patio. Some reviews talk of the villa being basic but we had everything we needed including a coffee machine with coffee provided, towels and beach towels and plenty of hot water. The owner was very reposnive when we had a problem with a door lock. We would definitely come back here in a heart beat!

Being very picky - An attachment for the shower so you dont need to hold the shower and ideally a couple of sun loungers for the patio.

Good

The view from the balcony is totally breathtaking. It is so stunning it doesn't matter what the rest of the place looked like. Maria, who met us, was very kind. The bedrooms had beautiful views and it was accurate to the photographs.

The bathroom was poor. The shower head attachment was broken from the wall and the drain was blocked so it filled up with water. There were also lots of ants coming out of the wall.

Very good

The house had a beautiful view. It was a 20 min walk from the main port where the shops and restaurants are, but the walk is easy to navigate even at night and goes along the coastline/shore, so it is very pleasant.

The shower water never got hot enough to take an enjoyable shower, the bathroom wasn't very clean when we arrived either.
