Must we expect mosquitos in the house?
- Mosquitos are a common feature in Greece in the evenings and at night. That is why our house is equipped with high quality fly screens on all the windows. We do not allow the burning of mosquito repellents inside the house. Please, use chemical insect repellants instead.
Can we bring along our well-behaved dog?
- Unfortunately, we do not allow any pets in our house.
Is the house air-conditioned?

Are there any shopping facilities near the house?

Do we need a car to get around the island?
