A lovely stay, very relaxing, great location for the breathtaking beaches. Great food at the nearby tavernas. In all a great holiday. Would recommend this place to anyone. Thank you Elena & family.

We had a fantastic week swimming in the turqoise sea, building castles with the white stones, eating fish and greek salad, and drinking Mythos. We were all brown and relaxed. This house was the most perfect place to wake up in and come back to at the end of the day. Thank you.

Thank you very much for the wonderful stay at this beautiful and peaceful place. We enjoyed exploring the island, spending time at the beautiful beaches and coming back to MELI and feel home. You have created a wonderful place - All the best for the future.

Je retrouve la Grèce de mes souvenirs (il y a 30 ans!)..., l' appel desespéré de l' âne au petit matin, le chaut omniprésent des cigales, le bouzouki au coeur de la unit le corps et visage usé des veuves, les petits monastères perdus dans les oliviers.. le charme de votre maison si bien conçue, si accueillante, si confortable. Merci pour les moments de pérénité.

Wonderful place also for children, To be rent for at least a week. One advice: kitchen should be used (even though there are so nice tavernas around..).

Giorno di partenza. L'unico "brutto" di una meravigliosa permanenza. Siamo stati colpiti dalla bellezza e dall' incanto di questa isola e, soprattutto, della vostra calda accoglienza. Non é mai facile pronosticare un ritorno. La nostra vita non é detto che ce lo permetta. Sicuramente porteremo nel nostro cuore il ricordo di questa vacanza in "casa Meli". Ciao a tutti.
