Best apartment in Sifnos!

The house is a traditional island house with great decoration. You will find everything you may need. The location is excellent. It’s the second time I stay at this house and I totally love it. The owner makes her best.

Absolute comfort and bliss in the heart of Apollonia.

Dora’s traditional houses are a haven. So clean and beautiful. The terrace overlooking the sea is special. We stayed for 5 nights in both houses. We had total privacy. Even though iit is only minutes to main restaurant precinct there was no noise at all. Dora is such a gracious and generous host.

Beautiful place to relax in the heart of one of Greece's best islands

We've stayed in a lot of self-catering places on a lot of Greek islands, and Dora's is the best. Simply decorated, with large rooms, and a gorgeous patio looking out over Kato Petali towards Paros. There is aircon in the bedroom and sitting room if you need it, and lots of windows to allow a through breeze if you don't. The patio is east-facing meaning there is welcome shade in the afternoon (but a roof terrace if you want to roast). The house is hidden down a back alley, only moments away from the bars, shops and restaurants of O Steno, Apollonia's pedestrianised main street, and from walking trails and bus routes taking you across the island. Dora is the perfect host - friendly and easily contactable - and the house is cleaned, bottled water topped up and rubbish removed every day.

Dora was a fabulous host! The property is located right in the middle of Apollonia town, so in very close proximity to restaurants and shops. It's also close to the bus stops and taxi rank. Dora put new water bottles in the fridge each morning and filled up the coffee. She also did some washing for us, which was greatly appreciated!!

Authentic cycladic house, perfect location

Wonderful place with a very charming outdoor area. Dora is a lovely host and helps you with everything you need. The location is 10 out of 10 if you want to live i Apollonia. We took the bus to the beach every day, very easy. 3 minutes walk to the busstop.
