The neighborhood, formerly known as the Noblemen’s quarters, is very pleasant, near the Municipal Museum and the byzantine fortress, with many old chapels and a square with a characteristic maple tree which provides cool shade in the hot days. The beautiful fine sand beach, Magasià, is a 10 minute walk from the house down a long set of stone steps that offers a stunning view of the Aegean Sea – figure that the return back up the steps toward the village will take about 20 minutes. The village centre, where you will find the bank, post office, groceries, taverns and cafés, is within walking distance through the picturesque streets. The village is a pedestrian area and cars and mopeds must stay outside the town limits in one of two designated parking areas – from the house it is a distance of 100 meters to one car park and 200 meters to the other. There is a bus to all island destinations but also taxis, 'rent a car' and 'rent a bike' agencies. From the airport or from the port the guests can arrive by bus or by taxi. The owners, who speak English, German, French, Italian and Greek, will be present to greet the guests upon arrival and will be available to give information about the island regarding the history, the beaches, the shops, the restaurants. They will be generally available in order to help the guests and make their stay as pleasant and comfortable as possible. Tourist License / Licencia de turismo N °: AADE 1688More
