Family-friendly vacation rentals in Megas Gialos

Graciela was a great host. She cleaned the pool every morning, which was perfect for our kids, and gave us lots of tips for things to do on Syros. The house had everything we needed and we fehlt very comfortable. We'd love to come back!

We had such a fantastic stay at the Veranda House. Vasiliki, Dimitris and Alexandra were extraordinary hosts. They greeted us at the port to drive us to the house with such a warm welcome. They ensured that we had everything we needed throughout our stay, and provided us with valuable recommendations for restaurants and beaches in Syros. We were so surprised and impressed with the amazing homemade food that they provided us, which was a comfort after a long travel day. We enjoyed all of the amenities in the Veranda House. The garden area with the hot tub was a beautiful and relaxing environment where we enjoyed spending time together as a family. The house itself was extremely clean and well-equipped with everything we possibly could have needed. We would love the opportunity to stay at the Veranda House again. It was truly the most memorable and special Airbnb experience we have ever had. We would highly recommend the Veranda House while visiting Syros.

We had a wonderfull time at Anna's and Giorgios quiet place on the edge of the village of Azolimnos. There is the the possibility of swimming almost on the doorstep near a small harbor. The most fantastic thing was the spectacular sunrises over the sea right in front of the panoramic windows and the spacious terrace. In one room you could even watch the spectacle from the bed. If you didn't want to, you could have darkened the room with electric night blinds. There is a mini market within easy walking distance. In the other direction we went on short walks along the coastline with turquoise-colored bays and the small beach "Santorini". Buses stop opposite the mini market, which travel through the island clockwise and anti-clockwise. We could easily do without renting a car. The landlords live on the ground floor and were extraordinarily helpful and friendly.

Syros is special, but Dimitri and his wife, Iro, are even more so! From the moment Dimitri picked us up at the port and drove us to their place, we felt completely looked after, safe, and truly cared for. The house is GORGEOUS- photos don’t do it justice. Within hours, I felt as though I was at home, not just on vacation. You are literally on the water, with a view from the top/main floor from every bedroom, and direct access from the lower level. I have never felt so sad having to leave in all my travels and stays. I will definitely be back! Thank you Dimitri and Iro!

We had an amazing stay! Antonis picked us up from the ferry and gave some recommendations for the area. The apartment is super cute and the area perfect. You have a supermarket in walking distance and nice coffee shops, restaurants. This was the perfect place for some days on the island to explore (by car). They were super flexible with check in and check out times, which was amazing due to ferry times. We would always come back to this place. Thank you!

Great house, with huge spaces, perfect for many people!! Very close to the harbor!!! We had a great time in Tinos! Thanks for hosting.

We stayed at Antonio’s’ for 8 nights; I think it wasn’t until we left that we fully appreciated what a privilege it had been to stay there. Luxury accommodation it is not, but instead there is peace and privacy with a beautiful outlook & the sound of the sea. We only left the accommodation a few times, once to get shopping from the town (it’s a bus ride away), & a few times to walk to a sandy beach 10 minutes down the road. The rest of our stay we were content to use the pebbly cove by the house & to sit in the garden and read, accompanied by four entertaining young cats. There is a taverna across the road which serves excellent food but unfortunately no shop in the area (closed for the season). Antonis was a great host, he collected us from the port & took us to a supermarket for supplies. He lives behind the property so was on hand if needed, but not intrusive. The house itself is spacious with quiet air con & all the essentials for keeping clean (hot water) & basic self-catering.

A beautiful house in a calm small Greek village with a lot of cats. Yannis was so nice and always ready to recommend things and help out!

Wow. Incredible location with an amazing view. Super comfortable with a very communicative and responsive host. Would definitely stay here again if we ever get back to this beautiful city. Thank you Eleni!!

We had an absolutely amazing time at Irini's place. It is beautifully decorated and clearly a well looked after property. We stayed for 4 weeks and really used it as a home from home, it had everything we needed - great internet connection, lots of space, lovely terrace, kitchen full of utensils and appliances etc. Irini is a very accomodating and generous host and helped us whenever questions came up. The area is very quiet and peaceful which we loved, but also 10 mins away from the Chora which had everything we needed. We hope to be back again in future. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

Amazing location that has the best views on the island! Host was helpful and responsive.

I agree with previous reviews. Friendly welcoming staff, nothing too much trouble, beautiful setting, lovely apartment, great air con. My partner was ill during our stay and Maria was available and responded quickly to my request for assistance. The road down to the place would have been an issue for me if I were our main driver: it is unmade and steep in places. My partner was fine with it so if you are a reasonably confident driver it’s no problem.

Great ocean view and extremely clean inside with a lovely garden

Beautiful apartment in a great location. Shops, beach and restaurants nearby. Thanks for everything!

This was my second stay at this place. It is amazing! The view, the unit, the village. I cannot even begin to describe how peaceful it is. Alex is amazing. Always honest, proactive, and thoughtful. From the clean unit to the thoughtful extras, it was another great stay. I am already planning for next year!

We were attracted by the old charm of this beautiful house and it's mature gardens when we found the listing but nothing had prepared us for the deeply moving experience of inhabiting this work of art. It was a feast for the senses and we hardly wanted to leave the property to explore the island durring our 10 day stay. It is an artists' house best enjoyed by other artists and all those who cannot live without beauty and can see past the odd inconvenience of a preloved space.

We had a fabulous stay in this beautiful typical, comfortable, large house with plenty of outdoor spaces and very well designed for several families. The view is incredible from everywhere, very nice pool in a beautiful and quiet environment while being only 10 minutes from the pretty Kivi station with beaches and restaurants, supermarket. Essential car Dimitri on site is full of good advice and very responsive if needed. Hoping to get back to Syros and Dani soon.

What a beautiful villa! The pool was fantastic, and the views were priceless. We had everything we needed and more. Every detail was thought out perfectly. Kameliya was so friendly, responsive, helpful, and proactive in tending to our needs. She spoiled us with ice cream, cold waters, and espresso cups upon arrival, and had a box of hand me down toys to engage the kiddos. All 8 of us slept comfortably with plenty of AC units on both floors. We used the laundry/wash machine once, and it worked great. Also, the restaurant/tavern Kameliya recommended was exceptional. We didn’t want to leave and hope to return.

The home and grounds were just as appeared in photos. A modern home built in classical style and old world quality sitting upon immaculate grounds. Korina, the owner stays on the lower level and is always available to ensure we were enjoying ourselves and to make sure everything is in order with the home. Our stay was a much needed treat in luxury, peace and tranquility.

Leo was the best host! So friendly, responsive and helpful! He gave us wonderful recommendations for the island including restaurants, massages, private chef, villages, beaches, etc. you can’t ask for a better host! The house was beautiful. The decor was gorgeous and so unique. The outdoor area was very windy while we were there so we didn’t enjoy the pool as much as we would have liked but the bbq area with the swings and table is sheltered from the wind and we enjoyed spending time there as a family. We really loved tinos. The villages are beautiful and the views are so stunning everywhere, including at the house. We loved our time in Tinos!

Clean and spacious Great for families or group of friends Very welcome hosts Views from the villa is picturesque

We had a wonderful week here and will happily return. The view from both balcony and living room is superb, with a view out to some of the other islands on a clear day. The location is very quiet, and it is lovely to just sit there and relax. Because of the layout of the different balconies, it is always possible to find a shaded location, which is nice when trying to get a bit of respite from the sun. The pool is clean and very refreshing, and there is plenty of space to lie/sit around it, though not much natural shade (but there are parasols) The apartment is clean and comfortable, and had all we needed to prepare breakfast and a couple of basic meals. It's in a quiet part of the island, but there is a nice taverna at the bottom of the hill, and another restaurant within easy walk. The two beaches are also within an easy walk and are both very pleasant. There is also a mini-market, though it was closed when we tried to use it. Communication with the host was fantastic
