SUMMARY
This unique 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom Greek house located near Kampos Beach on the island of Patmos, Greece blends historic elements with modern conveniences and comfort. Dating back from the 18th century, this home has been significantly renovated with important all-new features for a relaxing, quiet getaway. The house is conveniently located 5 minutes away from Kampos Beach by foot; it is also very private, as the house is off the main road by taking a short and easy, 30-second walking path.

**The home is available for rent all year (please inquire about special pricing for rentals of over 1 month).**

GUEST ACCESS
Entire home and garden area. There is also a fig tree in the garden (you are free to pick fresh figs!).

GUEST INTERACTION
As I live in Los Angeles, California (USA), guests will primarily interact with one of my local house managers for any needs. If guests ever need to contact me directly, they are welcome to do so. I am 10 hours behind Patmos time.

If extra cleaning and/or late check-out (past 11am) is desired, a 48-hour notice is kindly requested via HomeAway (not with the local host). Approval is needed, and extra charges may apply.

OTHER NOTES
The home is ideally suited for 1-2 people to share the upstairs bedroom. It may also be appropriate for a small child (3rd person) to sleep on the downstairs sofa (Note: Since the house has a flight of stairs, it may not be appropriate for the elderly and/or those with recent injuries). When reserving the house, please indicate your bedding preference (e.g. 1 king bed or 2 single beds), as well as if a child will be using the sofa downstairs.

All guests will be welcomed to the island at the port by one of my local house managers and be taken directly to the house. The house manager will review basic essentials of the home with all guests and also be available in-person and/or via phone if there are questions and/or issues.

Price Promotions: Discounts with stays of 30 days or more.

Additional services (e.g. extra cleaning, late check-out past 11am, etc.): A 48-hour notice is kindly requested via HomeAway (not with the local host). Approval is required, and extra charges may apply.

NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW
1) The house is a short, 5 minute walk from KAMPOS BEACH, one of the most renowned, popular, yet peaceful beaches on the island. Kampos Beach includes sunbeds for rent, watersports, beautiful trees, 2 tavernas and 2 restaurants/cafes (all highly recommended).

Another wonderful stay
Another wonderful stay at this beautiful house. Perfectly positioned to enjoy the peace and magic of Patmos. We loved to be able to walk to the sea, the house is moments away from the most glorious beach. We will be back.

Un séjour agréable et reposant, parmi les vignes et les cultures maraîchères. Un aspect du charme de Patmos qui en recèle tant. La situation est proche de nombreuses plages.

About the host

Hosted by Nick Minas

Host profile image
Hi! My name is Nick Minas. I am the owner of the house in Patmos, Greece. I currently live in Los Angeles, where I am a marketing consultant, entrepreneur and actor. I love to travel across the world and regularly visit Patmos (once a year) and know it for many years. Both sides of my family are from this special island. If you ever want any ideas, please let me know. I also have very friendly and professional local house managers and support staff to help you with all of your needs. If there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable, please let us know!

Why they chose this property

I am so excited to have you enjoy the house, as it was passed down to me from my Greek grandmother who lived in with her family in the early 1900's. Of course, it was built before that for previous generations as well. The renovations make the house enjoyable today, with modern conveniences, but still retaining a classic Greek style.

What makes this property unique

This home was completely renovated in 2016. It maintains a classical architecture, while updated with convenient, modern furnishings. I love the quiet privacy of the countryside and patio. At the same time, it is extremely convenient (short, 5 minute walk) to Kampos beach, what I personally feel is the best beach on the island of Patmos. At the beach, you can find peace and quiet, or a relaxed, social environment, for example, at George's Place (restaurant/cafe).
