Agnadi studios

I had booked this accommodation very carefully six months before our actual stay, after a long preliminary search - and our expectations were not only met but even exceeded. This is a villa in a Cycladic architectural style (just like all other houses in Astypalea) but there is even much more to this. The place is extremely thoughtfully and aesthetically arranged to the minutest detail, it is clean (and cleaned and maintained every day), offering all necessary basic facilities. It is large and with a large balcony overlooking a magnificent landscape with the sea, several small islands, a beach and a neighborhood of a dozen of similar whitewashed villas with blue windows and doors. It is several kilometers away from the chora (the main town of a Greek island) but there is a regular bus. However, it would be best for the prospective customer to have his/her own means of transportation - own or rented. This was the major reason for us (my wife and I) for choosing this place: you can find all kinds of accommodation in the chora of Astypalea but most of them state they offer no parking space - whereas in the village of Analipsi (where Agnadi studios is) there is more than enough space for your car, ATV, bike, etc. Astypalea has three main villages, the chora (Astypalea), Analipsi and Livadi, and Analipsi is, in my opinion, the best village to book a room/house in. There are much fewer tourists around, the place is calm and romantic. There is a very good sandy beach in front of the village (you have to walk some minutes to it or drive to it) with shallow water and marvelous views in all directions. There are enough tavernas and cafes and a mini market. Hearty thanks to the owners, who were very friendly and helpful! Even without asking, Anna will show you where to go on the island - and she will help you with other needs. Very highly recommended - both for a shorter or longer stay!
