“The Good Life Greece was set up to give you the best possible holiday…
We renovated old stone houses by the seaside, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, on the most peaceful Cycladic island, Syros. Close to Athens, free from cruise ships and package tours but open all year round. We filled our guests fridges with amazing wine, organized fresh bread and organic meat deliveries, and set up open sea swim days, cultural tours of Ermoupoli, hiking days, free bikes for children and parents, a help-yourself-vegetable garden and chicken coop – anything our guests wanted to do – we set it up.”
“But comfort came first…
Being sustainable and off-the-grid for energy and water is important, but people want comfort. Bedding, linens, good coffee machines, washing machines, great views for outdoor dining, they matter too. We call it ‘Humble Luxury’, being surrounded by the beauty of the sun setting over the sea as you drink perfect wine with your friends and family listening to Hatzidakis. That is happiness. Aristotle said certain things created the Good Life, happiness through simplicity and nature were the essence. Old fashioned, maybe, but holidays are for re-charging. Only nature can do that.”
