Fantastic villa. A lovely week, the host George was very attentive and had lots of recommendations. Any (very minor) issues were swiftly dealt with. Great location - close enough to Batsi but secluded. We loved it, thank you

Amazing views and wonderful villa

Thank you Vana and family for letting us rent your beautiful house! We have rented several house in the past 6 years but this place is our favorite. Large enough to have your own space (9 adults and a child of 22 months) but with great common areas for meals and board games :) We have never had a more attentive host! Thank you Vana ❤️ Regards form Berit, Mads and the family (Denmark)

Idyllic Vacation Spot

Vana is a gracious and extremely helpful host. She went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable. She has excellent food recommendations across the island. The house is wonderful and the view..... you will never want to leave. Even with the Meltemi winds wrecking havock on our beach and boating plans the patio was still a comfortable haven to enjoy the incredible views. It was perfect for our group of nine. Plenty of room to be together and apart. Can't wait to go back again!

Spectacular property!

The owners are so friendly and well organized. They built the place with relaxation in mind. The infinity pool and the view to the Aegean are dreamy indeed. Our group of four especially enjoyed the great open porch above the pool. We hiked on nearby well marked trails, went to different beaches, loved the tavernas in town. Andros is still rather wild. We enjoyed hearing the goats and roosters and cows nearby and especially loved the sound of the sea at night. The property is immaculately maintained and the rooms are simple and comfortable. 5 stars from us!

exceptionnel!

Nous avons séjourné deux semaines dans la villa de Vana et Pavlos et tout était parfait! Les propriétaires sont charmants, accueillants, extrêmement disponibles: ils nous ont accueillis à l'arrivée du ferry et raccompagnés pour notre départ. Toutes les adresses qu'ils nous ont recommandées sur l'île nous ont ravis. La villa est magnifique, parfaitement équipée et très fonctionnelle. Le cadre et la vue sont splendides. L'extérieur est particulièrement bien aménagé avec des terrasses magnifiques. Le service pendant le séjour est parfait. Bref, un séjour idéal à recommander sans hésitation!

A BIG SLICE OF PARADISE!

After a long day of travel, the prize is worth it. If you're looking for faults or negatives at Etoile de Mer, I doubt you'll find them. The house is incredible. Tastefully and sensitively designed, well-equipped with thoughtful attention to detail. The main part of the house has 2 bedrooms then 3 subtly separate 'suites'/rooms complete the 'hub'. Every room is en-suite and each faces the stunning views of the pool and beyond. It is expansive enough to find your own privacy.... It is clear how passionate the owners, Vana and Pavlos are about the welfare of their guests. Nothing seems too much trouble and they are very hands-on. The house is high up a hill so a lot of acceleration is required to get your car up! There are tiny geckos running in and out of the garden rocks and the sound of the cicades adds to the joy! The (fishing) village of Batsi is a short drive away as is a supermarket, butcher and baker. There are some waterside restaurants serving delicious food, fresh fish recommended. Vana will tell you everything you need to know. It's a challenge to leave this villa, however we suggest you enjoy its traquility (sometimes there's a strong bereeze) as well as exploring the island. The main town Andros (approx 45 minutes' drive) is charming and we found a fantastic beach at the end of a windy track called Zorkos. The water is warm! And there is a beach cafe plus a taverna. Car essential. A huge thank you for the hospitality shown to us all. A very special place....

Andros Oasis

This is one of the most beautiful homes I have ever stayed at. The natural beauty of the sweeping ocean view, sunsets, and swimming pool made this such a wonderful trip. The house itself is a beautiful design, and well laid out for a group with 3 separate apartments in addition to the main house. The house really exceeded our expectations all the way around. We love the sounds of cicadas singing and goats in the background. It is an easy drive to both Batsi and Andros (Chora) and surrounded by one beautiful beach after another. Vana and Pavlos were extremely helpful and warm, greeting us at the ferry when we picked up our rental car, and checking in with us several times to help navigate best restaurants and sites. We hope to return to this beautiful spot soon.

Perfectly designed hideaway from which to enjoy this beautiful Greek island!

Kostas and Vana were impeccable hosts for our two week stay at Etoile De Mer Villa. They took their time showing us all the amenities of the home and made themselves available throughout our stay to answer questions about the house and island. The villa is nicely laid out to provide overall privacy from neighbors, but also each apartment is self-contained. The common areas are beautifully situated to allow for amazing views of the water and sunset. The outdoor grill and dining area made for a very memorable evening with our friends. Everything we needed, from kitchen supplies to pool towels to a stereo from which to play music from our phones, was provided. The washer and dryer was also a much appreciated convenience! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend our vacation and would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful property with stunning views and really helpful owners.

We had a wonderful family holiday at the Etoile de Mer. It is a beautifully decorated property with a stunning view of the Aegean. It has a substantial pool in which it is possible to take proper exercise. The kitchen and plumbing work faultlessly. The villa has three separate living areas, so very suitable for a multi-family holiday, all of which have sea views and private outside areas. The owners Vana and Paulos live nearby and are very welcoming; they really want their guests to enjoy themselves. They are very helpful without being intrusive. We had a wonderful time and hope to return. It is near the local town of Batsi where there is all one needs: a supermarket, bakery, petrol station and lots of good tavernas. Altogether a delight!

Una casa fantastica.

Una casa fantastica. Ogni anno cambiamo isola (e casa). Scegliamo sempre case con piscina molto belle per 8-10 persone. Quest'anno molto probabilmente abbiamo soggiornato nella casa migliore. Piscina e camere molto belle e attrezzate e uno splendido spazio grill con grande tavolo per 12 persone. Tutto fantastico! E molto gentili i padroni di casa Vana e Pavlov.

In one word .... Amazing !!

3 families, 10 people, 5 adults and 5 kinds in a 5* Property !! Etoile de mer is a magical villa. Even the very nice pictures do not represent the beauty of this villa. Incredible view, beautiful rooms and bathrooms,very nice pool and great place for barbecue. Everything is thought for a five star comfort from the pool to the house and service. The owners Vana and Pavlos are very very intentional people . We recommend this property if you want to see..... what the paradise could looks like. Andros is a lovely island with nice beaches. Very cute village ( Batsi ) 10 min from the house . Conclusion ...Splendid holidays and hope to have the opportunity to return soon!! Special thanks to Vana and Pavlos for the hospitality, congratulations for your lovely home and thanks to Kostas for the organisation.

Incredible villa for a restful escape

Etoile De Mer is a beautiful villa with breath taking views, and fantastic facilities. The pool and outdoor spaces are particularly special. The owners have thought of everything you might need and you feel instantly at home. Kostas and the team are incredibly helpful both before and during your stay, going over and above to make sure you have a good stay. They were a pleasure to deal with. Andros is a lovely island with plenty to see and explore, but once you have arrived at this gorgeous villa you probably won't want to leave!

Amazing villa for unforgettable holiday

We (my family and other 2 families with kids of 4-6 years) spend 10 fantastic days at Etoile de Mer villa. It was amazing. The House is large and has many beautiful rooms with a great kitchen with outside barbeque. The house has an amazing sea view and is near to beaches where was great to relax in. The pool is large and has a relaxing area to sunbathe with picturesque surroundings in a large garden. Our hosts, Vana and Pavlos made us feel very very welcome in the house and were very helpful in making our holiday great experience through many precious advices where to go and visit (beaches, restaurants, shops). They were the best hosts ever! We would like to go back to Etoile de Mer villa again in the future. We both recommend it very high! Alessandra and Enrico.

Better than advertised!

This is one of the few times I can honestly say that the overall experience at staying in this beautiful villa exceeded my expectations. Beautiful home and wonderfully decorated throughout. Paulos and Vana, the owners, were extremely courteous and welcoming. The views were breathtaking, the pool was excellent and all the spaces were clean and of high quality. The mattresses were extremely comfortable and the sheets and towels were all clean. Anywhere you chose to sit and relax, whether by the pool, by the bbq area or in the house, if was very relaxing and comfortable. A true holiday villa. Very close to the best beaches and villages on the island. Would definitely recommend this property.

This is how holidays in Cyclades must be...

My family and I ,had the pleasure to be accommodated at Etoile De Mer Villa last July. I really do not know how best to describe our stay: "splendid"? to say the least! Our first reaction when arrived at the villa was just a WOW! But with a better look of the view and the design of the house we were lost for words. Vanna and Pavlos have built a great place not just to spend your holiday but a great place to live and enjoy the summer time....staying at Etoile De Mer villa is peaceful and relaxing! The permisses are build with respect to the local architecture and have all the modern conveniences. A great location also, Andros, whether you want to visit Chora and other villages nearby, or just stay somewhere private without any activity. The view from the villa is just magnificent. Almost from every angle from the house you get the Aegean sea in front of you. There is a beautiful terrace for just sitting there having a glass of wine, an amazing BBQ & dinning area but what we liked most was the big infinity pool; we just coudn't escape from there, we had to spend half of each day every single day of our stay just sitting there tanning or sit inside the pool and enjoy the amazing sea views right from the edge. We are looking forward to visit again Etoile De Mer in 2016. Thank you Vana and Pavlos for the great hospitality!

Sheer Magic

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Etoile De Mer Villa. The magic begins when you arrive with the welcome of the owners and the stunning view. The villa and the views are absolutely breathtaking. The point about the villa is that it's like a being at home. It's got that depth of character and feel which only comes from a property owned by people who use it, love it and take care of it. So staying here feels like being a guest in a friend's home. The light, the air - especially the view! I could go on and on. And I could go back and back. My first thought as I entered the Villa was "Spectacular!" The inviting decor exudes warmth and comfort with majestic views of the sea. Vana and Pavlos were wonderful hosts. The interior decor of the house although beautifully and exquisitely appointed, provided a total feeling of comfort and relaxation. The swimming pool is large and always clean. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated and very tidy. The location of the villa is very close to town but far enough away to feel private. It has a beautiful garden and several different areas on the property can be used to just sit and relax alone or with your family and friends. Whether sitting by the pool or watching the sunset, every moment was pure joy. Our whole group of family and friends curled up by the barbeque place in the evening and enjoyed ample amounts of lovely Greek food and wine. We just couldn't have done better in finding a better place for our holiday. A superb experience all round!
