The house has a total area of 200sqm and is situated in Trypiti. Trypiti is a traditional, well-preserved settlement, almost united with Plaka, built amphitheatrically on the ruins of the classic city of Klima. Its name originates from its soft volcanic stones that looked as if they were drilled just like many holes that are carved on the rock upon which it is built.
The Church of Saint Nikolaos dominates in the center of the village, whereas in this village unique, scenic windmills are preserved that in old times were used for the grinding of cereals and nowadays most of them have been turned into rooms to let. In Trypiti you can enjoy the panoramic view to the Adamantas bay and also gastronomic dishes at the snack-bars and restaurants of the village. In a nearby distance you can visit the Catacombs and the Ancient Theater even on foot.
Milos is famous for its coastline. With more than 75 small and big beaches of crystal, deep blue waters, multi-colored carved rocks and white-yellow coasts, it is certain that you will be impressed. During your time in the island you should choose the beach for your swim based not only on its natural beauty, but also based on the wind’s direction. During the season of the yearly and the north winds it is best to choose beaches located within the bay, or better yet in the south side of the island. On the contrary, when the wind is south, we recommend you visit the beaches in the north side of the island.
