The island, close by

Ermoupolis is a city made for a daily walk.

Stay in the centre and the things that make an unfamiliar place feel familiar are already nearby.

A local rhythm

Begin with the things you can reach on foot.

The house is in central Ermoupolis, the capital of Syros and the Cyclades. Step out for the bakery, the market, a coffee, dinner by the waterfront or the neoclassical streets that give the town its particular character.

The port is less than three minutes away, which makes arrivals and island departures unusually straightforward. We share an approximate location before booking to protect the privacy of the home.

Outside the high season

Syros has a life beyond summer.

Spring and autumn are a beautiful time to stay longer: the island remains active, while its pace leaves more room to notice the ordinary pleasures of being here.
