Avra House Symi

In the most special spot of the island. In Mouragio, behind the first row of hotels and houses, is the Avra house. The house was a biscuit oven for the island's sailors and its architectural restoration respected its original use in every possible way. Within walking distance of the unique central beach of NOS (10 minutes on foot), 60 steps away from all the necessities of the island: taverns, cafes, bars, supermarkets, port of departure-arrival of ships, is this two-storey traditional house. With its own courtyard, balcony overlooking the sea, windows overlooking the Aegean Sea, Avra House is a property in a quiet traditional neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of the island but very close to everything necessary for a pleasant stay.
