Cloud House on Nisyros Island

Cloud House is in the mountain village of Emporios, with views into the semi-active volcano on one side and the Eastern Aegean Sea on the other. It's the ideal base for a network of rustic hiking trails and paths offering breathtaking views in all directions, leading in and around the volcano, passing natural thermal baths as well as many of the churches of the island of which there are over 100. This is an encounter with sci-fiesque landscapes and an experience that spans the ages. The space We’re making our home available to guests who want to experience Greece as it was in the 1970s. The Dodecanese island of Nisyros, a mountainous island set on a semi-active volcano, remains untouched by tourism and is suited to travelers who have the inclination to go off the beaten path. The volcano has created a microclimate where the house is cool in the Summer and warm in the Winter. The upstairs sleeps five, with one double bed, one double pull out sofa, a single chaise longue and another single bed. There are two private balconies and a dedicated workspace with reliable Wi-Fi. The ample bathroom is heated by a geothermal shaft and the kitchen was recently re-done to include all modern amenities. Yet both bathroom and kitchen still have their traditional working fireplaces for cooler days. Cloud House is easy to access, 32 steps up from the small village parking, where a natural sauna heated by the volcano leads the way. Two of the finest tavernas in the Dodecanese are only steps away in the village square. Also very close to a trendy café/drinks space with a stunning 180 degree view over the neighbouring islands and the Turkish Anatolian coast. Mandraki village has one of the finest fish restaurants in the Dodecanese, Gevsea, but would need to be booked well ahead of time. Emporios is an archaeological gem full of ruins that has been undergoing a revival as traditional houses are being restored by contemporary architects, artists and designers. The original Nisyrian charm still permeates the village with wild goats walking the stone streets and church bells ringing. Cloud House is a boat ride away from Kefalos, a popular kite-surfing/windsurfing destination, and two boat-rides away from Bodrum, bringing within driving distance of Ephesus, Miletus, Marmaris and Antalya. Guest access Please note that there is a large double bed (good for couples), a single bed and a large single. The best arrangement is one person per room, but if you wish to share the double bed, that is possible too. Registration Details 00003510460
