An agricultural stone complex of the late 19th century, renovated to host today’s demanding explorer and harmoniously surrounded by new, equally appealing, stone structures, captures the architectural spirit, the primordial vibes and the enchanting sociability of the island and presents a captivating, hospitable escape, offering discrete, private moments.
Nestled at the fringe of Hora, within walking distance from its central square, The Haystack Residences, a harmonious blend of the traditional and the new, serenely overlook the city, the Monastery and, further in the horizon, the Aegean.
A complete agricultural stone complex of the late 19th century, with its intact “aloni”, the complex was lovingly renovated with great respect to the original and with the addition of three new stone buildings, to form a contemporary high quality accommodation for the discerning traveler.
