Nested in the beautiful valley of Vassamia, Spiti Anita offers breathtaking views of the Aegean mountains and sea. Ideally located 5 minutes by car from the port of Gavrion and a 15-20 minute walk from the magnificent bay of Fellos, this is the perfect place for couples looking for a romantic getaway, or small families to adopt as their summer home.
Spiti Anita consists of two adjacent homes, the main Farmhouse – where Anita lives all year round – and the newly renovated , adjacent Cave.
The Cave: Smart luxury, married with Cycladic tradition
The Cave is a beautiful, private annex, fully renovated in the Cycladic tradition of thick whitewashed stone walls, wood beams, Karystos stone floors, and traditional "pattiti". It consists of one master bedroom, one double bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette, with outdoor seating and parking.
The home is built and equipped with everything we ourselves enjoy, marrying the crisp Aegean white and blue, with small luxuries that make our holidays special.
1 Master Bedroom – Sleeps 2 (Queen Bed)
The master bedroom is a large, airy studio, with a built-in large queen bed and sitting area. The design is purposefully minimal to let they eye rest on the beautiful stone and wood finishings. With its breathtaking view, this is the perfect place to relax, enjoy a movie and fall in love.
1 Second Bedroom – Sleeps 2 (Full bed, sleeps two)
If you have children or want to bring along another couple, our second bedroom offers you a large double bed crafted in the same style as the master bedroom. We call this room the Box because of its origin and unique feel. Small, but very cozy, you will love to lie in bed and let your eyes wonder out to the stars and sea.
1 Bathroom - Toilet and large Shower
Our bathroom is spacious and private. Built exclusively with the Cycladic technique of “patiti”, our guests can enjoy the beautiful finishings with a view of the sun setting over the Cavo D’ Oro in the background.
1 Kitchen
Our kitchenette is small, but fully operational. It has a large fridge and stove and is equipped with all the “must haves” for you to prepare any meal. In full harmony with the remaining house, it is beautifully crafted and designed to make your cooking experience special.
1 Bed – not inside bedroom
In the hallway connecting the rooms to the kitchen and bathroom, we also provide a single, pull-out bed. Please note this is not private and is only offered in case it fits your needs.
Air-conditioning
The home is equipped with independent air-conditioning, although you will likely not need it. The thick stone walls and mountain breeze keep the house cool day and night.
About Spiti Anita
It was 1967 when our Singapore born, Scottish educated, English mother came to Andros in search of her paradise. She found it on an old farm house, one kilometer up a donkey track from the magnificent bay of Fellos.
The house had no water, no electricity, no road... no “mod cons” as she would say with a twinkle. Only a beautiful, 18th century Cycladic stone home, framed by a spectacular view of the mountains engulfing the bay.
She called this view her cradle and, to this day, as the skies go orange and the moon ascends on the horizon, she raises a glass to the sun and bids it goodnight.
Her name is Anita and this is her Spiti (home). It is her paradise. It is ours. And it is with great love and pride that we share our experience with the world.
