Greek Easter Escape: Your Own Mansion in Makrinitsa,Pelion

The traditional guesthouse Sisilianou is located right on the main square of Makrinitsa, one of Pelion’s most picturesque settlements. It is actually a renovated spectacular 17th century mansion of one of the oldest families of the area. It features fantastic guest rooms – all different from the other- with room service and a traditional café bar with a fire place where you can also enjoy drinks – tsipouro!- on its veranda overooking the whole area of Volos and Pagasitikos Gulf.

In Makrinitsa you can find anything you want! As long as you know the right people. And at Archondiko Sicilianou you have them!

An ideal place for yoga aficionados, nature lovers, book lovers, mountain bikers, lazy bums who like to enjoy their coffee in perfect surroundings, couples, families and extremely sophisticated people who appreciate lifes simple luxuries
