Hotel Atlantis - Agios Konstantinos, Samos Island, Greece

This is another one to add to our growing list of favorite places. Again, made one of our favorites because of the hospitality and genuine welcoming nature of the owners. Gabi (a native German) and Dimitri (Greek) made our stay, along with GG’s, a really special one. Gabi, as we came to know, is the person that everyone on Samos thinks of first when an animal is in trouble. When we arrived she was bottle feeding three 8 day old kittens, caring for 10 chickens, 2 horses, a few other animals and all of her guests. The remarkable thing was that she immediately made our kids feel right at home as they pitched in to help.

We were only going to stay a few nights, but because we loved Samos, all of the hiking and Gabi and Dimitri’s place we stayed on a few more nights.

WGGSH? - She did and really liked it.

WWSHA? - Yes, no question. We would love to go back.
