Testimonials

“We came on the 14th of August with my mother who is 82. Maria carried our suitcases up the stairs herself and Despina sat with us in the courtyard while we waited for the room to be aired. The bed was firm and the silence at 4 a.m. was complete. Three minutes to the gate, exactly as written.”
Father Anastasios Karageorgiou

“I have stayed in many guesthouses on Tinos over thirty years and TinosGrace is the only one where the chapel is open at 3 a.m. without asking. The oil lamp burns continuously. Father Nektarios heard my confession in the morning. A blessed house.”
Sofia Drakopoulou

“I travelled alone for the first time after my husband Yiannis fell asleep in the Lord. The Cypress Room was perfect — the cypress outside the window, the icon corner with a small lamp Despina had lit before I arrived. I cried and slept. Thank you, Vlachou family.”
Nikolas Petridis
Thessaloniki
“Came with my wife and two children. The Pilgrim Family Room is honest — not large but well organised, and the door between the two halves means the children sleep without disturbing us. Maria's tsoureki at breakfast is the kind my grandmother used to make.”
