My name is Christiana, I am an archaeologist living mainly in Athens. Olvio is my family house, one of the oldest houses in the town of Sami, that I renovated with a lot of love and care in 2019. My aim is to warmly welcome my guests and create a cosy and relaxing atmosphere. The furniture, equipment and decoration are selected with extra care to provide you with luxury and comfort. I will be happy to welcome you soon in our special place!
