It was more by chance than design that we, Helga and Dimitri Joanidopoulos, ended up in Ikaria while island hopping in 1988. While exploring the island by moped, we discovered a plot of land directly above the sea, with a small house and large terrace, and a small hand-painted sign saying \u2018for sale\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n
The magnificent location with the endless sea view and the flowering oleander bushes around the house completely enchanted us. It was love at first sight!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
In the course of the 1990s, we initially expanded Villa Dimitri from 2 residential levels to a total of 6 levels with 6 holiday flats and gradually acquired the surrounding land. From 2010 to 2015, we built Villa Andromeda with 4 flats on 3 levels.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
\n

In recent years, we have renovated all the flats at Villa Dimitri and fitted them with new kitchens and bathrooms.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Das steil abfallende Gel\u00e4nde mit dornigen B\u00fcschen wurde in m\u00fchevoller Arbeit zu einem bl\u00fchenden Terrassengarten umgestaltet, in dem wir eigenen Wein, Oliven und Gem\u00fcse anbauen.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dimitri has channelled his 30 years of experience as a design engineer at BMW into the architecture and design and is the \u2018creator and maker\u2019 of the buildings, terraces and gardens.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Helga is responsible for all business matters at Villa Dimitri and ensures that everything runs smoothly. In addition to organising and coordinating the lettings, she also takes care of the interior design and furnishings as well as the maintenance and care of the flats.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

We are infinitely grateful to have realised our lifelong dream on this magnificent island with its wonderful nature.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the meantime, at over 80, we are slowly approaching retirement age and are delighted that our daughter Karin has been actively supporting us every summer for several years and keeping us company with her dog Franzi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
