We live downstairs in the studio apartment. We very much leave the guests to themselves, as we appreciate their privacy. Currently an arrangement will be made about keys and access to the property. We provide an Information Pack which includes everything they need to know about Casa Sophia, and important telephone numbers they might want eg. Doctors and local amenities. We also provide extensive information about walks, sites to see, maps and many others things of interest in the region, with some suggested tours of the local area.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

About the neighbourhood
The Pyrgos / Stoupa area has a diverse countryside, with a rich mix of beaches, harbours, olive groves and villages surrounded by impressive mountains and Mediterranean blue sea. It is an oasis untouched by the current troubles where it seems that time has stood still. Pyrgos goes back to the 1400s and has the most magnificent view of the sea and coast from its perch on a hill top plateaux. The very name Pyrgos; meaning Tower; adds to ones imagination of the views it provides. The local cafe in the square is an ideal place to sit and enjoy the atmosphere of this enchanting village of cobbled alleyways. A must is a drive around the mountain villages behind Pyrgos where lunch or dinner can be enjoyed.
Getting around
The best way to get around this area and to the sites is by car. A car is essential in this area.
