Located in the center of Melidoni, the typical Greek restaurant "Carob n' Olive" delights its guests with excellent Greek cuisine, lovingly served coffee, and a charming, wonderfully kitschy, yet lovingly arranged ambiance 🥰🇬🇷 No matter which direction you enter the village, you'll pass by it. The lady of the house is a true ray of sunshine and makes every guest feel warmly welcomed. Always worth a visit 🙏😎

Beautiful little church above the harbor and surrounded by many palm trees...it could easily look like this in the Caribbean.
