SeaMe House, one of the most photographed houses in Symi, is located right on the waterside of “Gialos” in Kato Harani Area. Arriving at the harbor which is surrounded by beautiful hills you may see the house laying in front of you amongst magical layers of background colors and contrasts. Small fishing boats tied on the stone paved deck right in front of it, finish up this spectacular “painting” picture.
The space
Symi is known for its outstanding architecture and this house built in 1899 is no exception to it. SeaMe II is the upper part of SeaMe, our two-story house – you may check our entire listing SeaMe I & II. It has its own private entrance one flight up the street level. It is a beautifully renovated autonomous house, combining the local cozy traditional style, yet providing all modern amenities for an unforgettable stay. Relaxing on the house’s balcony, guests can enjoy the most amazing views of the picturesque Symi island, the sailing of boats, yachts and ferries from and to the Gialos port or have a swim in the blue water right in front.
SeaMe II is divided internally into two levels. Entering the back yard on its ground level there is an external but adjacent to the main house guestroom. It has two single beds that may be turned into one king size bed. The guest room has a separate exterior bathroom right next to it, located in the same beautiful back yard. In the main house there is a colorful living room, kitchen and a dining area. On the upper level there are two very cozy wooden double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. The upper house can comfortably accommodate 6 guests.
SeaMe II house is decorated with a local touch of furniture and textiles and the Symian style ‘Musandra’ bedrooms providing a unique experience of the traditional living style.
Guest access
The property’s convenient location in the so called ‘Harani’ area provides easy access to the main tourist attractions such as the market, museums, restaurants, cafes, shops and bars. ‘Kali Strata’, the old stone staircase that links the ‘Gialos’ (port area) with the upper town called ’Horio’ offers breathtaking views of the island and can be easily reached from the property within a 5-10 minutes walking distance. Also, boat transfers to various beaches are a few minutes away on foot.
Other things to note
You may get to Symi in two ways -either by flying to Rhodes or to Kos island - 50 min flight. From there on, you have to get a speedboat that will take you here in 1 or 1,5 hours respectively. Both options are fine, it is only a matter of choice as to how long will be the waiting time on connection (to the speedboats) in each case. The speedboat will drop you off at "Roloi" area which is only a few meters away from the house (160 m).
A third choice is to board on the bigger boats departing from Pireaus Port and arrive directly in Symi the next day. The drop off point for these boats is the at the other side of the harbor around 1,6 kilometers from our house.
