Hydra gets €400,000 Exception Price Due to Low Population

by Kelsey Edwards • 13 Apr, 2024

The final changes have been confirmed for future GGV applicants. Personally, I don't think Hydra will really benefit as the already low full-time population of the island means that the investment value has been discounted. Given that sellers have already been marketing their real estate for much higher than the threshold, it's not going to make a huge difference.

Luxury Mandraki Beach Resort on Hydra Island Greece

Wonderful Relaxing Afternoon at MBR

by Kelsey Edwards • 05 Jul, 2023

The Mandraki Beach Resort nestled in Mandraki Bay has been a labour of love and perseverance for owners and Hydra residents, Arthur and Janis Fitzwilliam. Much anticipated, after seven years, the resort in all aspects is fully open and for me, it is one of the most relaxing treats on Hydra. I sincerely applaud the results.
