Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is a fabulous little apartment complex in a superb location – a couple of minutes after locking the door you can be in the sea, or sat waiting for some cheap & tasty fresh Greek cuisine from the restaurant downstairs. The apartment is very clean & well furnished (with everything except a tv, unusually) & everything seems very new. The air conditioning is great & very welcome! The people are really welcoming, helpful & very friendly. I spent a very happy week here & would definitely book again in the future!

L’accueil du propriétaire était chaleureux,le site était pittoresque au bord de la mer. Nous avons apprécié la situation géographique bien que l’accès par route n’était pas évident.Le stationnement à proximité de l’hôtel était facile. La nourriture du restaurant de l’hôtel était excellente, quelle belle hospitalité ! Nous y retournerons sans hésitation. Anne-Marie et Alain

Supertolle Lage direkt am Meer! Wir konnten bis spätmorgens ausschlafen und hatten wirklich unsere Ruhe! Unser Balkon hatte fast bis mittags noch Schatten, was sehr angenehm war. Auf dem Balkon sitzen, das selbstgemachte Müsli essen, den griechischen Kaffee vom Restaurant geniessen und auf das Meer hinausblicken, was will man noch mehr?
