Unser Aufenthalt in den Avra Apartments war traumhaft und erholsam. Nataša ist eine sehr sympathische und zugewandte Gastgeberin. Sie half uns mit hilfreichen Tipps für die Umgebung und darüber hinaus. Kalyves ist ein entspannter Ort mit hübschen Stränden und schöner Natur für Unternehmungen im Hinterland. Die Wohnung ist in einem Top-Zustand. Sehr sauber, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und es fehlt wirklich an nichts! Man hat auch einen schönen Blick von der Terrasse aufs Meer. Das alles hat unsere Zeit dort perfekt gemacht und wir wären gerne länger geblieben. Bis zum nächsten Mal!

5 star ratingWhat a fabulous place to stay! The accommodation is modern and clean with excellent cooking facilities. There's lots of space with a separate lounge and dining area. We stayed in the Ostria apartment which is towards the back of the complex but it had a cosy seating area with side sea views. The hosts Natasa and Anna were so helpful and kind. Many nice touches here such as the provision of honey raki and nuts on arrival. The walk up to the apartment is a little steep towards the end but you get used to it.

The apartment is about 10 minutes walk from the centre of Kalyves which is a working Cretan town with a good range of small shops, a couple of bakeries and a few mini markets. The bus service from Chania is reliable and fairly regular. There's lots of decent places to eat.

There's a good supply of guide books provided with local walks. Don't miss out on visiting Vamos, Gavalohori and Koumos. The first two can be reached by bus from Kalyves and the latter is a simple walk away.

Stelios apartment was quite spacious both inside as also outside. It is also well equipped and has all the necessary facilities.

It's located in a nice location (Kalives) very close to Chania city but also to many beaches and other places of interest.

Stelios as host was very kind and responsive, gave clear instructions on how to get in and out of his apartment.

The apartment was really nice and cosy. with all the amenities you want, need and more. Stelios and Natasa have really made us feel very relaxed and welcomed when meeting up for the keys. The apartment was to a high level of cleanliness. lovely modern rooms . a very comfy living room. we was walked through how to use everything in the apartment which made us feel right at home. Natasa also helped me with some questions of the local area.

I hope to book again very soon.
Thank you both for such a lovely stay

דירה מדהימה!! 😀 - דירה מדהימה!! הדירה נקייה מאוד, מאובזרת ברמה גבוהה, יש בה כל מה שצריך בדגש על המטבח, חשוב לציין שמאוד נוח לבשל במטבח. אנחנו לקחנו את הדירה הגדולה (2 חדרי רחצה, 2 חדרי שינה, סלון מטבח ושתי מרפסות). המרפסת בסלון זה מרכז העיניינים של הדירה, הנוף של הים פשוט מהפנט, העברנו שם את כל היום. בעלי הדירה מקסימים, זמינים בכל רגע ועוזרים תמיד מכל הלב. מרכז הכפר קרוב מרחק הליכה, הסופר הגדול 8 דקות הליכה (יש גם מינימרקט קטן ומאפייה קרובה ממש).

Just got back from a 3 night stay at Avra apartment and wished we’d booked longer. Have to say the place is finished to a very high standard, very modern and spotlessly clean. Very comfortable place to stay, the apartment has everything you need for a much longer stay. The location is ideal with tavernas and beaches only a short walk. Fantastic view of the see from our balcony.
Hope to be back soon!
