We would certainly come back here again! Everything is exactly as described and the apartment was even nicer than the photos. Both hosts were incredibly nice, caring and paid attention to detail. A wonderful welcome basket was waiting when we arrived.

The location is near perfect, we went to a new restaurant every single day, amazing prices, architecture and beaches. Feels incredibly safe. Thank you Stelios!

Stelio’s and his family were extremely attentive during our stay. The apartment was in a fantastic location, with walking distance to a beach, numerous restaurants and the super market. The apartment was clean and felt extremely safe. We were kindly gifted with a bottle of wine, some local treats, and coffee and tea etc. towels were supplied for our stay, and beach towels generously made available on request. The property is located next door to a taxi company which was super useful for our stay and on our request Stelios arranged for them to collect us from the airport on our arrival! All in all a fantastic stay, with hosts that went above and beyond to make us comfortable and happy during our stay.

This is a beautiful gem of a property in a well-appointed and cared for group of apartments. Right from the moment we were welcomed in person by the host, we knew that this place was special. Loads of attention to detail, from its seaside themed ambiance to its well-appointment kitchen, this place is definitely a home-from-home! With its west-facing patio, comfortable bed and a gorgeous bathroom, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more lovely place to stay. We can't recommend this accommodation more highly!

The AVRA apartment is one of the best Airbnb we have ever stayed. The hosts are friendly and welcoming. Great ocean view from the kitchen and balcony. Fully equipped kitchen. Walking distance to beaches, supermarket and restaurant. We wish we could stay longer.

Lovely family, Stelios & Natasa are lovely hosts as is Anna. They go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to people. Room's were clean and well equipped with free WiFi. A welcoming gift of fresh fruit and Raki on the dining table when we arrived.

Tips for other travellers: Lots of parking on the beach road at busy times. Plenty of supermarket's if you wish to self cater or large choice of tavernas and coffee bars. Very near to the beach.

We stayed there for 10 days and everything was wonderful. Natasa was very friendly and kind and helped us with every question we had. The Beach was super close by and also the supermarket was not too far away! All in all we enjoyed the stay a lot and are looking forward to coming back one day. Thank you for everything! <3

Wir hatten hier unsere Flitterwochen verbracht, und es war wunderbar.

Überaus freundliche und großzügige Vermieterin! 2x in der Woche wurde unsere Ferienwohnung gereinigt, was ich nicht für selbstverständlich halte. Sie hatte sich nie aufgedrängt und unsere Privatsphäre überhaupt nicht gestört, war aber über WhatsApp immer ansprechbar, falls nötig.

Die Lage war ideal. Wenn man draußen auf der Terrasse frühstücken wollte, hatte man einen direkten Blick aufs Meer.
Der Weg zum Supermarkt war mit dem Auto keine 5 Minuten entfernt, und war auch sehr gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Trotz Nähe zur Stadt war man durch einige Häuserreihen vor der Ferienwohnung gut genug abgeschottet vom Treiben und Lärm, wobei der schöne Blick aufs Meer durch die obere Hanglage des Hauses einem nicht versagt blieb!
Ideal gelegen für viele Ausflugsziele, von ganz im Westen der Insel (Elafonisi ca 1,5h mit dem Auto) bis Mitte ganz im Süden der Insel (Preveli ca 1h mit dem Auto) und sehr viele andere schöne Strände und Wandermöglichkeiten dazwischen ☺️

Die Ferienwohnung würden wir auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!!

My wife and I stayed at Stelio's place for a week in April and really enjoyed our time there. The apartment was comfortable and well equiped, the shower was excellent.
The outside space was great, with a nice sea view - we spent a fair bit of time there.
The beach and several shops and restaurants are within walking distance.
Stelios and Nastasa were always on hand and gave us some local recommendations.
Aside from the beach the countryside in the surrounding area is beautiful, ideal for walking with so many lovely views. We would happily stay here again when we are next back in Kalyves

这是一次极其棒的住宿体验,房东真的细心体贴,让我们四天的住宿格外舒适。房间让我觉得在家一样,床单被褥洗衣机,厨具调料应有尽有,去海边帮我们准备了浴巾和太阳伞,入住第一天给我们准备了每人一份的水果,清理房间帮我们准备了自己做的希腊小点心,今天风大气温低留了字条告诉我们热水可能不足要当心,房间有空调 洗衣机 每个房间有独立的wifi 如果再次旅行,我还会选择这里。||Une expérience excellente à cet appartement. Nous avons passé 4 jours tres confortable comme chez nous. L appartement est très bien équipé dans la cuisine et la salle d'eau. Un panier de bienvenu à été préparé dès l'arrivé avec des fruits de saison. Elles nous préparent également chaque jour des petites surprises avant la rentrée, des biscuits maison, des conseils pour lendemain... Le wifi est individuel par appartement et la vitesse est très bonne.||La décoration est moderne et "artiste", pleins d articles faites à la main.||Nous y séjournerons sûrement une prochaine fois...
