Exceptional Comfortable apartment.very well equipped. Good mattress and pillows. Owned by lovely helpful family. Kalyves is a low key resort with good beaches and excellent tavernas and country walks along quiet roads and tracks.
Only small negative. On a short steepish hill. No problem if you are reasonably fit.

Stelios is a great host and the apartment was better than expected. Fully furnished & very suitable for a nice family stay with a baby & a toddler. We spent one week in April in this apartment. The location was ok to access local beaches and do a couple of daily trips in Chania region. We would warmly recommend this place to anyone!

Vielen Dank für alles, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt in dem sehr liebevoll und gut eingerichteten Appartment in ruhiger Umgebung. Wir freuten uns sehr über die Grundausstattung und vor allem über das frische Obst. Auf der Terrasse genossen wir die schöne Aussicht aufs Meer. Stelios hat uns viele Tipps für Aktivitäten und Restaurants gegeben.

A lovely apartment and location. Newly remodeled, the apartment was very nicely furnished and appointed. We began each morning with coffee and a great view of the sea. Our hosts were attentive and very friendly. Restaurants, butchers and grocers all an easy walk away. Receives my highest recommendation!

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

Stelios Apartment is great as starting point to experience the western part of Crete! A rental car helps to get around Chania area.
Stelios is a great host and the communication was very good!

Adorable place, adorable owners <3 The apartment is huge, clean, well equipped and really very cozy. The view of the sea is fascinating from the terrace and one of the bedroom either.
We were in contact with Natasa during our stay, who is an angel. Helped us in case any questions, added many proposals for trips with a child. Our 4 years daughter also loved the place, the sea, the food, the planty of programs. We spent here our Top 1 summer holiday. Thank you very much for everything!!! Highly recommended!

We had a perfect stay in « Levantes » ! The beach, grocery stores and restaurants are few minutes by walking. Stelios and his family are welcoming. Tips for travelers: Rent a small car, it will be easier to park it.

Highly recommend!! We came to Kalyves for some rest and relaxation and our stay at Avra apartments exceeded this expectation. The apartment was very clean, stocked with all the essentials plus some, and the terrace was the perfect place to start every day - we even arrived to some welcome gifts. Stelios was incredibly accommodating and responsive, quickly providing us with additional amenities, such as beach towels. Chania and its surrounding areas were amazing, but this accommodation really made it feel like home away from home. The whole trip was perfect thanks to Stelios’ help! Avra apartments exceeded our expectations in every way! Hope to come back soon!
