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.

5 star ratingFabulous view We stayed at Avra (also known as Breezes) Apts in the top rooms (Siroko). The view was amazing, the bed was the most comfortable I've slept in in Greece, soft pillows, free with fi, air con, satellite TV,combination safe, full size cooker with oven, washing machine, brand name hairdryer and lots of other useful items too numerous to mention. 3 balconies on total.One very large overlooking the sea,one to the side catching the late afternoon sun and a third, smaller, for the washing.Anna the owner, and Natasa, were both very friendly and helpful and couldn't do enough for us.Avra is about 15 mins slow walk to the nearest taverna (Akrigialos) - walk along the sea road,it's safer, and about 20-25 mins stroll to the far end of the village.The good news is, Anna's neighbour is a taxi driver and if you ask her she will organise a lift for you. (5 euros to the far end of the village.No price increase after midnight)The only downside was the fairly steep narrow road to the apartment.

Super ausgestattetes Apartment mit vielen Extras. Küche ist mehr als vollständig, man kann super selbst verpflegen. Schöner Blick aufs Meer von der Terrasse. Fußläufig sind Supermärkte, 2 Strände, Bäcker etc. zu erreichen. Strandutensilien wie Schirme, Matten und Co können kostenlos ausgeliehen werden - super hilfreich!
Stelios und Natasa sind tolle Gastgeber!

Amazing week in Kalyves 😀 - Avra apartments is located in a quiet area between two beaches (10 minutes walk). The apartment was specious, very well equipped with a comfortable bed, 2 air-conditionings (one in bedroom and second in the leaving room), kitchen with lots of devices (coffee machine, toaster, owen etc). When we arrived late in the evening the host was waiting for us with warm welcome, there was mineral water in the fridge, fresh fruits and a bottle of great wine (small things but so nice). The hosts care about the guests so the atmosphere is so nice, I highly recommend Avra aparments and Kalyves town. We are going to come back her for next vacation. 😞 - Nothing to complain, all perfect. Even better than we expected.

Es war richtig schön in den Apartments von Stelios und Natasa. Beide waren extrem freundlich und zuvorkommend, immer gut erreichbar und auch der Ort Kalyves ist super schön, ruhig aber mit tollen Cafés und Restaurant. Der Strand ist fußläufig und wir haben einfach eine echt schöne Zeit dort verbracht. Vielen Dank! Wir kommen gerne wieder.

A lovely relaxing week in a great apartment. 😀 - The hosts Stelios and Natasa were very friendly, helpful and easy to communicate with. They booked taxis for us to and from the airport and recommended good places to eat. The apartment was extremely clean and comfortable with very nice touches such as a coffee machine, fresh coffee, fruit and wine. The apartment was in a nice quiet location about 15 minutes walk to the main beach. There were less busy beaches also about 15 minutes away in the opposite direction. 😞 - Nothing

We found Avra Apartments by accident as they had a free week which coincided with our holiday, the apartments are rarely Liked·location, cleanliness, views, privacy, fully equipped, superb communication with the owners from start to finish.
