Avis

Très bel appartement, fonctionnel et joliment décoré. Stelios. Anastasa et Anna sont des hôtes très accueillants et tout à l’écoute en restants discrets. Point de chute idéal pour visiter l’ouest de la Crête. Nous recommandons vivement!

100 % Empfehlung von uns!Sehr netter, hilfreicher Kontakt (Vielen Dank an Natasa!)Schön dekoriertes Apartment „Levantes“,ausgestattet mit Kochstelle und Herd, Fön, Bügeleisen und allem anderen, was man für einen Aufenthalt benötigt.Supermarkt und Strand fussläufig zu erreichen, Restaurants und weitere Geschäfte ebenfalls in unmittelbarer Umgebung.Guter Ausgangspunkt, um West-Kreta zu erkunden. (Chania, Balos, Elafonissi usw.)

Very happy As others have said, everyone at Avra Apartments is very helpful with nothing we asked for too much trouble. On arrival, Levantes seemed smaller than I imagined from the pictures but it did not feel cramped at all for the two of us for a week. The location was ideal with everything in easy walking distance but also out of the centre enough to be peaceful. The hillside behind was full of spring flowers and happy birds so we could sit enjoying this, as well as the sea views and distant hills.

We had a very enjoyable time at Avra apartment, sitting on the balcony having breakfast looking at the fabulous views th 😀 - Everything was perfect with fabulous views,very clean and comfortable.Stelious was a perfect host explaining everything we needed to know about the apartment and about the local area. 😞 - Nothing

The place was so beautiful and clean. The sea view was amazing. The entire house smelled so nice and had a very good style which I loved. It is spacious and cozy. The area was perfect for me. Peaceful but not boring. The way up to the house was a little steep but for me it was added to the character of it. Natasha is incredibly nice and communicative. The balconies were so cute and comfortable. It really was perfect.

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!

Το καλύτερο καλωσόρισμα με ρακές, ρακόμελα και θέα στη θάλασσα! Ευρύχωρα, πεντακάθαρα δωμάτια με προσεγμένη διακόσμηση που δένει αρμονικά με το κρητικό τοπίο και την ανεμελιά των διακοπών, προσφέροντας ταυτόχρονα τις ανέσεις και τη βολή που βρίσκεις μόνο στο σπίτι σου. Ζεστοί άνθρωποι, αυθεντικά χαμόγελα και η κρητική φιλοξενία στα καλύτερά της! 5 αστέρια ανεπιφύλακτα, συν άλλο ένα για τις "λεπτομέρειες" που επιμένετε, κάνοντας τη διαφορά! Θα ξαναρθούμε το συντομότερο! 🙂

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Natasa et Stelios, ils ont été adorables avec nous et ont tout fait pour que nous passions un excellent séjour. L’appartement est très bien situé, les plages, supermarchés et restaurants sont accessibles à pieds. L’appartement est très beau et très fonctionnel. Nous recommandons cet appartement

All I can say is just perfect. Perfect room, perfect view, perfect hospitality. Everything you need is well thought and the room is fully equipped, including washing machine, hair dryer, shampoos, towels(for beach too), coffee machine, toaster, kettle, good fridge, olive oil, pan, etc. But as a person who cares about hygiene a lot what really made me love this place is that they didn’t put those decorative blankets and pillows in top of the bed like any other hotels/Airbnbs. No marks in the sheets nor in the towels. Everywhere in the room felt so clean. I stayed in Levantes room for 7 nights and had such a blast in the morning with the view while drinking my coffee. Balcony set up was also super cozy. Bed was very comfortable. There are really countless of things that I consider perfect. In some hotels or airbnbs there are no space for your makeup products, no proper place to hang your towels, put your clothes. But I got a lot of space for my stuff, I had three mirrors in the room which was very convenient also. Cute cretan cats were visiting our balcony once in a while which was also a big plus for me to have them around. I felt like we were in the nature with sea view but in a luxury condition. We were able to park our car just right in front of our front door as well which made also very easy for us to pack beach bags easily without carrying heavy things to the car. Car was just one step close to us. The owner couple was so sweet. When we encountered them, they kept asking if we need anything, if everything was good, it was obvious that they wanted to make sure we feel like home which we did. About the location, Kalyves was not beautiful as chania or rethymno but quiet and nice. Just a seaside village so dont expect too much from the village. There were two beaches nearby around 10 mins each but we always went to turquoise water beaches located in the west and south of crete but this was our preference. And since kalyves is located in between rethymno and chania we were able to visit both towns for dinner easily. Overall, it was such an amazing stay. This place increased the expectation so high that I am not sure if I’ll ever like other airbnbs as much as I liked this apartment. This level of cleanliness, good equipment and relax stay cannot even be found in five star all inclusive hotels sometimes. Amazing.

We stayed in these apartments with my mum and aunt. We had the 2 bedroom (2 + 2 kids) plus the 2 studios.||We had a fantastic time and Stellios and Natasa and all the family made us feel very welcome. The apartments were spacious and well equipped and the view especially from the 2 bed was fab. Great place to have breakfast. ||Stelios was very kind in lending us an extra buggy for the 15 min walk to the further beach! It's a nice place for families and couples.

Ana était notre hôte, nous l’avons très appréciée! Elle s’est très bien occupée de nous, était attentive à nos demandes. Le village est vraiment sympathique, un grand choix de restauration à prix abordables, et tout se fait à pieds! La plage se fait également à pieds. Il ne manquait d’absolument rien dans ce logement, à recommander 100%!

Stelios was a wonderful host! The apartment looks newly renovated (or even just built)! Stelios was kind enough to leave us some fruits, water and bread. The kitchen is perfect to make meals! The apartment is located in Kalyves, which is a more family friendly area. The beach is a short walk away. I highly recommend Kritiko (restaurant near the center of Kalyves), the food was amazing!
Stelios was very helpful when we had any questions and he helped us arrange a taxi for our midnight flight arrival. Our driver was even kind enough to drop off our bags at the apartment and then take us to look for food past midnight! My boyfriend loved the gyros from simon's (fast food joint).

Chania is a short 20 mins drive. And the beautiful beach, Elafonassi is around 1.5hrs away.
Thank you for the wonderful stay, Stelios!
