Avis

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.

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.

We had a very pleasant stay with our 4 month old baby. The hosts where very accommodating and overall the apartment is well equipped. Location wise its super close to nice beaches and to the lovely villages around Vamos. Also Chania is easily reachable by car. All in all very recommended. Only downside were the sheets, but its typical for greece. I guess we are spoiled with our egyption cotton/satin fitted sheets🤣

Stelios was very kind and helpful host. He provided us information about good restaurants, beaches and other places we were interested in. Cleaning the apartment and changing the towels and bed linen during our stay was very nice service. All in all, the apartment was in a really good condition with beautiful interior design. Extended check-out due our late flight was extremely good service, which we appreciated a lot. We highly recommend Stelios´ apartments for those who appreciate good service, privacy and the atmosphere of a small village.

Nous recherchions un logement tranquille et comfortable pour un séjour de vélo et ce logement était parfait pour ça.
La communication avec Stelios était facile, le logement très bien équipé et fonctionnel.
A 20 minutes de route de Chania, plusieurs belles routes pour le vélo, près de la mer et des montagnes.
Excellente expérience

We spent one week on Crete but we were sad that we spent only one night in Avra apartments. Everything was really the best! We can only recommend!

Tip: Kalyves is small but nice city with the best accommodation in Crete - Avra apartments. Everything was absolutelly super. And people who take care about this apartment are also super! They recommend us also good restaurants. One was really super, Provlita tavern! Very nice and very good meals!

Le logement est parfait, très bien équipé, au calme. Jolies vues depuis les trois balcons !
Kalyves est l’idéal pour séjourner en Crète, village animé et préservé de l’afflux de touristes. La plage est très agréable, vous y serez bien !

Very nice place, perfect for day trips around everywhere on the Island. Lots to do nearby.
Very nice and friendly hosts.
I hope we can come back later🙂

Εξυπηρετικά τα παιδιά. Όμορφος και εξοπλισμένος χώρος. Ησυχία με όλα όσα μπορεί να χρειαστεί κάποιος για μια η και περισσότερες μέρες διακοπών. Ευχαριστουμε πολύ.

Stelios was an excellent host. Very responsive and helpful, particularly in my situation as I missed my flight and arrived very late. He was extremely accommodating. The apartment was exactly as pictured and described. Great air conditioning above the bed and excellent wifi strength. I used the washing machine which was very helpful. Glad I had a smaller car rental (MB A-Class hatchback) which made parking very easy. I would easily pick this apartment again. Good central place for my stay on Crete.

A very good location for those who want to be near/in the village Kalyves, and those who prioritise a location without noise during nighttime. The apartment was found to be very clean, and with very good and friendly support from the hosts.
Visiting the place in April is probably a ballot with regards to weather, which we knew in advance. And a tip; There is a bakery close to the apartment, and the standard phrase from the bakery staff whenever we went in there and asked for croissants was: "Maybe tomorrow". So just be prepared. (but they have a lot of other good stuff!

Fabulous stay at Stelios & Natasa’s! They were both very kind and helpful. There were plenty of great restaurants within walking distance. We also loved the balcony in the apartment. We would certainly recommend this Airbnb to anyone staying in Kalyves!
