Nous avons passé un très bon séjour. Natasa nous a très bien accueilli et est une personne chaleureuse et avenante. L'appartement est très propre et fonctionnel avec un ménage en milieu de semaine. Très bien situé à coté de la mer avec la plage à 600m et le centre ville également. Kalyves est un village paisible et agréable avec tout ce dont on a besoin (boulangerie, boucherie, épicerie...) grand choix de restaurant.
Je recommande vivement et y retournerai prochainement.

Lovely Greek welcome and excellently appointed apartment Stellios, Natasha and their respective parents were so lovely and welcoming. We felt at home from the minute we arrived. We only stayed the one night, but they kindly allowed us to stay on until late afternoon without seeking any extra payment, for which we were very grateful as our flight wasn't until the evening. Apartment was huge, modern, tastefully decorated, superbly appointed inc sattelite TV, and all the kitchen gadgets you need. Also, very efficient and quiet air conditioning, plus a large bathroom with a good shower. The apartment is in a quiet residential side street about 10 mins stroll to the centre of Kalives and same to the nearest sandy beach. Nearest restaurant is 5 mins away. We didn't have much of a sea view from our small terrace (we stayed in Osteria) as we were on ground floor and at rear, but looking at some of the other apartments, the ones on the side and front must have superb views of both mountains and sea.read moreread less

The apartment was spotless with lots of supplies - amazing communication with the host especially after we weren’t sure about our check in times. Was able to also arrange a taxi through Stelios to the airport, which was a major positive.

These guys really know how to run an AirBnb. The place was very cosy and we felt right at home. It had everything and everything was done right. Clean, very tastefully decorated, good internet, two effective A/C units, modern appliances, on-site parking.Even the little village of Kalyves itself was quite lively for the winter season so we didn't feel isolated. Quick access to Chania. One of the best AirBnbs we stayed at and would happily come back.

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!

Excellent help and support from Natasha and Anna.
I recommend Avra apartments.
Tips: Kalyves is a lovely quite village with many lovely attractions, walks and restaurants. For me the best restaurant serving tasty local cuisine it the Icarus which is 15 minute walk from Avra.

Lovely place run by a really nice family 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.
