Avis

Natasha and Stelios are great hosts, nothing is too much trouble.
We’d really recommend this apartment for its location and space, great value as a base to explore the island.

Absolutely amazing. Beautiful, well-maintained flat with all the facilities. Best of all, the owners and their family are very, very kind, making our stay unforgettable.

Tip: Kalyves is an authentic, lively village with all that a traveller needs, but without the traps of massive tourism. The beaches are beautiful, not crowded at all, you can reach them walking for 10 minutes or by car (no problem for parking nearby). There are about 10 restaurants, butchers', bakers', hairdressers', rent-a-car offices, a supermarket in Kalyves. Around the village, you can go walking or visit Chania, 25 minutes by bus.

Exceptional 😀 - Beautiful, comfortable apartment. Very well equipped with everything you need. Charming owners. We will definitely return. 😞 - Nothing.

Levantes apartment was our Little piece of heaven during our Road trip to the West part of Crete.
It was extra clean, very well decorated and had everything we needed during our stay.
It was ideally located (next to the beach and restaurants as well as supermarket), but very quiet !
I highly recommand you stay at Stelios's lovely apartment.

Liebe Natasa, liebe Ana,
ihr habt uns so herzlich begrüsst, eure Appartments sind genial. Wir haben uns unglaublich wohl gefühlt. Der kurze Spaziergang zum wunderschönen Strand hat unsere Tage bereichert. Liebevoll habt ihr das Appartment eingerichtet, so dass wir die Tage und die Abende sehr geniessen konnten. Eure persönliche Betreuung - nie war euch eine Frage zuviel - war für uns ein grosser Pluspunkt in unserem Erholungsurlaub. Danke!!!

Thank you so much for a relaxing Holiday in a beautiful Apartment - everything we needed was there plus it was cosy, clean and pretty. The service was warmhearted, professional and supportive.
Stay save, healthy and happy 🙂

The apartments are in a very quiet position tucked into the natural hillside with great sea views. We loved the two terraces for our apartment, with sun in the afternoon (Levantes). The apartment had everything you could want. The access drive is quite narrow and steep but with level parking by the door. 10 min walk either way to 2 beaches and a range of great restaurants. Kalives is a great find! The book of local walks provided was excellent and we enjoyed exploring the local area. Stelios and Natasa were very friendly and helpful. We would go back.

You haven't met Crete like this If you truly want to experience a wonderful part of Crete in a true wonderful style, then you have to visit Avra apartments, located in a place near the main town of Chania, but away from the loud music, high pricing (of the town center) and embraced by the best owners you can't go wrong! Stelios and Natassa are there to help you with everything (hint, they know every single inch of Crete) as true adventurers and full of Greek hospitality they will happily guide you in some of the most lovely yet unknown places in Crete. If you truly want to experience Crete and discover it's heritage and it's beauty then this is the place to be! Hint, ask for a Cretan breakfast....and then for directions to how you should spend the rest of your day, you won't regret it!

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit auf Kreta und haben uns in der Wohnung sehr wohl gefühlt! Natasa hat uns herzlich begrüßt, uns mit Tipps für die Umgebung versorgt und sich zwischendurch nach uns erkundigt.
Besonders gefallen hat uns, dass die Wohnung zwischendurch gereinigt worden ist und uns sogar Strandtücher zu Verfügung gestellt wurden.
Hier wurde an alles Gedacht und wir können uns vorstellen wiederzukommen!

The hosts were very very nice! We had a great time by the sea, with all the help possible!

Super airbnb, ultra confortable et propre. Les propriétaires sont au petit soin, nous sommes venus avec notre fille de moins de 2 ans et il y avait tous les équipements nécessaires (chaise bébé, baignoire, lit parapluie et même les ustensiles pour manger) Stellos a ramené également quelques jeux et et sa femme est venu protéger le balcon. Un ménage est effectué également durant le séjour, on se sent vraiment comme chez soi. La literie est confortable aussi, nous recommandons vivement !

We (3) enjoyed our stay a lot, also because of the beautiful apartment, the interior is modern, cozy and very nice and well-divided for 3-4 persons.
the views are excellent, so is the service (cleaning, warm welcome etc.). the kitchen is also very well-euqipped so no problem to cook and have meals at home.
we stayed in early november and also enjoyed the chimney 😉
Tips for other travellers
it´s an excellent home base for all short & long trips to Crete, especially in the eastern part (eg. Chania, Elafonisi, etc.); many restaurants etc. around, also directly in Kalyves, a nice beach is in walking distance, plus there´s a Almyrida just around the corner.
