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.

5 star ratingAnother Wonderful Week at the Avra We have just returned from our third visit to the Avra Apartments and had a wonderful time with the amazing owners Natasa and Stelios. Their welcome and hospitality is second to none and they really made as feel part of their family.

I have posted two previous reviews on the Avra so they can be accessed for further information on the Apartments. Suffice it to say they are absolutely beautiful and come highly recommended in every way. We slept wonderfully in the very comfortable king size bed and all the equipment, furniture and fittings are of a very high standard indeed – attention to detail is amazing and the lovely artistic touches give the warmth and comfort of one’s own home. The outlook from our terrace is stunning with a lovely view across Souda Bay.

If there were more stars to award this property then I would indeed give it far more than five!!! Thank you again Natasa and Stelios – we hope to see you again next year.

Erg aan te raden Airbnb! Zeer vriendelijke hosts en een mooi appartement. We waren positief verrast. Er zat zelfs schoonmaak, nieuw beddengoed en badlakens bij in. Ook ligt het appartement op een mooie locatie waar van alles te doen is in de buurt en op loopafstand van 2 zandstranden.

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.

Die Wohnung war perfekt. Es war alles liebevoll eingerichtet und sehr sauber. Man kam an und fühlte sich sofort wie zu Hause. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Es gab frisches Obst und Schnaps zur Begrüßung. Natasa hat uns alles gezeigt und erklärt. Strandhandtücher gab es obendrauf. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und kommen gern wieder.

We had an amazing stay at Avra apartments! Everything was perfect, the warm welcome, the cosy feel of the apartment. Everything was really well thought out, and there were lots of little touches that made it extra special. The hosts were so friendly, kind and helpful, making us feel really welcome. It was beautifully clean, and in the perfect location in Kalyves. Thank you for everything!

Tips for other travellers:
There are so many amazing walks in the area, it’s great to explore on foot or with the local bus service we especially loved walking to Douliana and having lunch overlooking the white mountains. Beautiful quiet beaches near to the Synka supermarket. Cactus is great for cocktails! You always get a warm welcome at Stella’s bar. There are some great Tavernas in Kalyves. Koumos is a must see!
