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.

Stelios and Natasa were great hosts.
The apartment was easy to find, clean and the whole interior was just as new.
It's perfectly located for travelling to Chania, Rhetymno and lots of other places.
A bakery is just a few meters away and there a lot of options for dining in Kalyves.

Getting in contact with Stelios and Natasa was easy, they responded quickly and they were nice and engaged all the time.

Siamo stati accolti da Natasa, un host da 10 e lode. Si è interessata più volte sull’andamento del nostro soggiorno durante la nostra permanenza. L’appartamento è come in foto ed è tutto curato nei minimi dettagli. Potrete trovare una lavatrice, molto utile soprattutto per soggiorni medio lunghi.
Natasa è stata sempre super disponibile e cordiale, ci ha fatto proprio sentire a casa.
Un altro punto a favore, per nulla scontato è stato la pulizia, il cambio lenzuola e asciugami avvenuto più volte durante i nostri 10 gg di pernottamento.
Vi consigliamo assolutamente di scegliere questi appartamenti se volete godervi una vacanza all’insegna di pace e tranquillità.

Grazie ancora Natasa

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.

Stelios is a great host and the apartment was better than expected. Fully furnished & very suitable for a nice family stay with a baby & a toddler. We spent one week in April in this apartment. The location was ok to access local beaches and do a couple of daily trips in Chania region. We would warmly recommend this place to anyone!

stelios קיבל אותנו בלבביות, חיכו לנו פירות וראקי בחדר.
החדר היה הכי נוח וביתי שהיה לנו כאן בטיול, יש בו כל מה שצריך ויותר!
המקום משופץ ונעים ומרגיש בייתי! והעיירה קטנה ומתוקה, יש חוף במרחק הליכה והרבה מקומות לשבת. גם טברנה של מוזיקה חיה פעמיים בשבוע.
הארכנו את השהות בחדר כי היה מאוד נעים ונהנו מהאיזור.
יש גם מסלולי הליכה יחסית קרובים וזו גם חוויה מעולה, stelios המליץ לנו על כמה.
בהחלט נרצה לחזור למקום!

This was by far my best airbnb experience!

The house is beautiful, spacious, sparkling clean and had all the equipment you can imagine. Every little detail is well thought out to make you feel at home.

Stalios and his wife helped us with everything we needed and were very nice and communicative.

The house is conveniently located in Kalyves, a small village close to Chania and surrounded by many other beautiful locations to visit.

Thank you for everything : )

😀 - Avra Apartments are one of the most beautiful places I have recently had the pleasure to visit. Right after our arrival, we were welcomed in such a way that I immediately felt at home – fresh fruit, cold water in the fridge, as well as Greek wine and a homemade stronger drink were waiting for us. The apartment is located at the top of a steep driveway, but that’s not a problem, because Stelios had no trouble parking my car. He also took care of the children and shared his own kids’ toys with them. Throughout our stay, he kept sending us tips on where to go, what to see, and where to eat. The apartment was equipped with everything we could possibly need, very spacious, and beautifully decorated. Located right in the heart of the village of Kelavies and very close to the beach.

Stelios en zijn vrouw zijn ontzettend aardige mensen. Ze weten veel over de omgeving en hebben ons leuke tips gegeven. We hebben het contact met hen als er prettig ervaren. De Airbnb zat op een prettige plek tussen de lokale bevolking en vlak bij het strand. Binnen het dorp is alles op loopafstand, wat erg handig is. De Airbnb zag er brandschoon uit en alle dingen die je nodig hebt zijn aanwezig. Er waren zelfs parasols die je kon meenemen naar het strand. In de omgeving is ontzettend veel te doen. Wij hebben enorm genoten en raden jullie dit verblijf van harte aan!

We had a perfect family holiday staying at Avra apartments. From the wonderful warm welcome with Anna (at midnight!) to all the advice, tips, and small touches from Stelios and Natasa really made our daughters first holiday even better than we could have hoped it would be! We are all very sad to leave but had the best time!

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.
