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.

Communication with Natasa was uncomplicated and always quick response to question. She was there when needed, but left enough privacy, which we really appreciated.

The kitchen was very well equipped and there was also a bottle of wine and raki waiting as a welcome gift. There was also a wonderful farewell gift as a memento. Thank you for all this.

Every 4 days the flat was cleaned very clean.

We had a wonderful holiday in the apartment. The place has a few nice restaurants and cafes. Kalives is not as crowded and touristy as other places,
I recommend it. Stelios and his family were very helpful and kind.

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!

Отличные душевные аппартаменты . Отличные апартаменты.Фото соответствует действительности. Душевный прием хозяев. В апартаментах есть все необходимое. ВСЕ! Чай, сахар, таблетки для стир.машинки, тряпка. Посуда, кастрюли, сковородки, чайный сервиз, красивые блюда, бокалы, открывашки и поварешки и прочее. Кофеварка, утюг, фен, стиралка. Матрасы хорошие и подушки. Жили как дома!! За 10 дней уборка и смена полотенец белья 3 раза! Это наши 4 апартаменты в разных странах и мы с мужем решили, что они оказались самыми лучшими. Красота вокруг даже в мелочах. Лампа из ракушек просто чудесна) Наши апартаменты были самыми большими, 3 балкона.Пляж 15 минут пешком, а мы ездили на более дальний в этом же поселке. Супермаркет недалеко.Мы были на машине и в горку к апартаментам поднимались на машине. Пешком было бы тяжеловато.Кондитерская рядом ) Спасибо за чудесный прием, бутылочку вина при заезде и подарочек при отъезде. От души благодарим хозяев!
Great apartment.Photo corresponds to reality. The sincere welcome of the owners. The apartment has everything you need. ALL! Tea, sugar, tablets for the washing.cars, rag. Dishes, pots, pans, tea set, beautiful dishes, glasses, openers and ladles and so on. Coffee maker, iron, hair dryer, washing machine. Mattresses are good and pillows. Lived at home!! For 10 days cleaning and change of towels 3 times! This is our 4 apartments in different countries and my husband and I decided that they were the best. The beauty around you even in small things. The seashell lamp is just wonderful) Our apartment was the biggest, 3 balconies.The beach is 15 minutes walk, and we went to a further in the same village. A supermarket close by.We were by car and up the hill to the apartment went up by car. Walking would be hard.Confectionery nearby ) Thank you for the wonderful reception, a bottle of wine on arrival and a gift on departure. We sincerely thank the hosts!
все понравилось. Жили как дома. в Одну сторону 40 минут Ретимно, в другую 30 минут Ханья)
one way 40 minutes of Rethymno, the other 30 minutes of Chania)
I liked it. Lived as homes.

5 star ratingOne of the Best in Greece We have just returned from our second visit to the Avra Apartments. Our heartfelt thanks go to Natasa, Stelios and Anna – our lovely hosts who have become our dear friends. We stayed in the Levantes Studio which is absolutely beautiful. It is equipped with everything you could need for a self-catering holiday – plenty of pots and pans, cutlery and nice crockery. There are lovely imaginative touches as Natasa is very artistic.

When we arrived Natasa had left a bottle of wine and rakki, together with a bowl of fruit for us. A coffee machine was also supplied together with a sandwich toaster and also washing up liquid, dishcloth, mosquito machine, a roll of paper towels and washing powder. We had a comfortable king-size bed with duvet and air con was included in the price. We had a large terrace overlooking Souda Bay with table, chairs, bench and large umbrella. Down a few steps was another patio area with a bench. The bathroom was also beautiful having been recently updated with luxurious fittings. Lovely white towels were supplied which were changed every two days and if you forget your beach towels, Natasa will supply them free of charge.

I could go on and on extolling the virtues of the Avra but the review would be too long. Thank you again Natasa, Stelios and Anna we love you guys!!!

From the moment you step in you feel most welcomed as you will discover fresh fruits on the table, and cold water and raki in the refrigerator 🙂 ||This comfortable, clean and cozy place is ideal for a family. Stelios and Natasa, the owners, are always happy to help you with tips and recommendations for things to do in Crete. It's always a pleasure to stay at Avra. We'll be back soon!

Wizyta sierpień 2021. Super czysto, co 4 dni było sprzątane, wymieniane prześcieradła i ręczniki. Właściciele przemili. Żadnych ukrytych opłat. Klimatyzacja w cenie. Dałbym 6 gwiazdek, ponieważ po raz pierwszy spotkaliśmy się z tak ciepłym przyjęciem i mega czystym apartamentem. Poza tym wszędzie blisko i cicho, tylko te cykady.... Styczeń 2022 Dostaliśmy kartkę świąteczną, jesteśmy w szoku. Tyle już podróżujemy i po raz pierwszy się z tym spotkaliśmy. Bardzo miły gest.
