Fantastische locatie
Pros:

Manolis en Maria zijn zeer lief en gastvrij! Alles was super schoon en netjes! Ruime kamers met fijne bedden! De ligging is perfect aan het strand en dorpje met heel veel leuke restaurants waar je heerlijk kunt eten!

Stanza a due passi dalla spiaggia
Pros:

La posizione è eccellente poiché è direttamente sulla spiaggia. Si può uscire la mattina presto per prenotare l'ombrellone e poi rientrare in stanza.
Prima di entrare in casa c'è un doccino per lavare i piedi e non portare sabbia in casa.
Ogni stanza ha un tavolino all'aperto e un piccolo stendi panni dedicato.

Cons:

La colazione è poco assortita. Purtroppo nella doccia non è presente il box, c'è solo la tenda e si bagna tutto intorno.

Fantastische kamer, lieve eigenaar en prima ontbijt 👌🏻
Pros:

De ligging is fantastisch, recht aan het strand, verder ruime kamer en erg netjes en schoon.

Cons:

Minder vond ik het douche-gordijn, de douche zelf is erg fijn en aan een kant is een glazen wandje geplaatst, maar de andere kant hangt dus een gordijn. Dit vind ik persoonlijk niet prettig.

Lovey stay
Pros:

Everything was great, the room the location, the breakfast with a view. I loved it here.

Cons:

A fork and a knife would have been good to have in the room for the leftover food I had from the restaurants.

Wir hatten eine wirklich schöne Zeit, unser Gastgeber und seine Gattin waren sehr bemüht.
Pros:

Das Frühstück ist Continental, der Ausblick aus dem Frühstücksraum ist wunderschön.

Cons:

Wir hatten Meerblick gesucht, dieser war leider nur seitlich. Allerdings ist man in wenigen Schritten direkt beim Meer
Der Nachbarhund hat sehr häufig ( den ganzen Tag und in der Nacht)gebellt.

Sauber, zentral und super nett
Pros:

Der Inhaber ist sehr nett genauso wie das ganze Personal.
Beim Frühstück hat man eine geniale Aussicht auf die Bucht. Es ist buchstäblich direkt am Strand und man ist quasi in der Mitte des Strandes.

Cons:

Manchmal war der Wasserdruck der Dusche extrem gering. Jedoch ist hierfür vermutlich der starke Tourismus schuld, zu dem man nun mal selbst gehört und dazu beiträgt.

Emplacement idéal pour repos malgré quelques désagréments.
Pros:

Petit déjeuner correct mais manquait de variété dans les fruits,manquait de pain céréales (beaucoup plus digeste,pain à toast sucré et pain qu'on puisse griller à notre guise)pas de confitures autres que fraises et abricots industrielles miel de Bulgarie alors que la Crète regorge de miel fantastique,jus de fruits unique et industriel, et beurre restant à température ambiante pendant 1h30 (alors qu'il pourrait et devrait être entreposé dans le mini frigo avec le jus el le fromage blanc ) et pas de surveillance (être dans notre dos comme pour des gamins)

Cons:

la terrasse supérieure pourrait être aménagée avec transats (autour de la salle de petit déjeuner ce d'autant qu'aucune réception n'existe au rez de chaussée ) ce d'autant que la plage est très étroite et qu'il faut descendre mettre ses serviettes à 7h30 si on veut espérer passer un moment sur la plage et se baigner.
Sinon chambre très bien et très fonctionnelle mais obligés d'acheter du gel douche et du shampoing (pas d'articles de toilette si ce n'est le 1er jour) Vue uniquement sur un bâtiment en chantier;

A LOVELY STAY HERE ON MY OWN
Pros:

So near to the beach and great restaurants all along the beach. But need to bag a sun bed at 8.00am! This beach is very very busy. I ended up going to Ligaria beach which is 30 euros return so not a lot if more than one of you and plenty of beds. 3 bars which are all of a muchness. But such hospitality from Manolis and his wife
They got me taxis and helped with my luggage as I was recovering from an operation.

Cons:

When you order deluxe beach room with balcony you are infront of a building site and you can see the sea in the distance but not much. It's fine but was a bit disappointed with the view! However, you are only 16 or so steps from the beach and really not that much time on the balcony!

A simple little hotel right on the beach
Pros:

The location of this little hotel was perfect - right on the beach. The drive in was a bit tricky but it was so easy once we got there. Travel tip - wake up early to see the sun rise and reserve a few beach chairs while you are at it. I was grateful for the sunrise because most of the chairs were spoken for by 8:30.

Pros:

Ci siamo trovati benissimo! Tutto perfetto: l’appartamento era molto curato, pulito, confortevole e in una posizione ottimale. Manolis e sua moglie sono stati gentilissimi e sempre disponibili, attenti ad ogni dettaglio e capaci di farci sentire davvero come a casa. Consigliatissimo!

Easy, best location, great value.
Pros:

Charming and super well located, steps from the water. I also went diving and the diving center was 100 yards away. Manolis is a charming host.

Cons:

It was a great value
