Ich bin begeistert von der Lage, der Freundlichheit des Personals, liebevoll und leckerem Frühstück und der Sauberkeit.
Pros:

Die Lage war sehr gut. Es war ruhig, und trotzdem war ich in wenigen Minuten im Zentrum von Fira. Ich hatte einen phantastischen Blick über die Caldera von meinem Zimmer aus. Das Frühstück war liebevoll und abwechslungsreich hergerichtet. Jeden Tag eine Besondere Kleinigkeit für jeden aus der Region zum Probieren. Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit bei Fragen. Ich werde gerne wiederkommen.

Pros:

Piękne widoki i zachody słońca. Super lokalizacja apartamentu, blisko do przystanku autobusowego i centrum Firy. Bliskość tawern. Cisza i spokój. Byliśmy na początku kwietnia i polecam jechać przef sezonem. Śniadania skromne ale można się najeść. Codziennie sprzątane pokoje. Bardzo dobry kontakt z obsługą apartamentu .Polecam 😀

Cons:

Troszkę mała łazienka ale to nie jest jakiś duży problem 😏

Pros:

Ich hatte fünf wundervollen Tage in der Villa Ilias. Die Aussicht ist spektakulär und nach Fira läuft man nur 10 Minuten. Tolles Frühstück, super gemütliches Bett und die dicksten, flauschigsten Handtücher :) Ich habe jede Sekunde genossen und werde auf jeden Fall wieder kommen. Danke für die schöne Zeit🌻

Pros:

Super Lage, super freundliches Personal, super Aussicht, leckeres Frühstück (Buffet), toller Pool. - Danke! :)

Cons:

Bei Wind ist es sehr laut.
Die Zimmer sind recht klein.

Unabhängig von dieser Unterkunft: In der Vorsaison (vor April) wird überall gebaut und gestrichen, so dass überall gehammert wird, und es überall nach frischem Lack stinkt; dafür kann die Unterkunft aber nichts, bzw. es ist überall so.
