Eentje waar je terug naar moet komen
Pros:

Ontzettend relaxte omgeving met een klein team wat de ervaring ultiem maakte. Het voelde niet als vakantie, maar als thuiskomen bij mensen. Gevarieerd ontbijt en op wens werd ook het diner bereid. We kregen regelmatig een echt Grieks gerecht voorgeschoteld om te proeven.
Gastvrij en als je zelf wat moeite steekt in het contact leggen, krijg je er echt iets bijzonders voor terug!

Cons:

Niets

Jauka pieredze pie brīnišķīgiem saimniekiem
Pros:

Ļoti sirsnīgi un atsaucīgi saimnieki, liela istaba, labs miegs klausoties jūras šalkās. Bagātīgas brokastis papildinātas ar Silvijas pašceptiem sāļiem un saldiem pīrāgiem un cepumiem. Dušas gēlam ļoti jauka smarža. Dāvaniņa prombraucot bija ļoti jauks pārsteigums.

Cons:

Izlasot citas atsauksmes, dušas kabīnes izaicinājumiem bijām gatavi :) bet jāsaka, ka dušas laiks tiešām bija izaicinājums, jo lai kā centāmies kārtot aizkaru, lai saglabātu sausu grīdu, nekad mums tas neizdevās :) Labprāt būtu gribējuši vismaz 2x stiprāku kafiju, tā bija ļoti, ļoti vāja.

Outstanding!
Pros:

The hosts - Mr. Kanakis and Silvia - are the most incredible people! Silvia provided an unbeatable service - and even got up an hour earlier than usual on a Sunday so we could have breakfast before our flight home. We will return!

Un bel établissement en bord de mer
Pros:

Etablissement en bord de mer, avec une jolie terrasse, un grand espace piscine et un agréable jardin. Il y a également un accès direct et privatif à la plage. Les petits déjeuners sont vraiment excellents.

Cons:

Réservation d'une chambre avec vue mer, mais à notre arrivée, elles étaient touts occupées suite à une erreur de la part de l'hôtel ... Nous n'avons pas ouvert un dossier en réclamation auprès de Booking (trop gentils ...) et avons été de notre poche de 2 x 25€ ...

Delightful Greek hospitality in wonderful surroundings (though you need a car)
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay. The Kanakis family were very attentive and went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
The seaview from our balcony was outstanding. The breakfast buffet had everything we could want, especially Greek treats.
