Die saubere Anlage mit dem Pool war sehr ruhig und sauber. Der Kontakt mit der freundlichen Vermieterin war immer möglich und Fragen wurden sofort beantwortet. Zu den Stränden in Kalyves und Almyrida waren es 10 Minuten mit dem Auto. Sehr entspannt. Der kleine Ort bietet mit zwei Tavernen auch abends die Möglichkeit ohne Auto essen zu gehen. ##### Ute T.
