From the second we arrived, the owners were so lovely and friendly. We were shown to our room where there was a carraffe of raki, a bottle of wine and a bottle of water waiting for us. Not only that but soap, shower gel and shampoo, perfect for if you've not packed any. To top it off there were also slippers! We went for a room with a sea view which was lovely. There were sun beds on the beach provided by the owners which was literally meters from the studios. We would certainly stay here again.

Fantastic property and the loveliest hosts! So nice to have wonderful local people look after you as they told us the best restaurants and cheapest buses etc. Also the property could not be more perfect, a pool right next door and the beach a literal stone throw away!! So so clean and everything you could want in it, would definitely recommend and we will definitely return!

Skønt hotel med de sødeste ejere. Vi skulle skifte værelse midt på ugen (fordi vi blev tilbudt en opgradering til havudsigt de første tre dage, hvilket vi sagde ja til) - det var lidt svært at få at vide præcis hvornår vi skulle skifte værelse, men det var fuldstændig problemfrit når det kom til stykket. Alt i alt et vildt hyggeligt lille hotel helt ned til stranden med søde ejere. Jeg vil roligt anbefale dette sted og kunne også selv finde på at besøge det igen.
