“Family-owned locally-sourced stay”

We stayed at the Pansion with our three kids (8, 6, and 4) and this was so far the best accommodation we had with the kids. The breakfast is freshly prepared every day.

We stayed at the Pansion with our three kids (8, 6, and 4) and this was so far the best accommodation we had with the kids. The breakfast is freshly prepared every day. The fact that this is a family-owned pension and they also own farm makes such a difference. Both Martha and Deni are such pleasant hosts and they try to help you with everything. We had room on the top floor and while it takes some climbing they view is beautiful and each room have own balcony, but there’s also large veranda where a larger company can stay. We also enjoyed the fact this is not a “party” hotel, so the evenings are generally very quiet.

“So friendly. ”

Fantastic apartments in a great location only a short walk from the beach and tavernas. Basic but clean and comfortable and Greek in style. Run by a lovely family who make you feel so welcome.

Fantastic apartments in a great location only a short walk from the beach and tavernas. Basic but clean and comfortable and Greek in style. Run by a lovely family who make you feel so welcome. Grandma ( who is just adorable and can often be heard singing) gave us fresh figs one day as we set off on our travels and another day we were handed big juicy tomatoes. On the day we were leaving we were told we could leave our luggage with them until it was time to leave for the airport and use their facilities to freshen up. We were served up with melon while waiting for the taxi......it’s that good....heaven! Thank you for a lovely stay 😊

Lovely family, very hospitable, helpful & friendly & several times we were gifted grapes, freshly laid eggs, figs & home-made sweet treats made from grapes. Apartments were cleaned regularly & clean sheets & towels were changed several times a week, (although there was a large thread under one bed for nearly a week). I was a bit disconcerted to find there were no mattress protectors :(, but ample toiletries, toilet rolls & complementary shower gel, shampoo & soap were provided. Hot water was plentiful apart from the day of our departure. Apartments are old & a little tired - the kitchen units looked as if the doors would benefit from a good wipe-down & there was something sprayed up the outside of the bathroom door. I'd suggest that the inclusion of a sharp knife (the serrated knife provided struggled to cut a peach), cutting board, a waste bin in the kitchen, tea towel & a washing up bowl would be useful additions as neither the sink or basin plugs fitted. In a country so keen to conserve water this seems a bit of an anomaly. We were on the second floor & despite the treacherous metal fire escape-type steps we had a lovely view of the sea & surrounding countryside in a very peaceful location. A light outside the front door would also be extremely helpful when returning after dark as the single bare bulb either end of the landing is not much use if your apartment is halfway along. The beach is described as pebbly - cobbly would be a more accurate description & VERY uncomfortable to sit on. To be honest the beach was a bit of a disappointment with the first section being little more than an extension of the car park & was littered with discarded cigarette ends & vape 'toys'. As this was our first holiday since the pandemic we expected prices to have risen, but were shocked that they were charging 20 euros a day for a pair of sunbeds without either umbrella or table. There is very little shade on the beach; some trees by the waters edge but this necessitates sitting on the tiered cobbles as it's too unstable to put a sunbed there & one section where there were some thatched straw umbrellas but these aren't moveable to get shade & the sunbeds are too close together to move them into the shade. These were also on the back row right beside the wooden walkway where people were thumping up & down all day so not the most relaxing spot too sit.

“Nice place with nice people”

Very quiet location, near to the beach. Our room was small and slightly outdated with open wet shower room. We didn’t eat there but had some drinks which were ok. Balcony good size, lovely family looking after the place.
