“Thank you Natasa and Stelios for a fantastic stay! We hope to return!”
The property was great - spacious, clean, the balconies were perfect for having breakfast/dinner on. We stayed with our 20month old toddler and it was a perfect apartment for this - we were kindly provided with a cot too. The location is great too a few minutes into the town and a 10/15min walk to the main beaches, Kalyves beach is brilliant for toddlers nice shallow waters etc. The property is on a short but steep hill and up some stairs (to be aware of, we managed ok with the pram though!)

This place was fabulous. It was clean and tidy and it felt like home from home as there were nicknacks and Christmas decorations put up. There were also some 'welcome treats'. We ended up extending our stay!

Good location, you can see the sea from the balcony, it's about 400m to the sandy beach. There are shops AMD restaurants in the neighbourhood. The apartament was comfy and incredibly clean! We got whole equipment for our child - high chair, cot, changing table, bathtube, even some toys. It's possible to park just next to the door. In the kitchen you'll find everything what you need. The host was super nice and helpful ❤️

Avra Apartments are one of the most beautiful places I have recently had the pleasure to visit. Right after our arrival, we were welcomed in such a way that I immediately felt at home – fresh fruit, cold water in the fridge, as well as Greek wine and a homemade stronger drink were waiting for us. The apartment is located at the top of a steep driveway, but that’s not a problem, because Stelios had no trouble parking my car. He also took care of the children and shared his own kids’ toys with them. Throughout our stay, he kept sending us tips on where to go, what to see, and where to eat. The apartment was equipped with everything we could possibly need, very spacious, and beautifully decorated. Located right in the heart of the village of Kelavies and very close to the beach.

“Perfect for a small family”
The place was well equipped and we even had a crib, baby chair and baby bathtub at our disposal which was very helpful with a 6 month old baby. The apartment had two terraces, one from where we had a view to the sea. There are good restaurants in the neighborhood and the beach is also quite close. Natasia and her husband were very kind and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay in Avra Apartments and recommend it!

“A lovely relaxing week in a great apartment.”
The hosts Stelios and Natasa were very friendly, helpful and easy to communicate with. They booked taxis for us to and from the airport and recommended good places to eat. The apartment was extremely clean and comfortable with very nice touches such as a coffee machine, fresh coffee, fruit and wine. The apartment was in a nice quiet location about 15 minutes walk to the main beach. There were less busy beaches also about 15 minutes away in the opposite direction.

“Fantastic apartment, I could live there”
Such a nice apartment. Recently renovated but with a very nice blend of old (windows, doors and stairs) and new (floor, painted, USB-C sockets in the walls etc.) and super well equipped. The vibe in the apartment was sort of "Mediterranean" New Yorker apartment. We stayed in the two-bedroom "Sirakosa" apartment with sea view. We came here after a 2-week stay in Platanias, coming to Kalyves was a much more relaxed feeling and less touristy. Natasa was a great host as well.

“Fabulous apartment”
We stayed in the Sirokos apartment, which was immaculately presented and decorated. The beds are very comfortable, as is the whole property, which was cleaned every 4 days during our stay. The property has filtered tap water, so there is no need for bottled water and the associated plastic waste, which is a fantastic plus point. The owners are on hand and extremely helpful. We hope to be back soon.

“Perfect place for a family including everything that you need!”
We really enjoyed our stay at Avra Apartments. Everything was absolutely amazing: the location, the apartment, the amenities and the cleanliness. The apartment was fully equipped with everything making our stay very confortable and the hosts were really hospitable and kind, offerring even toys for our toddler, which was a nice bonus to our stay. Overall we truly enjoyed our stay and we would recommend the place to our friends and family in the future! Natasa and Stelios: thanks for the filoxenia!
