“If we visit Kalyves again, we won’t think about where to stay”
It’s all clean, a very good and organized terrace, a beautiful and clean garden. Totally meet with our expectations. Also the owner of the studios, she helps us very much, explains the places and recommend us about the Crete. Lady is very thoughtful, kind and helpful.

I was impressed from the moment i stepped in, the place is amazing! It's so nice decorated by lady owner, wich was soo nice and kind with us. The bed is super comfortable, instant hot water, front balcony with spectacular view , the pool small but perfect for a quick afternoon refreshing swim. I definitely want to come back. Thanks to Dimitra family. Hope for the best!

“Everything so very relaxed. Great stay, thank you Dimitra”
Dimitra looks after her guests very well, it’s her mission to be professional and helpful. We had our beds and towels changed every two or three days this was lovely, it made us happy. We stayed for three very comfortable weeks, the beds and bedding were good. The garden, small pool and our terrace were excellent facilities. Great value. Many great restaurants close by and the most fabulous beach and swimming, 10 mins walk turn left out of the gate. All so very relaxed, thank you Dimitra x

“Great place to stay”
Lovely studios, beautifully and tastefully decorated by Dimitra in a sea side theme. Had everything we needed, and it was very clean and comfortable and it felt homely. Dimitra is such a nice lady who we felt genuinely cares about her guests and wants to ensure you have everything you need. We felt very welcome.

“Great place to stay”
Dimitra is an amazing host she is available when needed and very quick to respond to any queries. The rooms are immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and are equipped with everything you might need. There is a lovely roof terrace with sun beds and seating areas and the pool is the perfect size. Kalyves is a lovely little town, there are many bars restaurants shops and supermarkets to the left and right of Dimitra studios. (The biggest supermarket Synka is a 7 minute walk to the left as you come out of the accommodation) The town offers a large choice of places to eat, it is buzzing in the evenings but it’s not a party town. You can easily take the bus to Chania and other towns from very nearby. Overall it is a lovely place to stay and the studios offer the perfect base for exploring the area.

Accommodation was lovely, really beautifully accessorised and Dimitra is a lovely lady. She’s messaged every couple of days if she hadn’t seen me to check everything was ok and if I needed anything.
