Remote private place with nice view
The location was in a remote place, I would say quite private. At the property there is a taverna also. The staff was friendly. The view from the room balcony was very nice. Close to the hotel is a nice small beach with umbrellas. The air conditioning unit was a little old and quite loud (so hard to sleep with it).

Total stilhed og fantastisk udsigt
Et ældre hotel, meget langt ude på landet i total stilhed (bortset fra nogle meget støjende russiske gæster). Fantastisk view ud over havet. God og billig mad i restauranten. Værten er fantastisk venlig og imødekommende. Hele hotellet er noget misligeholdt og der var som sådan ikke beregnet rengøring af vores værelse, i den uge vi boede der. Det blev dog arrangeret, da vi spurgte efter det. Et ok sted, hvis vi tager prisen i betragtning.

Άψογη εξυπηρέτηση, υπέροχη θέα, φιλικό περιβάλλον. Η παραλία καθαρή και χωρίς πολύ κόσμο.. Η πισίνα φανταστική.. Σημαντική λεπτομέρεια για την οικογένεια με παιδιά ότι κοντά δεν υπάρχει άμεση πρόσβαση σε φαρμακείο ή super market οπότε προνοήστε σχετικά!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
struttura a picco sul mare a cui si accede ad una piccola spiaggietta privata. intorno non c’è nulla e si raggiunge percorrendo una strada sterrata. la stanza era spoglia e sporca( a terra c’erano formiche), ma considerando che sei immerso nella natura è da mettere in preventivo. per fortuna noi siamo rimasti solo 1 notte. La famiglia che lo gestisce ha anche una taverna, con poche scelte ma buone e a prezzi ancora più modici della media

Un petit coin de paradis isolé et Accueillant
Vous ne trouverez pas un grand hôtel tout confort avec tous les avantages d’un quatre étoiles, mais quelque chose de bien plus sympathique, un petit coin de paradis, avec un couple qui fait tous les efforts pour rendre le séjour agréable. Les appartements sont propres et confortable, la taverne les appartements sont propres et confortable, la taverne très agréable et la piscine, surprenant au début, car c’est de l’eau de mer et n’est pas limpide , finalement très sympathique. Pour les amoureux du calme qui aiment les choses simples.

Idéal et dépaysement assuré
Une ambiance de bout du monde propice au repos . Vue sublime, cadre sauvage ! Patron et personnel charmants et disponibles. Le resto est parfait et très bon marché. Petite plage magnifique et piscine au top !! La route depuis Pombia prend une petite demi heure, à travers la montagne puis redescente sur la mer. Derniers kilomètres sur petite route pittoresque mais tout a fait accessible ! Hôtel très bien indiqué à gauche lorsque vous arriverez par la route vers Kaloi limenes face à la mer.

Un luogo mistico che unisce natura e relax
La nostra esperienza è stata molto positiva. Sin dal nostro arrivo abbiamo ricevuto un’ottima accoglienza. Dopo un giorno di viaggio è stato possibile cenare su una terrazza con un panorama mozzafiato, la stessa al mattino è apparsa ancora piu bella con il sole e la colazione sulla terrazza con vista mare. Abbiamo mangiato dei piatti tipici locali, tutto fresco e preparato da loro, ottima qualità ad un prezzo abbastanza modesto. Le camere comode, accoglienti, ospitali, anche queste con vista mare. Consigliamo per raggiungere il posto solo di seguire le vie principali, rispetto alle vie secondarie, non asfaltate che invece passano attraverso dei villaggi circostanti. Un luogo mistico che unisce relax, natura, silenzio a sapori ed i colori della Grecia! Ottima posizione per chi vuole visitare anche Matala.

Отель понравился. Вид с балкона в номере живописнейший! Сам номер огромный. И очень гостеприимный хозяин! Не было wifi, сказали что проблема появилась в день нашего приезда, но это не критично. По расположению отеля конечно есть минус - неудобно добираться, да ещё и карта повела нас по проселочной дороге, по горам и вдоль обрыва. Было невероятно жутко, но оказалось что есть объездная дорога, правда намного дольше по километрам, но думаю по времени так же. Т.к. мы плелись по проселочной около 13 км часа 1,5-2. Плюс- невероятная красота и уединенность. Тихо, утром спустились одни на пляж. Все были в восторге. Пляж галечный.Этот отель однозначно рекомендую. Особенно тем кто хочет побыть наедине с природой, ну или с собой)))

Απλά τέλειο
Εύκολη πρόσβαση σε υπέροχες παραλίες. Φανταστική θέα, πεντακάθαρα δωμάτια εξωτερικοί χώροι και πισίνα, τέλειο φαγητό και οικονομικό στο πολυτελές εστιατόριο του ξενοδοχείου. Εξωτικά κοκτέιλ στο γεμάτο μουσικές μπαράκι της πισίνας. Ζεστό νερό για μπάνιο μέρα νύχτα στα δωμάτια και άπειρα δορυφορικά κανάλια για όλα τα γούστα στην τηλεόραση. Απλά τέλειο. Υ. Γ. το μόνο μειονέκτημα του ξενοδοχείου είναι πως δεν έχει τζάκι στα δωμάτια και έτσι τον χειμώνα δεν θα κάνω το ρεβεγιόν των Χριστουγέννων εκεί. Ελπίζω να βοήθησα κάποιον που θέλει να πάει.

Hôtel difficile à trouver, au bout d'une piste
Pas de route goudronnée pour y accéder , juste une piste a peine carrossable et un manque d'indication pour y arriver. Salle de bain lamentable : un trou pour l'évacuation de la douche sans rideau, ainsi on rince le lavabo et les wc; ni étagère ni porte-serviette. Piscine inutilisable.
