Elena, the owner, was very kind to us. She greeted us with sweets and a drink as soon as we arrived, advised us to go to the traditional Kamilari festival and more. The village offers everything and is well connected to cultural attractions and beaches. The rooms were clean, well equipped and the beds very comfortable - we felt at home. We highly recommend staying at this guesthouse.

It is perfect for finding a parking spot and, at the same time, it is close to the beach and the city centre. I love that there was always someone in reception to help you, and that the hostel has plans to offer you, which is great to meet new people ;) The pool was also amazing and the commodities are perfect for a long stay.BonetSolo traveller
