Gikas Apartments offers comfortable studios with modern amenities, including air conditioning and satellite TV. Prepare your own meals in your kitchenette and enjoy them on your large balcony, in true Greek style. In the summer, you can throw a barbecue in the yard, while you can spend the winter evenings around the fireplace.
