Abelonas Houses

Comfy and spacious, generally clean (apart from the mouldy freezer!), with a reasonably well kitted out kitchen and good shower. Bed was quite comfy and so was the living room, though a bit sparsely furnished. Easy communications with host and access via a key safe was straightforward.

The biggest problem was the location - we thought we would be okay as we love to walk, brought a torch, and saw it was not far from a bus stop. We had forgotten we would need to be hauling drinking water as well as food, and the nearest shop is about a 30 minute walk, with roads lacking pavements and everyone driving like maniacs. More of a problem, it did not feel safe walking home after dark, especially because there are lots of stray dogs (and, perhaps, owned dogs roaming free, which is apparently normal in Greece). We had a genuinely scary encounter near to the house on the first evening and after that got taxis every night. Taxis are very expensive and several drivers were reluctant to take us right to the house as the road is so bad. Having to argue with taxi drivers every night rather ruined the holiday feel! Also, although a peaceful setting, there was a lot of noise transfer from the flat upstairs. We didn't use the hot-tub as the terrace was near to where staff sat smoking and listening to the radio - so that was a disappointment too.

Son muy amables!!

Good place to travel around the island. Quiet, well equiped, perfect whirpool, close to the sea.

Kitchen might be a bit better equiped to make the cooking easier, e.g. knifes, pans or number of plates

Spacious and comfortable. With a car, it is quite a good location for traveling around the island. The host response message quick and help to resolve some unexpected issues.
