Maria Apartments

The private parking had several spaces, and the beach was lovely, open to guests whenever, even late at night if you fancied a drink by the water. The couple running the place were friendly and helpful, which added to the welcome. We stayed 12 days in room 7 in Messonghi. It was kept clean and neat, with a full clean and fresh sheets and towels every 2-3 days. The balcony was a good size, with a table, chairs, sea and sunset views, and a drying rack. The air conditioning had a remote. They'd thought of so many useful little things. The welcome kit included water in the fridge, hairspray, mousse, toothpaste and toothbrushes, shower gel and conditioner, plus a first aid kit, tweezers, scissors, needle and thread, pins, sanitary pads, makeup remover pads and cotton swabs. The little kitchen had a stovetop, a fairly roomy mini fridge, pans, pots, plates, glasses and cups, as well as a toaster, kettle and microwave. There was instant coffee, sugar and a few tea bags too. It's a quiet, secluded place, which suited us well. The nearby village is only a few minutes' drive away, with nice beach bars and supermarkets. The location also works for seeing the island, about an hour and a half by car to either the north or south. We're two young adults, and evenings felt a bit too quiet at first, though we got used to it. The most popular beaches are up north, but the drive is worth it. We'd recommend staying here if you're after somewhere peaceful.

The owner is incredibly kind, and the beach is right there, quiet and free of crowds or noise. It's clean and tidy, with everything in its place, though of course it's not a 5-star hotel. A lovely spot to relax 😊😊😊 The kitchen sponge and bathroom liquids were a nice touch, as was the kit of useful bits like plasters, thread, a needle and scissors.

The garden is spacious and so nicely arranged, and the apartments are clean, tidy and have what you need. The beach is just 20 meters away and feels like it's all yours, with nothing but quiet, stillness and the sea. Such a beautiful place to come when you need a break from everything. Many good things to say about it. The internet could be better, though.

The owners were so gracious and kind, and really made us feel at home. Inside, the apartment had thoughtful little touches everywhere, from a welcome glass of ouzo to hairspray, mousse and eyebrow tweezers. Our room was clean and the setting very quiet. It was also a comfortable place in a handy location. Outside there was a small play area and a tidy garden, plus a little private beach just across the street.
