Studio Apartments Aleksandra

The view was great, and the sea was wonderful. I especially enjoyed swimming across the 400 m bay, with some snorkeling along the way. The pool is small but good enough to keep kids entertained. When we visited from mid July to August, the sea was mostly wavy and the weather cooler than expected. We were told that wasn't normal for the season. It's a simple apartment rental with a kitchen and bathroom. The rooms are a little old but clean and well maintained. There's an electric heater for hot water, and air conditioning, though we didn't need it. The fridge and stove are old but work fine, and the kitchenware was adequate and fairly new. Sheets and towels are changed often if you ask. There isn't a beach, but there are several large platforms on the rocks with sunbeds and umbrellas. Getting there involves a 200 m dirt road, and you'll need a car if you plan to cook. The nearest food shop is more than a kilometer away, reached by walking past a small pebble beach, some stairs, and a slope. There are three closer restaurants along that route by the large, crowded beach.

The rooms are spacious, the beds are okay, and the kitchen has the basics. They change the bedclothes, but they don't clean the room. I came hoping to enjoy the beautiful view, but the pool was noisy from morning until evening, with parents and kids shouting and jumping in. It was tiring and stressful. The staff at this small hotel should manage the noise, since everyone is here for a holiday. One Chechen mother of six told me, “well, they are just children,” while her six kids were screaming and jumping into the pool at 4pm, when it was time to rest. Hello, we have kids too.

We stayed in the “studio apartment wirh sea view.” It was spacious and had all the appliances we needed for a holiday. The private beach was great too.

Having direct access to the sea was the main thing we wanted, and that was perfectly met. The private beach has sunbeds and umbrellas, and that made the stay enjoyable for me despite a few drawbacks. The road in is rocky, narrow, and steep, though manageable, and parking can be stressful because space is limited. Appartment 1 needs some repairs and refreshing: the external roller shutters are broken, the insect screens are torn, and the air conditioning leaks. There isn't much to do nearby besides swimming and sunbathing, so you'll need to drive for attractions or groceries.
