The staff were excellent but that is mostly the norm on this island. Lovely and abundant breakfast (you will be overfed if you don’t tread firmly), delicious eggs and tomatoes. Wonderful garden, so many flowers, delightful sommer fragrances. Very comfortable beds and a nice (short) walk from the hotel to the restaurants and the beach. I loved it.
GermanyThe Seaview, the balcony, ..really perfect to relax. Very clean. A nice stay in a nice village.
BrazilVery nice, comfortable and super clean little hotel, with spacious rooms. Breakfast upon request offered a huge selection to satisfy everyone (vegetarian and vegan options also available). We traveled along with our dog and he was really welcome at the premises. We definitely recommend it. Also excellent value for money.
GreeceThe location, the comfy bed, the helpful staff. Rooms are very tastefully decorated.
New CaledoniaThe hotel owners were very friendly and helpful. They helped us navigate through the city and plan our trips to close-by areas. I would definitely stay there again. The breakfast is excellent and met the vegetarian needs of my partner.
United States of AmericaChristina and her husband are absolutely wonderful hosts, they took such good care of us for the week or so we were there. Avra is in a great location, right between the small village on one side and the beautiful beach area on the other. There are so many great places to eat and drink close by, along with amazing Greek music once a week at Lava. We highly recommend Avra for your trip to Agia Galini.
