We loved our stay at Glykeria. The room is lovely with great view of the sea, high-quality bed and bedding, very nice toiletries and modern bathroom. The staff and owner were very friendly and kind. We felt totally at ease and at home there. Breakfast here was gourmet and you can order any items on the menu. It was definitely a highlight for the stay. Only 10 minutes to Elafonisi beach. Perfect. Would love to visit again.
