Reviews for Kallicrates Village

Review 1：Practical everything, the appartment was spacious with nice balcony and access to garden, where kids could play and run, swimming pool was great and manager passes really userfriendlly advices.

Review 2：Bed was not very good but good enough.

Review 3：Beautiful environment, lovely views. Owners were very nice. Village was peaceful but enough markets and tavernas. Very nice and peaceful place.

Review 4：There was no double bed and thus a rim on between. Internet only worked in the poolarea.

Review 5：Perfect garden. Wonderful poolarea with good food. Nice hospitility... thanks Adonis for thw nice stay!

Review 6：The owners and staff are so friendly and extremely helpful, they go that extra mile to make your holiday a holiday. If chilled is your bent this close knit family will welcome you with open arms and provide an experience that will humble even the most seasoned traveller. The location is outstandingly beautiful with panoramas to die for and at the same time providing easy access to jaw dropping gorge, coastal and mountain walks, 15 minutes from a harbour where boat trips are available to numerous villages and beaches along the south coast, and for the less adventurous there is a safe beach and an excellent Taverna both a minutes walk away and all of it with the backdrop of mind blowing scenery.

Review 7：Excellent location, only a short walk to the best taverna (Vatalos Taverna) in the village. Very good facilities, lovely staff (friendly and helpful, family-run), near to beaches, very quiet so ideal for winding down! Costs of everything are much lower than in main towns, and there are also lots of interesting sights/sites to see (e.g. we saw a griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus), gorges, classical ruins, and so on). No night life, except for local tavernas and the bar at the small complex, which is what we wanted!

Review 8：Old bad, need new mattresses. Village, nothing special actually no village just houses left and right without concept.

Review 9：Nice property, spacious garden, lovely people. Big room with all kitchen fascilities. You need car in Frangokastello.

Review 10：Extremely friendly and helpful staff made us feel very welcome! A lovely beach is just a short walk away. There was a balcony with an amazing view of the sea and mountains from our room.

Review 11：I missed having a hair dryer.

Review 12：Well planned small complex with space to wander. The pool was inviting and the breakfast/bar area was reminiscent of the Caribbean. Antonius was so welcoming and spent a lot of time suggesting excursions that suited us. Breakfast was delicious especially the freshly squeezed orange juice and local cheese pie.

Review 13：Pool isn't nearly as a large as all the low-angled shots make it appear. Wi-Fi signal sporadic in the unit, though it consistently worked fine in the common areas.

Review 14：Far, far from the madding crowd. Nicely landscaped complex about a five-minute walk from the beach and a good taverna. Comfortable units with all the expected amenities. An excellent choice for those who want to "get away from it all" and enjoy the spectacular landscapes of Sfakia.

Review 15：Everything was ok.

Review 16：Fantastic place in the fantastic Frangokastello. Excelent room, very beautiful outdoors, amazing landscape! Great breakfast! Very nice owner!

Review 17：The only minor thing I can think of is the wifi connection that wasn't always available, but don't let that stop you from booking here!

Review 18：Hospitality & friendliness of the owners & staff, breakfast options, cocktails, the location and peace,... everything was GREAT! Recommend everybody who's fed up with all-in mass hotels to go here.

Review 19：There is no nightlife but it's the last thing you will care about. No wifi in the rooms.

Review 20：Clean and modern apartment with all basic amenities and some more Great hosts Very nice places around Value for money It is ideal for families or if you want to relax. There are a lot of activities close (by car). Trust Antonis' suggestions.

Review 21：It's quiet. It's clean. Breakfast was great, with traditional Cretan sweets and homemade food. We really enjoyed the hospitality of the owner of the hotel. Always willing to provide us with any information and assistance.

Review 22：Nothing, it was really all perfect.

Review 23：We are extremely happy with our experience at Kallicrates Village! The place is perfect for so many reasons: great location, very helpful and kind staff, great pool with modern furniture, etc. In the neighborhood you can do some great hiking, visit the Samaria gorges and Impros gorges, and there are lovely beaches. The Vatalos taverna just nearby Kallicrates is great for a dinner near the sea! We strongly recommend the place.

Review 24：The lack of fresh fish and difficult / slow access by road in most directions. No oven.

Review 25：Far from the madding crowd, this mysterious rugged coastal plain is scented with thyme and freshened by the sea breeze. Time stands still allowing one to unwind on lightly populated sandy and rocky beeches. With a good supply of books or other amusements the introvert can be happily amused. The pool and bar area of Kallicrates are well designed and Antonio is welcoming and generous.

Review 26：If you are looking for peace and quiet, look no further.

Review 27：Welcoming staff; Convenience to local supermarket and tavernas; Unspoiled location; Standard of facilities in the apartment.
