Friendly and helpful owner; comfortable stay

These are lovely self-contained cabins, run by the super hospitable and helpful Ali! They are VERY clean, which we appreciated, and although we didn't really use it, the kitchen was well stocked. I'd definitely stay again.

Nice little cabin perched on the hill with a view of both the hills and (a bit of) the sea conveniently located for the bars and restaurants of Pahia. Our welcome on arrival was very friendly. There was a good amount of cooking implements which came in handy but the cabin could have benefited from some complementary shower gel/body wash. The shower head was also a bit small for me at 6'1"! Altogether however we really enjoyed this property.

It is situated in a quiet location, slightly uphill and within a 5 min walk into the centre of the lovely town. The property was clean and had everything we needed as a couple in our 50's visiting for 5 nights.
