Et sted og et hotell til å lengte tilbake til
Hotel Gigilos har en fantastisk beliggenhet ved stranden. Det er svært stille det meste av døgnet.
Personalet er svært serviceinnstilt.
Hotellets egen restaurant er hyggelig og rimelig og serverer god mat.
Det eneste negative er mangelen på praktiske hyller og knagger på badet.

Ένα μεγάλο ευχαριστώ
Εκτός από επαγγελματίες, είναι και άνθρωποι. Έχουν ευαισθησία και κατανόηση πάνω στο κομμάτι πεζοπορία / ορειβασία, συμπεριφερόμενοι πολύ ευγενικά και ευέλικτα σε ανθρώπους που μπορεί ακόμη και να αλλάξουν ξαφνικά πρόγραμμα λόγω καιρικών συνθηκών στα άγρια βουνά των Λευκών Ορέων. Αποτελούν σταθερή προτίμηση για πολύ κόσμο που ασχολείται με δραστηριότητες ελεύθερου χρόνου στη φύση.

Einfaches Strandhotel mit Renovierungsbedarf
Das in die Jahre gekommene, einfache Gästehaus ist total überbewertetet. Die Lage direkt am Strand und der freundliche Familienservice sind empfehlenswert. Das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis geht so gerade.

Bright sunny accommodation with hospitable owners
A bright sunny room overlooking the beach. Very hospitable owners and a great taverna downstairs for all your needs. A great choice to rest overnight after walking the gorge or for a few days of total peace and relaxation.

A perfect base for the gorge hike
It was a perfect night to prepare for a big day's hike up Samaria gorge. The owner was very welcoming and throughout the stay he was always friendly and helpful. He also provided an extra pullout bed at short notice. The room was small but fine, with good aircon and free wifi. We had a really good dinner in the restaurant overlooking the beach and the breakfast the following morning was fine too. He helpfully offered a place to store our luggage while we hiked the gorge.

Fantastiskt litet hotell med magisk strandutsikt och väldigt service minded personal då jag glömde kvar saker så löste de det mycket smidigt - Tack :)
Perfekt hotell att stanna en natt på efter att vandrat Samaria Gorge. God frukost ned fantastisk beach view o vågskvalp från restaurangen mysig strand som var lugn (när vi var där) vi är supernöjda o skulle definitivt boka igen.

Græsk uden dikkedarer
Helt unikt ophold på et helt unikt sted.
Man kan enten sejle eller vandre gennem samarikløften.
Hotellet er egentlig lowclass, men det passer bare med stedet og med det lette strandliv, man har på stedet.
