This is a great location. Although it is across the road from the beach, it is a dead end road so very little traffic.
The sea seemed very safe there, we thought it was probably due to the shelter of the bay.
The village itself is very authentic and friendly, there are a few shops including a couple of mini markets which had everything you needed. There were also several restaurants in the village, all of which we tried we loved - Zorbas was great fun.
The apartment was as described in terms of facilities and everything worked well, any questions we had were quickly answered.
We would recommend this if you are looking for a quiet, more authentic experience of Greece.
