The house is clean, and a good size for a family of four. The ac is strong and the blinds on the windows keep the rooms dark in the morning. The decking offers good views over the olive groves.
Aptera is a great town with nice restaurants, and excellent Greek and Roman ruins. It is a short drive to Kalyves for the beach. The house is not near to the centre of Aptera so a car is needed even in the evenings.
The pool could use more shade and a more regular clean. We were a bit disappointed with it.
The double bed in one of the bedroom was very hard and uncomfortable to sleep in. It could use a new mattress. We also couldn’t find English tv for the kids. We also didn’t have enough dishwasher tablets for the week.
A good but not great house.
