Our stay in Ursula's apartment (no. 4) was truly lovely. It's small but perfectly sized for two adults.
The apartment is beautifully decorated with a simple elegant shabby chic style. It is air conditioned which is fantastic for the extraordinary long hot days lazing in the sun. You'll enjoy a lovely little balcony over looking the pool with some candles which Ursula leaves for you.
The only negative for us, was the bed was rock hard.
The kitchen is fully equipped apart from a couple suggested additions such possibly a toaster and cork screw and maybe even 1 or 2 bedside lamps in the apartment. We absolutely loved the style of lights in the bedroom, but they're very bright. Would be nice to have a bit of a lower mood light when lazing in bed in the evening.
Ursula as a host is lovely. She is responsive, professional and a pleasure to deal with and her rates for her property are decent. We had a contact on site called Vasylis who was there if you needed any help in regards to the apartment. He's really friendly and just lovely!!
The property on which her apartment is situated has a large gorgeous swimming pool which is cleaned each evening and generally well maintained. The pool bar food is simple, reasonably priced and delicious and the staff who run it are extremely friendly and kind and will help with whatever they can, including booking taxis, etc.
The apartment is a 5 minute walk to a local shop called Bambam, it's approx. 8 mins walk to a small pebble beach, a 10 min drive by taxi to Kos Town centre, which is around 7 Euros each way. And something fun we suggest everyone does is hire a quad and go on a random unplanned drive around the island - what a fun adventure we had!! Dave's Motors is a couple doors down where you can hire either a quad, scooter, push bike, etc at extremely reasonable prices.
Greece is full of stray cats which is heartbreaking to say the least. A tin of cat food is really cheap, so I would kindly ask anybody who visits Greece try to look after some kitties with some food please?
As many cats as there were around the apartment, there were two main ones who came over daily. One usually at the front - a little white and slight ginger colour (I called her Princess 💕) and the other a white with some grey and other colours who tends to hang around the pool area and pop over to Ursula's apartment (I called him Prince - original, I know! 🤣😂). They are very friendly, affectionate and just want some love and grub. Not much to ask for really.
We would highly recommend staying here. It was absolutely perfect in every way for us with everything you need nearby, reasonably priced and the apartment beautiful and clean.
