This place is amazing. We absolutely loved staying here! Ioanna and her family couldn't be more friendly and helpful. Although basic the apartment is lovely - the large balcony and view are just gorgeous, spectacular. Perfect. Incredible value for money, especially as Stegna is such a special place. It's quite traditionally 'Greek' and chilled, with loads of brilliant tavernas along the beach road. Not nearly as touristy as other places on Rhodes. And the apartment is right there - metres from the sea, and the perfect beach, safe for kids, crystal clear water, fantastic snorkelling, with an excellent shop next door, and tavernas within 2 minutes walk (but far enough so that is super quiet). Seriously, what more could you ask for?!
For us: nothing. But to be totally open - the WIFI wasn't great, and the beds aren't the softest. Also the kitchenette is tiny (but just fine for breakfast and lunches and pasta etc). We adapted pretty quickly - I like a firmer bed - but in case you're expecting something super luxe, be aware that this isn't that.
But I reckon that it's much much better - as it's affordable and the view and the atmosphere are beyond euros. Sitting on the balcony with a drink, watching the day unwind was heaven. Also it's spotlessly clean, with a cleaner every 3 days, and clean towels and sheets, a luxury in itself. For the budget the location, size and cleanness of the apartment are exceptional.
I can't recommend this place enough - it really was one of the best holiday experiences we've ever had.
THANK YOU so much Ioanna, and all her family. We can't wait to come back next year!! And the next year and so on... Stegna is one of our favourite places in the world!
