I loved my stay at Sofos Apartments and would absolutely not hesitate to recommend a stay here. Athina and her family were absolutely lovely and nothing was too much trouble for them. The apartments themselves were perfect with beautiful views, and clean and well equipped. The surrounding gardens are also beautiful and well maintained and I enjoyed my early evenings in the hammock with my book and a small beer! It was a perfect little Greek hideaway and I will definitely be back. Thank you so much for having me :)

A real hidden gem

This was a magical place to stay. A real family run place with incredible hospitality, peaceful atmosphere and views to die for. Everything is beautifully maintained and tended to, from the 800 year old olive trees, to the canopies of vines and bourgainvillea all around providing protection from the sun. If you are after 5* luxury, this is not the place for you, but if you want real Greek hospitality in a beautiful setting with spectacular views over Tsivili beach, I would recommend Sofos 100%. I will not be staying anywhere else!

Stunning views - wonderful property

It is difficult for me to say anything bad about these apartments - truth be told I can't rate them and the owners highly enough. It's one of those cases where you want everyone to appreciate them but on the other hand don't want them to be so popular I cannot get another booking! I know the Greek people are friendly but the family who own the apartments go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable and as enjoyable as possible

Gli appartamenti godono di una suggestiva vista mare e sono immersi in uno splendido giardino fiorito,circondato da ulivi.Athina si è messa a disposizione con grande generosità e attenzione,ci ha fornito consigli preziosi per visitare spiagge o scoprire ristoranti fuori dai percorsi turistici consueti, ci ha assicurato il transfer gratuito da e per l’aeroporto,una dolcissima padrona di casa

Abbiamo alloggiato per 7 giorni in questa struttura.. Non ho parole per descrivere la bellezza del posto, la vista spettacolare che ci ha svegliate e dato la buonanotte tutti i giorni.. La gentilezza della proprietaria è sconcertante.. Tsilivi, la città ai piedi di questa struttura, offre qualsiasi tipo di servizio e ottimo punto per raggiungere tutti i luoghi di interesse.. Consigliatissimo, se dovessi ritornare a Zante sicuro alloggerei qui

Usanze tribali

Al momento di prenotare sapevo che gli appartamenti sarebbero stati spartani e ci stava bene visto il prezzo pagato.Sapevamo pure che asciugamani e lenzuola sarebbero stati cambiati ogni tre giorni.Ma la pretesa di non buttare la carta igienica nel water e conservarla, magari anche quella per tre giorni in appositi contenitori nel bagno stesso , come da vecchia usanza tribale greca , proprio no.Il bagno piccolo e senza bidè poi completano il quadro.La doccia non ha tendine per cui si allaga tutto.Occorrerebbe un saliscendi di plastica di pochi euro per utilizzarla alla meno peggio.Il frigo in camera è rumoroso per cui la notte è d'obbligo spegnerlo per riposare.La prima colazione al bar , non compresa ,è prevalentemente all'inglese.Non sanno cosa siano i croissant e in generale la colazione internazionale con frutta yogurt cereali torte latte caffè toast etcetcetcetc.NB La carta igienica la abbiamo buttata nel water e non è successo nulla dei macelli idraulici paventati dalla proprietaria che appena arrivati si è raccomandata soprattutto di dirci questo.

Grazioso studio a due passi dal mare

Abbiamo soggiornato per nove notti nella struttura. La stanza è vista mare e vicina al centro. Posizione strategica per visitare l'isola. Il personale è super gentile.
