"We are very unhappy with this place and advise others to be very cautious in dealing with this place. They advertised four indoor pools and a free breakfast, there is none of this! The worst thing was we paid for our two night upfront on Expedia and when we went to check out they stated that we owed for the stay. We showed them both our paid Expedia account and our online credit card statement proving payment. They still said we hadn’t paid and refused to call Expedia for confirmation. After about 20 minutes of this nonsense they said ok just pay room tax. So they gave credit card scanner showing only the room tax, but when they took it back they put in the room charges we already paid. In three months of traveling all over Greece we had never had any thing like this happen. Travelers be warned!"

"It was clean but they don't come in and freshen anything up for days"

"Our family of five stayed for two nights and wished we could have stayed longer. The host was so thoughtful, there were pastries, bread and excellent coffee in the kitchen for breakfast. Everything was considered and executed with simplicity and care. We had such a wonderful time! "

"We were pleasantly surprised with this hotel. We stayed on 4th floor which was recently added and the room was fantastic. View was stunning and we had everything we needed. It's very convenient to have a spa in a hotel! Breakfast was great (homemade Greek food)! Natasa, the receptionist, was very welcoming and super friendly. We will return!"

"Loved everything. Nice people and facility"

"Property wonderful, clean, safe, well maintained. Minor annoyances included -hotel requirement for caps in pool...they should provide [charge in room rate] or tell guests up front, -some staff in breakfast room need to be better trained. "

"Love that they offered therapeutic baths in the swiming pool. Their elevator needed ventilation."

"We spent a wonderfully relaxing week with our extended family ages 7 months to 63 at Michael & Dimitria's beautiful and expansive home. The house was filled with comfortable spaces to lounge and congregate for meals, drinks and fun times in the pool. We enjoyed our short morning strolls to the local bakery, dinners at the local taverna accompanied by live bazouki music and short drives to the nearby beaches. We had a fun day on a sailboat arranged by Michael and also spent a day seeing the sights in Meteora. In between all this activity we lounged around and in the refreshing pool. The house was very clean and orderly. We especially enjoyed cooking for our crowd in the large well equipped kitchen. Michael & Dimitria were excellent hosts. If you're looking for a quiet Greek village without tourists but with a warm and friendly vibe, we recommend lovely Achinos."

"My family recently stayed 2 nights at this location. Our only complaint was we only had 2 nights. The house is a charming seaside house with an elevated position so the view was amazing. The outside area was well thought out with a great patio directly outside, well furnished area around the pool. The pool was a nice treat for my children and I to relax while enjoying the warm day. Further outside is more extended areas for dining and viewing the sea or sunset. The sunset was amazing both evenings. The house has a nice kitchen, and sitting areas with 2 bedrooms on the first floor along with a full bath. The rooms have nice closets if you had longer stays and wanted to use for your luggage. The is a small stair case (with no rail if you have small kids be aware) and 2 rooms upstairs along with a bath) the ceilings and some lights are low, my son who is over 6 foot hit his head a few times) The AC worked well, was hot in Kamena Vourla while we visited. The host Dionosis and his mother are very nice and welcoming. The provided many local recommendations and took great care of us during the visit. Kamena Vourla is a charming small seaside town, very nice people, a few nice shops and great restaurants and cafes all along the main street with beaches all around. We highly recommend a visit."
