We had a fantastic stay in Casa Vitae, Villa Amaryllis. The apartment was very clean, well maintained, and actually more modern than we expected. The pool area was great and made the stay even more enjoyable. The staff were incredibly helpful and responded quickly whenever we had questions or needed assistance. We would definitely recommend this place and would gladly come back.

Exceptional charming boutique hotel and courtyard

Stayed the second week in October for 2 days at this charming hotel. Annamaria was very welcoming upon our arrival offering us a welcoming drink in the gorgeous courtyard while we checkin and bags brought up to our rooms for us. The breakfast was fantastic having everything you could want from pastries, cheese and cold cuts, assortment of breads and eggs made to order. The location is quiet and has everything closely. The room was unique and well equipped with bottled water, tea/coffee and a cookie, robe and slippers plus a fantastic jetted massage shower ! Annamarie took care of all our needs whether it be recommending dinner restaurants, transportation questions getting the bus to Agios Nickolaos or prior communications by email answered promptly. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others !

Väldigt fint boende och perfekt med oss som åkte med vår tvååring. Egen pool var perfekt under de riktigt varma eftermiddagarna. Bra kök med basutbud. Riktigt vacker byggnad och centralt läge mitt i Gamla stan. Mycket hjälpsam personal. Vi är toppennöjda.
