Ledakis Studios

Wonderful
Traveller Type: Traveling as Couple
  : The studios are well-signposted, so easy to find, and you can park your car right by the entrance to your apartment. They are in a good location, close to the shops, cafes, restaurants, etc., and have a sea view in front and a mountain view behind. The owners are friendly and helpful. The apartments have a double bed, a single bed, two bedside tables, a wardrobe, a table, a sofa(-bed) and A/C. The kitchen area has full-size fridge and stove, an electric kettle, a coffee maker, dish detergent and sponge, and a drying rack on the draining board. There is plenty of crockery, cutlery, pots and pans, etc. The bathroom is nicely appointed with sliding glass shower doors. The front patio has a table and two chairs plus a clothes drying rack; the back patio has two chairs. There are insect screens on the bathroom window and front patio doors. The wifi worked well. We stayed for six nights and the apartment (but not the patio) was cleaned after three, and the bed linens and towels changed then also. The owners were prompt in dealing with issues (a replacement light bulb was provided as soon as I requested one). Their on-site restaurant has good food at very reasonable prices, and we were given free dessert and raki. We were also gifted a bottle of raki upon departure.
  : There was nothing we didnt like, but the following comments may be useful to some: You do hear noise from adjacent apartments (people), and from outside (cats and dogs). There were mosquitoes around even in April. There is no TV in the apartments. No soap, shampoo, etc. is provided, and there is no shelf in the bathroom. Also, in our apartment, the hot and cold taps were reversed (so at first we thought there was no hot water). The kitchen had no dish towel, no cutting board or bread knife. The kitchen sink has no hot tap, only cold water. For Frangokastello you need your own transport, but that also makes it a good place for a quiet break.

  : Frangocastelo was just the place we were looking out of the touristic paths. Do not expect luxury staff but If you like calm places close to nature - that`s your place. You only hear cicadas and waves. Perfect beach in about 5 mins walking. Supermarkets, tavernas - everything in walking distance. Rooms are very clean, mosquito net (actully no insects), nice terrace where you can relax watching the sea. And now about the food in the taverna - one of best we tried in the region- wild fish, homemade food- fantastic! A feel-like-home place, we felt not like guests but like family or friends. Thanks to Giorgos an family :)
