How do you describe perfection with one word?… Pillbox! This may have been one of the best holidays I've ever had… and I've seen a bit of the world😄
The apartments are even nicer than the pictures can tell. They are very well equipped, exquisitely decorated and extremely clean. I really felt at home during my two-week stay in August. I didn't cook much but there is everything you need to prepare a full meal if you want. The bathroom has a good size with a very powerful shower as well as excellent lights. The bedroom is very spacious with a real comfy bed, a large wardrobe with a safe box, iron/board, hairdryer and plenty of hangers.
The location is unbeatable!… supermarkets, shops, restaurants, everything is within a 5-10 minutes walk. Try Anemos just around the corner for the best fish on the island or Alexander right at the beginning of the port promenade… both have excellent food, outstanding service, incredible views and great wine!
You can enjoy the peace and quiet of the private beach during the whole day and if you want something more lively you can always find other beaches to spend the day in Kardamena… but you won't need it!
As other users have mentioned, Manos is one of a kind! He is so professional and attentive, nothing is too much for him. He would help you with whatever you may need. Also the other guests at the time of my stay were very nice and polite and so was Nella, the lady in charge of the cleaning… always with a big bright smile on her face.
My advise: get up early and admire the sunrise… it's one of the best spots on this Earth to do it.
Greece never disappoints… people are so kind and welcoming that you cannot help but falling in love with the place.
Ευχαριστώ πολύJoanna from United Kingdom (10/10)
We stayed at the Pillbox for 3 nights and could not fault it. The rooms are lovely with beautiful sea views and everything you need. The location is fantastic, right on the beach with access to free sun loungers. It's only a short walk into the centre; shops, bars, restaurants etc.
The owner Emmanuel is brilliant, incredibly helpful and nothing was too much for him.
We will definitely return and highly recommend the Pillbox for a relaxing break.Treacy from Guernsey (10/10)

Matt from United Kingdom (9/10)
Emmanuel was a super friendly and diligent host. Nothing was too much bother; an all round great guy. The location is perfect and by far the favourite location we have ever stayed at in the village. The sun loungers were great and there was easy access in and out of the sea via the steps. The bed was very comfortable the best we have known in Greece. The shower had great water pressure and temperature control and it didn't flood which can be an issue at some properties. The level of kitchenware available was adequate but you wouldn't be in a position to do some 'real' cooking if required. A lovely touch were some goodies in the fridge on arrival….which proves that hosts obviously value their customers and take pride in looking after them. A great stay!!
