A budget-friendly aparthotel set inland near Tragaki, a short drive from Alykes beach, this suits families who want a peaceful base with a kitchenette and a small pool rather than a full-scale resort. It is unpretentious and good value, ideal if a hire car is already part of the plan.

A sound budget choice for families with a hire car who want space, a kitchen and quiet over resort facilities.
The rooms
Simple family apartments and studios with kitchenette, most comfortable for up to 4, set around a quiet pool in the countryside near Tragaki; a good pick for families who prioritise budget and space over polish.
