Broadly I agree with the first, very positive review. The studios are very pleasant and well equipped; the place is quiet and relaxing; there's a beautiful little pool; nice views. It's quite a small establishment, tucked in on the edge of the village of Avdhou - maybe a little smaller and closer to the village than I had imagined. The village is pleasant and very friendly with a couple of tavernas and a Byzantine chapel. So no real complaints: it's a lovely place. From the comments book in the office it's clear that everyone who stays there loves it and that the manager Manolis is a key attraction! He does just about everything himself. The only thing I would add is that, while very friendly, he is quite laid back - a bit of a character - and doesn't do anything in a hurry!

At the risk of gushing, I can't recommend Avdou enough! We were some of the first guests to stay at Avdou villas after a takeover of the hotel by Greek hotel chain, Maris. On arrival, we were upgraded to the largest house in the complex since we were the only guests there at the time. The house was fantastic, with large, bright rooms, and balconies/terraces to either side looking over olive fields and the generous-sized pool. The best thing about Avdou, though, was the service! I hope the Maris corporation realise what a gem they have in site manager Manolis, who has studied tourism in Manchester, speaks fluent English and also has a lively sense of humour. The maid service provided by "Miss Maria" is discrete, friendly, but very very quiet (she speaks no English). To say that we felt welcome is very much an understatement. If you stay at Avdou, don't hesitate to ask Manolis to provide dinner: everything was delicious and extremely inexpensive. We left Avdou vowing to return... more
