Exactly how advertised with better service

We have just got back after a week stay at Gelli Apartments- booked a last minute holiday and we were very surprised at how friendly and lovely the staff were especially Pete! Lovely atmosphere around the apartments and all staff were very helpful with knowledge of what to do. Pete was extremely helpful in telling us what we shouldn't pay above and what we should do for trips etc I would suggest renting a quad bike, car or moped to get around the island more however about a 10minute walk from the main town so not necessary. Would throughly recommend this as a place to stay, had a great time with all staff and other guests making it even more memorable.

Struttura in ottima posizione (10min a piedi da kos town). Struttura rinnovata da poco, camere moderne con possibilita di aria condizionata. Il proprierario Pama della struttura è molto accogliente e disponibile, da ottimi consigli su come muoversi sull isola e in particolare sui locali (ristoranti/pub) da frequentare per evitare ristorazione turistiche. Consigliamo questa struttura, ottima qualita/prezzo. Noi abbiamo sempre seguito i suoi consigli e ci siamo trovati benissimo!

Absolut empfehlenswert!

Unsere Zeit im Gelli Appartment war sehr schön. Der Inhaber Pana ist sehr fürsorglich und freundlich. Nach unserer Ankunft hat er sich viel Zeit genommen, um uns Tipps und Must-To-Dos für unseren Aufenthalt auf Kos zu geben. Gäste können ihn jederzeit um Hilfe bitten. Insgesamt ist das Personal sehr nett. Die Außenbar am Pool lädt zu langen Nächten in griechischer Atmosphäre ein. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt und grün. Die Ausstattung des Appartment mit Küche und Geschirr ist entspricht dem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, das Bad ist modern gehalten. Fazit: Die Unterkunft ist sehr zu empfehlen und entspricht sogar mehr als dem erwarteten Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

essenziale

appartamenti essenziali con l'occorrente per due persone, frigo piccolissimo mancavano anche le staffe per bloccare le bottiglie, di conseguenza spazio ancora piu' ridotto. a 15 minuti a piedi dal centro di kos. comodo il parcheggio e il wi fi abbastanza buono. appartam sempre esposto al sole con porta in alluminio e vetro quindi rovente, abbiamo chiesto l'aria condizionata e ci e' stata fatta pagare 5 euro al giorno in piu'. rapporto qualita' prezzo per gli standard greci ok

Tolle Appartementanlage!

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt. Die Appartements liegen stadtnah auf einer Anhöhe mit schönem Blick auf die Berge und Kos-Stadt. Es ist nur ein kleiner Spaziergang von etwa 20 Minuten in die Stadt. Die Anlage wird ganz liebevoll gepflegt zudem werden die Appartements täglich gereinigt – alles ist tip-top sauber. Der Inhaber Panagiotis, kurz "Pana" hat uns bei der Ankunft direkt auf dem Parkplatz mit Wasser zur Erfrischung empfangen. Wir wurden direkt in unser Zimmer gebracht und er hat uns ein paar wertvolle Tipps mit auf den Weg gegeben. Wir haben uns sehr gut von ihm betreut gefühlt. Er pflegt den Umgang mit den Gästen sehr, fragt jeden Tag nach, ob alles in Ordnung ist! Die Privatsphäre wird aber ebenso respektiert. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig, die Einrichtung (Bett, Kommode, Küche) landestypisch und schon etwas älter, was uns in keinerlei Hinsicht gestört hat... Das Bad ist modern. Kurzum: die Appartements sind ein toller Ausgangspunkt für sämtliche Unternehmungen. Einen Mietwagen würden wir hierfür empfehlen! Die nahegelegene Taverne Ampavris sollte unbedingt besucht werden. Auch das Restaurant Broadway in der Stadt ist sehr zu empfehlen. Wir werden definitiv wieder kommen – Pana ist ein sehr guter Gastgeber gewesen. ευχαριστώ :)
