Iris Apartments

Das Apartment I. bietet alles, was man sich als Unterkunft nur wünschen kann. Die Ausstattung ist neu, modern und sehr geschmackvoll. Es fehlte nichts. Es gab sogar Shampoo, Duschgel und Körperlotion, auch eine Spielesammlung. Die Klimaanlage funktionierte einwandfrei, schalldichte Fenster ermöglichen einen ruhigen Schlaf. Die Nähe zum Strand, Minimarket (schliesst allerdings schon um den 20.9.) ist nur in wenigen Minuten zu erreichen. Die Kommunikation mit Nikos war prompt und herzlich. Ohne Auto ist man allerdings aufgeschmissen. Das Auto kann direkt auf dem Grundstück geparkt werden. Lediglich ein Ausflug nach Korfu Stadt ist mit dem Bus bequemer. Es gibt eine Strandbar um die Ecke und sehr gutes Essen am Ende des Strandes. Das Apartment ist mit eines der besten, die ich auf meinen Europareisen bewohnt habe. Wir erwägen nächstes Jahr wiederzukommen!

Es gab Nichts zu beanstanden!

When we arrived, the apartment was lovely and even had several extra touches that we didn’t have during our previous stay. The kitchen was fully stocked with cooking supplies (non sticky pots), and utensils, along with thoughtful additions such as olive oil, vinegar, spices, coffee, tea, paper towels, and dish detergent. There was also a generous supply of shampoo, shower gel, and hand soap, which was a very nice touch. Hand sanitizer, bucket for washing the clothes. Games and cards for entertainment. Everything was clean. One of us became a little unwell during the stay, so having a first-aid kit with medication for fever, as well as Strepsils and tea for a sore throat, was extremely helpful and much appreciated. You also have allergy medication and after insect bite cream. The owner came by once regarding a minor issue with the water pressure. He was very nice and polite and took care of the problem immediately. We communicated mainly through WhatsApp with the management company responsible for the apartment, and they were responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, the apartment itself is very cute, has a pleasant and welcoming feeling, and the location is excellent, with the beach just steps away and beautiful sunsets. The only downside of the apartment itself was the bed, not comfortable for us. The mattress is quite thin and bouncy, and when one person moves, the other person feels almost every movement. The bed is also somewhat squeaky. As a result, none of us managed to sleep through an entire night during our stay. Improving the mattress would make a significant difference to the overall experience.

A note about outside noise — unrelated to the owner We want to emphasize that the following is an external issue and is not the fault of the owner or management company. The area around the apartment is quite noisy both during the day and at night. There is a restaurant/club called Pazzuzu directly across from the apartment. A number of Indian staff members from the restaurant regularly gather in the parking area directly underneath the apartment, often talking on their phones or playing Indian music. This can be quite noticeable inside the apartment, particularly late at night. There is also a neighboring building connected to the apartment, with a balcony directly beside our apartment’s balcony. Many of the Indian staff members seem to stay there,there’s very frequent circulation of people, noise resembling moving/dragging furniture, banging or slamming the door, and on many occasions they stayed up late on the balcony, either talking on the speaker for hours or watching stuff on their phone which disturbed quite evenings while we were trying to watch a movie and fall asleep, we heard them more than our own tv. We made few attempts to resolve this issue politely but they continued to be ignorant. Pazuzu also played the same music every single day during our stay, sound got quite annoying . Early in the morning, delivery trucks arrive at the restaurant/club across the street and park directly underneath the balcony. They can remain there for around 30 minutes with their engines running, creating quite a loud early-morning wake-up call. In addition, there is a recurring alarm from one of the properties from far end of the beach that goes on/off both day and night, approximately every 30 seconds (unfortunately we heard this all over the beach every day too).

October was perfect to stay cause it was silent, no people around and we were walking to the beach bear foot The apartment was comfortable for us, 3 friends Kitchen was very well equipped In October you need a car to stay there cause there are no proper shops in the walking distance around in the whole area of Glyfada

No spectacular view from the balcony You see the night club and other buildings, not the sea At least from our floor But it didn’t bother us 2 minutes and you are at the beach

Das Apartment war OK, geräumig, mit gut ausgestattete Küche. Die Lage auch sehr gut, fast direkt am Strand.

Das Bad mit billig Duschvorhang das nach dem Duschen das halbe Bad unser Wasser stand. Es gibt leider nur telefonischen Kontakt. Mann muss selber putzen, sauber machen da es den Service nicht gibt und das für den gesamten Aufenthalt nur den einen Satz Hand-Badetücher gibt. Das haben wir zum ersten Mal erlebt. Zum Glück konnte ich mich in der Landessprache verständigen und nach einem Telefonat wurden uns nachträglich frische Tücher geliefert. Die Arbeiter von der Bar wohnen direkt daneben und da die WM angefangen hat haben sie jeden Abend Fussball auf dem Balkon angeschaut, war halt ein bisschen lauter.
