There is a small family church behind the aparthotel which is very beautiful but from what I can remember the family does not allow it to be used publicly for weddings.

I stopped at The Mavrikos 2 years ago as a single parent with a 4 year old son and found it very good and would recommend anyone to go there. There are a lot of comments about the swimming pool but there is a kids pool which is fantastic, and the kids club is really great. Also it is up a hill but this is only about 200 metres so is not that bad. It is the other end of town to Popeyes.

My family and I are staying in these apartments at the beginning of June 2003 and I was wondering whereabouts in Tsilivi they are. Last time I stayed at the Mavrikos Aparthotel which is at the opposite end of town to Popeyes. Is this place up the hill near the planet bar? or round the street towards the beach? I would appreciate any help.

I do not like to sound like a moaner but our week at the Santy Maria was not as good as expected. The trivial rules and regulations were quite annoying and the staff are never there! Tina behind the bar was quite nice until she showed up with a fat lip and would not talk to anybody! I asked for extra sheets after 3 days as we all had an upset tummy and the children had an accident and they never arrived so we had no sheets for the last 4 nights, they left our bin for 3 days which was appalling when you think you cannot flush paper down the loo. I tried to be patient but the standards were not a patch on all the other places I have stayed at in Greek islands. The good thing was the pool, lovely and clean and fabulous for kids and adults. The cockerel and the barking dog. did wake us up several times in the night but what can you expect on holiday! I definitely would not come back here as there are much nicer places in Tsilivi.
