Antonis Apartments - (Accommodation in Kalamaki)

Kim H           

we booked our holiday to antonis 2 was given antonis 1 room 8 struggled to open door that much sand in the door tracks,entered a room to say a basic room is a understatement ,the room hadnt been cleaned before we arrived toilet bin full from last occupant brown dirty stains on the bed sheets sand all on the floor,the room was not cleaned for 2 weeks we stayed there,enter the cleaner well thats what they call her,change of bed sheets ,given a pillow full of blood this was suppose to be a new clean pillow,gave the pillow to the rep and he changed it for me with a good smile,first night in bed the bed fell to bits sleept on the floor for the first four nights,finally got the rep to change the matress,hey whats your problem mate with the bed asks the rep,stinks like sleeping on bricks so i got a new matress.the bed was held together with beer mats jammed down the ends,
enter cleaning day,returned from a great day at the beach,hey clean sheets,oh no another pillow full of blood the cleaner loves me look my pillow case looks like freddy crugger put this one on full of slash marks maybe she likes me.still the sand and rubbish are still on the floor.meet the rep morning ,right let me sell you some trips,
right we book the smugglers cove trip for our first trip,great the pictures look great sail there get a couple of hours on the beach yes yes yes ,we arrive at smugglers cove wife says cannot wait to get on the beach me neither love,then the boat stops ok people you have to swim to the beach, sorry did they say swim 150 yards to the beach we cannot swim,asked by a couple of old ladies did they say swim yes they said swim.asked the rep did you say swim yes its ok we have life jackets your joking what about the ladies with little kids in push chairs its ok if the life jacket dosnt go round the push chair they will have to stay on board they will enjoy that i said.finally got the wife after her tears to risk the jacket on the beach after 30 mins
of asking her to risk it.seeing the sunset rep the next day alastir you didnt tell us we had to risk our lifes to swim into the beach.
oh didnt it drop you on the beach off he went.next cruise the island we are promised a deserted beach no swimming to the beach this time im promised.we board the ship settle down wating for other people to board after 30 mins the rep informs us she as put us on the wrong ship sorry next ship good start i say,.not one to moan i we transfer ships,off we go 31/2 hours to get there the beach was packed with people still we didnt have to swim this time got some good food. back on board ,announcment well ladies and gentlemen please get your stuff together we will be in port in twenty mins,31/2 hours to get there 20 mins back hows that work.still we enjoyd it.
next zante shopping what a joke 30 euros,for a five min bus ride the rep tells you shop till you drop with great bargains after 3 hours we didnt find one good shop selling anything you cannot get in kalamaki shops and its cheaper in kalamaki shops.antonis bbq he dosnt tell you they give you the food its not pick or help yourself.next trip zakfari
this was the best of the lot fantastic day thankyou to lee our driver
and rest of the gang great day would recommened this trip to anyone
informative great sights great fun great day noisy michaels day fantastic.food the best place to eat in kalamaki is the light house
great food veronica thank you to you and your staff.overall great holiday but the antonis appartments room 8 was dirty and basic isnt the word to describe this room.the antonis family were friendly and good .the pool was good also only the rep tells you its only to be used at 9 till 9 .we seen on sevral occasions them putting chemicals in the pool when people were still useing the pool the rep said the chemicals could make you ill so keep out the pool ,i didnt see them telling the kids to stop useing the pool when putting the chemicals in well before 9pm.people pay good money to stay in decent accomadation enjoy themselfs but the accomadation was the worst i have ever stayed in sorry it wasnt basic it was a xxxx never cleaned
the cleaner a joke.the bedding a disgrace.i dont miss the bed every time you moved it rattled and woke you up.should you find the wifes earings she lost off the dressing table please send them on to us please.the yellow book i would say put your views in this book as most seemed to be negative about the accomadation.kalamaki is a beautiful place friendly people great food great beach,airport well
its just organised chaos sorry not organised just chaos.
