Great set of apartments in quiet Frangokastello. Clean, comfortable and close to beautiful beaches, within a few minutes walk to the closest - all with lovely safe swimming in clear waters (though reef shoes are handy as some are pebbly in areas.)
Clean rooms, a lovely pool to cool off in and the most helpful staff. Antonis and Caterina looked after us so well, from lovely breakfasts and lunches, to organising bicycles and taxis (we don't drive), educating us on local history and recommending fun things for us to do on our short stay.
We always say we'd never go back to the same place, but are already planning a return with friends.
Our room overlooked the mountains and we could also see the sea on the other side, perfect! Would definitely choose Kallicrates next time. We didn't use the cooker for food, just tea, but basic self catering equipment provided.
Note: If you like parties, and a busy nightlife, this isn't the place for you! Frangokastello is perfect for relaxing and exploring and Kallicrates is in the perfect location to do that. 15/2- mins walk down to the fort, with lovely tavernas dotted along the route! The bus to chora sfakion also stops right by the hotel (no bus stop, just some waving required)
