Shine Studios

La gentilezza dei proprietari. Ogni giorno c'era un piccolo pensiero per noi (frutta, dolci, assaggio di piatti tipici). La pulizia del monolocale, le pulizie vengono fatte giornalmente e cambio lenzuola e asciugamani ogni 2 giorni. Il monolocale è attrezzato con microonde, 2 piastre ad induzione, bollitore, tostapane, macchina per caffè con filtri, spremiagrumi, tritatutto, mai visto un assortimento così completo.

Niente

Totul

Πολύ καλή τοποθεσία. Κοντά στη θάλασσα. Χώρος στάθμευσης. Εξωτερικός χώρος πολύ περιποιημένος και καθαρός. Η βεράντα στον κήπο υπέροχη. Καθημερινό καθάρισμα. Συσκευές κουζίνας και εξοπλισμός.

Ασήμαντα πράγματα όχι άξια αναφοράς.

Host gentilissima, ci ha coccolati. Lo studio ha tutto quello che serve ed è molto vicino alla cittadina.

Arredamento non di nostro gusto, ma comunque molto funzionale

Tesis doğa içerisinde bahçeli,bahçe içinde çeşitli meyveler vardı.Oda gayet büyük ve temizdi.Havası temiz,sesiz kafa dinlemelik bir yer.Tesisin sahipleri güler yüzlü,samimi,yardım severler.Bir akşam geldiğimde bana turta yapmıştı çok beğendim.Samimiyetlerinden dolayı teşekkür ederim.

Das Apartment ist sehr gut ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Vaso ist eine tolle und aufmerksame Gastgeberin. Die Lage ist ruhig, aber man kann zu Fuß in den Ort und zum Strand gehen. Oder einfach in dem schönen Garten sitzen. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und werden wieder kommen.

Es war alles in Ordnung.

From the moment we arrived and was met by the lovely Vasso, to the time that we left, a week later, we felt as if we were old, dear friends, being treated as such. We have been coming to Greece (17 islands and counting) for nearly 30 years and almost always staying in studios / apartments. I can honestly say this was the nicest, best equipped studio we have stayed in. Everything worked as it should and the quality of furnishings, linen, towels etc. was excellent. We particularly liked the multiple aspect windows and doors, all with mosquito screens, that allowed the wind to funnel through. For me as long as I have a fridge that keeps my beer cold and a balcony on which to read my book, I am happy. Caroline however has a different set of criteria, and she was really impressed with bathroom lights, mirrors, dressing table lights, ironing board (!), bed linen on and on. Set in lovely and quite extensive gardens and surrounded by fields, gave Shine studios a really relaxed feel. Two routes to Skala Kallonis, both about 10 mins walk, nearest beach 12 mins walk. We will definitely return, Vasso is a wonderful host and typifies the Filoxenia spirit, she is also very Green Fingered !!

Absolutely nothing

Quiet, centrally located on the island.

Nothing.

Erg schoon, elke dag schoongemaakt, bijzonder vriendelijke gastvrouw, prima appartement, niet heel groot, maar van alle gemakken voorzien. Fijn balkon.

Enigzins dicht bij de doorgaande weg, niet super storend.

Sehr tolle Unterkunft an ruhiger Lage in Gehdistanz zu Skala Kalloni. Vaso ist eine grossartige Gastgeberin und hat unseren Aufenthalt mit selbstgebackenen Süssigkeiten extra versüsst. Vielen Dank, wir kommen gerne wieder!

De sympathieke gastvrouw, de lekkere verrassing alle dagen, dat er zoals in een hotel dagelijks wordt gepoetst, schone handdoeken en lakens Prima muggenwering en gebouw. Mooie rustige ligging tussen fluitende vogels

Om zelf te koken is het wat basic (2 plaatjes). Alsook zou een (gedeelde) wasmachine voor ons nuttig zijn geweest.

Excellent central location from which to explore the whole island (during my trip I rented a car). With Skala Kallonis nearby, there are plenty of good restaurants and a nice beach at walking distance. The host was very nice, every day the room was cleaned well, and most days the host left some traditional greek treats for me, which were really good! All windows were fitted with mosquito netting, so I had no problems with any mosquitos during my stay :). Also reasonably close to the Kalloni salt pans, which are an excellent location for watching Flamingo's, Pelicans, and other birds, especially nice during spring migration (which was slowing down when I was there at the end of May).

De extra hapjes die klaar lagen na de reiniging van de kamer iedere dag! Maar natuurlijk ook gewoon de ligging, heel centraal en makkelijk bereikbaar, parkeerplaats bij de accommodatie. Aardige gastvrouw en nette locatie, ruimte bij de locatie om te ontspannen en alles netjes functionerend en proper. Het was ook goed te doen om van de accommodatie te lopen naar het strand en het dorpje om een hapje te eten/drinken.

Niets wat ik me kan bedenken.

Die schönen sauberen Studios. Und die persönliche Betreuung das ist etwas das man heute nicht mehr oft findet. Einfach toll, Danke👍👍👍👍

Das der Urlaub so schnell vorbei war.

Excellent hospitality. The location is ideal, as it is in the center of the island, while at the same time the studios are situated in a quiet area but still close to shops, restaurants, etc. Mrs. Vasso’s hospitality was impeccable, with daily cleaning, making you feel truly at home

Amazing calm place.

You must have a car for reaching the place.

Αρχικά είναι ένα πλήρως εξοπλισμένο Studio σε ένα ειδυλλιακό περιβάλλον μέσα στο πράσινο , τα κλινοσκεπάσματα καθώς και το στρώμα του κρεβατιού είναι άριστα!!!!

Δεν υπάρχει κάτι το οποίο μας δυσαρεστείσε στη διαμονή μας.

Fantastic! Simply fantastic! The host was so lovely and the fruit bowl upon arrival was a really nice touch. The following day, she also left some other sweets. We were really surprised to also find the room cleaned every day, with a change of sheets and towels too. The property itself was impeccably clean with a well-stocked kitchen. We really enjoyed the balcony in the evening. It is such a restful place. The location is ideal, within walking distance of Skala Kallonis if you don't want to drive in the evening. It is also a short drive to Kalloni. It's the perfect location on the island if you want to explore more of western Lesbos. The dog is an absolute doll!!! Thank you for such a great stay!

We had to leave! :( We could have easily stayed longer!

Clean and tidy studio. The host was very friendly and welcoming.

There is no breakfast, but that is also no problem at all. We made our breakfast shopping from a market that is like 2-3 km away by car. 3 big supermarkets side by side. The quietness was the best and because there is no breakfast to catch, you can wake up anytime you like. The room was big enough and very well equipped for eating and so. The balcony was also a nice place for resting. Beautiful countryside view from the balcony. The owner lady and her husband were very friendly, helpful and smiling all the time. We enjoyed it very much. The area is peaceful.

Actually, nothing at all.

Vasso is an incredible host who truly cares about her guests, probably the best host I have ever met. The room was super clean, spacious and well-maintained. It has everything you need for a short or longer stay. The area is quiet and very calm. Its about a 10-15 minute walk to the center and beach. Here you can find restaurants, café and a car renting shop which is where we rented our car. The people are nice and helpful in this area and its a perfect place to be if you want to discover the whole island of Lesbos, since you can reach all parts of the island from Skala Kalloni.

Nothing. It was an amazing stay.

Very well-equipped apartment in a peaceful location with nice gardens. Had everything we needed over our 10-day stay. The apartment is well located for visiting all parts of the island, and not too far from local shops and restaurants. I would particularly recommend the apartment to fellow birdwatchers, it's not far from the Kalloni saltpans and birds can even be seen from the balcony (Scops Owl can be heard calling every night and even seen, with a bit of luck). Our host was wonderful and left nice treats such as cakes and biscuits for us nearly every day! She cleaned, tidied, made the bed, etc every day while we were out (even Sunday, which was supposed to be her day off!)

Nothing that we didn't like!

The host could not have been more friendly and welcoming. So many kind gestures throughout our stay. The room was kept spotlessly clean and was very comfortable. The location was perfect for us. We definitely plan to come and stay again.

The hospitality...especially the cake. 10 minutes walk into village...perfect for digesting your dinner.

I would have to try really hard to find anything.

Shine Studios is located in a very beautiful quiet area with great views. The studio was very comfortable and clean, we had everything that we needed for our stay. Our host, Mrs Vasso was so helpful and kind, she helped us to feel at home 100%. As a bonus she offered us fruits from the garden, and we could taste her home made cake as well. Thank you so much for this great hospitality, we will definitely return.

We liked everything.

The studio was clean, quiet and well set up.

It's out of town so walking to a restaurant is not a simple option.

Vasso is wonderful host.We felt like we were at home.Everything was above our expectations.She served us the food she made herself for four days.She touched us with her gift when we left.We wil miss her and her kind husband.This hotel has become our second home now.We wil come again.

Nothing.

Super friendly host. Nice clean air conditioned room. Just a few minutes walk from the centre of Skala Kalloni.

We only stayed for one night because of a mix-up in our bookings. We wish we could have stayed longer. This is an exceptionally well equipped studio. Not your usual 2 plates, 2 bowls, 2 forks, etc setup. Loads of cutlery, dishes, appliances. You would actually be able to cook a real meal here. Comfortable beds, great shower, nice balcony and the unit we were in (no.4) had an amazing breeze that kept the temperature comfortable without air con. Well done!

Nothing

Everything was perfect. Excellent location to explore the whole island. The room was spacious, comfortable, very clean and well equipped. The room was cleaned every single day. We even got small treats like fresh fruit and homemade dessert. Good private parking. Excellent communication with the host. Would definitely recommend and go back.

Friendly and accommodating host. We liked the quiet, semi rural location within walking distance of restaurants and shops. The well maintained garden is a lovely setting.

Nothing comes to mind!

The studios were just perfect - spacious, very well equipped, linen change evry other day, quiet location. Vasso, the hostess was very warm and friendly.

nothing at all to dislike

Such a lovely place to stay! The apartment was spotless and very well equipped. Vasso was there to greet me and show me around and I was impressed from the start. The room was cleaned daily with fresh bedclothes and towels. Vasso also left me some delicious treats everyday! I can’t fault Shine Studios.

There was nothing I didn’t like.

Lovely apartment with everything you need and more. Owner was extremely kind and helpful.

Nothing

Kind host, clean and spacious room.

Shine studioa was a lovely place to stay. The hosts made us feel very welcome and werw always around in case we needed anything. The room was well equipped and clean.

Beautiful clean apartment, well equipped kitchen, kind and friendly hosts.

Location was great, short walk to town and beach. Comfortable room. Enjoyed having a balcony to use.

Shine Studios is our go-to place in Skala Kaloni. We used to stay there frequently before we bought a house nearby. This weekend we stayed while noisy and dusty work was taking place in our own home. We were warmly welcomed to the spotlessly clean and well equipped studio. The bed was more comfortable than my own and we were serenaded by nightingales.

Friendly owners very helpful. Treats provided everyday. Room cleaned daily and spotless.

The studio had everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. Everything was cleaned daily with fresh towels and sheets every other day. Every so often home made cakes or biscuits would be left for us to come home to. We had a lovely sunny terrace and to hear the nightingale every morning and the sheep's bells jangling as they ran past was wonderful. It was not far to walk into Skala Kalloni with its tavernas and shop and pharmacy. I just love Lesvos and have been many times. I will be back!

Nothing

I stayed at Shine Studios during a one-week birding trip to Lesbos. I didn't spend much time in the apartment during the day, usually leaving by 6.30 am and returning around 8 pm, so I only really showered, slept, and made a bit of breakfast in the morning. The host Vaso was really nice and spoke very good English. The apartment was very clean and had everything I needed (a comfy bed, clean shower/bathroom, filter coffee machine, fridge, etc). The complimentary cakes that greeted me each evening were a lovely treat. I'd definitely stay again.

Not specific to Shine Studios, but there's a lot of feral dogs in Skala Kallonis and you can hear them barking at night (although most sounded quite distant - they were never right outside the apartments), which is a bit of a distraction if you're a light sleeper. It's a 10-minute walk into the town down some dark roads (with verges), so maybe take a head torch.

Location & facilities in the apartment were excellent. Host went above & beyond by providing not only daily cleaning but gift of local produce & baking!

The room was very clean and comfortable bed. Wonderful power shower and very good netting on all the windows to keep out bug/insects. The host was very friendly and gave us many little "gifts" of fruit from her garden, traditional sweets and homemade jam.

Nothing

Ιδανικό για στιγμές χαλάρωσης κ ξεκούρασης,μακριά από φασαριες με πολύ όμορφη ατμόσφαιρα.
