Amfi
(Apartments in Kardamena)
 |
| |||||||||
We just got back from Kos at the weekend, staying in Amfi's. The appartment is basic and functional, mostly quiet, apart from the times the odd group of people would walk past singing/shouting, but this wasn't too much of a probelm at all for the 2 weeks we were there as it was approaching end of season. There isn't much in the way of facilities in the appartment, exact amounts of cutlery etc for the occupants, towels included are hand-towels rather than full size bathtowels, but these were cleaned every day, apart from changeover days (Sat/Wed). Beds were comfortable, but the noise from one of them creaking whenever whoever was on it moved slightly was unexpected (but you got used to it).
The lack of pool isn't a problem, as the Blue pool round the corner is excellent, the staff there very friendly, and food/drinks very sensibly priced and nice. A reception would have been a benefit, as it was sometimes hard to catch the owners if you wanted to speak to them - they are generally about at 12-00 until 14-00 if you need them, although you will need to speak greek, or be very good at charades.
The rep (Rob) was a bit of a tw@t, but this is probably because we didn't book any excursions, everything seemed like it was a personal tragedy that he had to do something/answer your question..
Would go back, and stay there, although would hire a fan this time, as it was crazy hot despite being end of season. | ||||||||||

I have being back from Kos 2 days and already I want to go back. These apartments are the best I have ever stayed in, in Greece. Great location and very big for 2 people. Why not try them I would use them again.

6 of us stayed at Amfi from 29th July til 13th August 2006. We found the apartments to be clean and safe and central to bars and resteraunts. There is no air con so hiring a fan is advisable this is cheap to do and fans are available at most supermarkets for a small deposit.
The bathrooms are basic the shower is handheld but you get used to it.
The Rep who we named Rob the Knob really was ok. Go to the Blue Pool during the day time the staff are really friendly and theres pleanty of sun loungers and pool is large.
Beware of the cleaner she is small and greek speaks no English apart form Ok, No problem and Bye Bye! You usually hear her before you see her as she chats away in Greek to the old man who owns the apartments they are both around 100 yr old (at least!) | ||||||||||

Stayed for 2 weeks with 16 friends and took over most of the apartment block.we broke lots of stuff, threw lots of food and straws, had a greek toga party in the cave room down stairs and had a mexican meal on the roof! and in room 2 there is definately room for 3 beds in a row, one in the kitchen is unnecesary!Rob the rep was a bit of an arse but only because we didnt want to go on any excursions.seems like a very friendly and safe place just round the corner from the main square and the medical centre.....we were in both places ALOT of the time!as well as the louis supermarket and the legendary muchies kebabee!the kool pool up the road is great with friendly bar staff but the kitchen in the apartments is very basic. we love you AMFI!!!!!!

| Two friends and me stayed at amfi for two weeks in June 2004, it is very basic but ok if you’re looking for somewhere to lay your head. There is no pool or reception and trying to find a rep to speak to is all most impossible. Be warned we were robbed while we were asleep this has happened twice before at the amfi so make sure you don’t leave the patio door open during the day or at night. | ||||||||||

| The apartment was spotlessly clean but low in facilities eg exact number of plates cutlery etc to match the number of occupants. the proprietor and wife were friendly and halpful but spoke little english. The apartment was cleaned/towels changed every other day, sometimes every day. the location is in a quiet part but only a couple of hundered yards from the lively parts of town | ||||||||||
