White House Apartments - (Accommodation in Kalamaki)

Had a brilliant time staying here! Apts were cleaned nearly every day and during our 1 week there our towels were changed twice which was pretty good. We stayed on the top floor which is newer than the bottom 2 floors and they were very clean but basic. We hired a fan for 1 week which was quite cheap, 12 euros (£8) and I advise hiring one because it gets so stuffy at night! Say hi to Athina and Michael who look after the apts, they're lovely even if they can't speak much English! The pool at the Two Brothers is very small but we found a really nice pool nearby called 'John & Joys'.

Prices were expensive for Kalamaki but about the same as London. We tried the salmon which was lovely (but too many bones) and the vegetarian spaghetti which we found much too oily. I've tasted better from a jar! Lovely setting though but didn't go back due to quality of food.

One of our favourite restaurants by far! We were lucky enough to get a table straight away because EVERY table was taken both times we went there. We tried lamb kapama which was a huge leg of lamb in a tomato sauce ( quite nice ),chicken souvlaki which was tasty but the best by far was the beef stifado. Tender chunks of beef stewed in a delicious sauce served with roast spuds and veggies, I'm salivating just typing this! Instead of ordering normal bread, order garlic bread instead as it's so tasty and I noticed that most people ordered it. Prices were very good too!
