We stayed at the Athina studios from 20th june 2004 for 2 weeks. It was a lovely holiday and the appartment was basic but the maid came in to wash the floor and empty our bins every day, and changed the sheets at least 5 times in 2 weeks. Having read the other comments about the friendliness of the owners we had to laugh. The young couple were friendly and at first we thought that the old man was miserable but decided that it was a break down in commication as he speaks so little english he finds it hard, but yes the odd smile wouldnt go a miss!! Just buy him a bottle of amstral and hell be fine!! If you havnt been to argassi before and want both amazing food and nice friendly staff, then dont go without visiting Carrissmo. They do a lovely english breakfast and the main meals are the best we tasted in all the greek islands. The waiters Doni and Angelo were so nice especially with our 2 children, and even bought our little girl a necklace on her last day!

Carissimo was by far our favourite place to eat. We went every morning for a lovely english breakfast and had a few evening meals too. In the evenings my daughter and i were given flowers and turkish delights which was really sweet.. little thoughts go a long way. The food was a little bit dearer than some other places but the quailty of food and service was greater so it wasnt an issue. The waiters Doni and Angelo were so nice, as soon as we walked in they would put our son in a highchair and put an extra cushion on the chair for our daughter. They were very kind to our kids, giving them biscuits and sweets and making them laugh! They even bought my daughter a lovely necklace on her last day. I wouldnt definatly go back again and again.
