I had a mixed experience at Astra Village & Suites. The first nine nights in the upgraded junior suite were fantastic-spacious, clean, and with a lovely sea view. Unfortunately, the last night in the original studio was a disappointment due to the unpleasant smell and cramped space. Overall, the staff were friendly and the location was excellent, but the experience was marred by the final night's room.

My time at Astra Village & Suites has been pretty fantastic overall. I loved the central location in Koutouloufari, making it super easy to explore the area. The staff were friendly and helpful, yet I did find the bar area a bit smoky, which wasn't my favorite. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the lovely views and comfortable rooms.

My stay at Astra Village & Suites was a mixed bag. While my first nine nights in the junior suite were fantastic, especially the spaciousness and the sea view, my last night in the original room was disappointing due to an unpleasant smell and a cramped shower. The two pools were nice and mostly quiet, but the air conditioning and safe had additional fees that caught me off guard.

My stay at Astra Village & Suites was quite lovely overall. The apartment was clean and quiet, with beautiful sea views from the balcony, which really enhanced my experience. However, the air conditioning was an extra charge, which I felt should have been included. Additionally, I was a bit disappointed with the breakfast eggs being overdone. 🌊😊

During my recent stay at Astra Village & Suites, I enjoyed the friendly and attentive staff, especially Frosso and Manos, who truly made my experience special. However, I found the additional costs for air conditioning and the basic quality of the room a bit disappointing. The location is fantastic for exploring Koutouloufari, but the infrastructure could use some modernization.
