    We spent 2 weeks here in july/August at The back yard ,where we had a great time. Its perfect for a family and it was in a really good location. It has everything you need with plenty of facilities , a tv in every room including Netflix in the lounge . The whole house is fully air conditioned which is great . There are 2 big bedrooms with plenty of wardrobe space , and a really spacious living/kitchen area with all facilities you need to make it home from home . There's a cooker ,big fridge freezer ,washing machine , microwave ,kettle ,toaster ,nespresso machine ,juicer . There is also a lovely out door area to sit and relax . I will be returning here again soon to enjoy relaxing holiday with my family .Thank you again to the lovely hosts Sandy and Socrates. See you soon .

    During our holiday on the island of Kos, we were extremely satisfied with the accommodation. Everything was perfectly clean, cozy, and equipped with everything we needed – and even more! In addition to standard comfort, we were pleasantly surprised by practical extras like a washing machine, dishwasher, toaster, hairdryer, and other useful amenities that made our stay even more enjoyable. Besides the comfortable interior, we also had access to a spacious terrace, which was perfect for drying our beach clothes or relaxing with a coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. Although parking wasn’t available directly in the courtyard, we had no problem finding a spot just 20–50 steps away on the roadside, which was absolutely fine for us. Right next to the accommodation, there is a smaller hotel with a swimming pool, which we could use for free – or grab a refreshing drink at their bar. As a result, we could sometimes hear music from the hotel, but we didn’t mind at all – we actually enjoyed having “free music” and a pleasant atmosphere! 😄 Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would gladly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-equipped place to stay on Kos. We would love to come back again

    I would have liked a hook for the shower, but that's only a small thing and in no way would it stop us from staying here again.

    Nothing not to like, everything was excellent. Very helpful host Sandy, and friendly neighbour Chris. Would definitely recommend a stay at The Back Yard to anyone 🤩🥰

    The shower was hand-held, it would be helpful to install a bracket to hold the shower head.

    The property is conveniently located close to supermarket, restaurants and a karaoke bar, with a few minutes' further walk to the harbour-side and main beach. It felt very safe walking around later at night, though the immediate area seemed somewhat run down. The apartment was equipped with absolutely everything we might need for a week's holiday, including comprehensive laundry facilities. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked with 'home from home' levels of crockery, cutlery and glassware and the bedlinen and towels were of excellent quality. Particularly liked the quiet and easy-to-operate air conditioning, the comfortable beds and the integrated filtered water tap.

    There wasn’t anything we didn’t like

    The owner met us and was absolutely lovely, very thoughtful and genuinely cared that we enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very comfortable with good quality beds and bedding. Fully equipped with every need catered for. The hotel next door was equally welcoming with great pool to use. The owner and The Agrilli staff went above and beyond. Location was excellent, supermarket just a few steps away and beach within minutes. Thank you for everything!

    There was only one set of keys, which made things a little more complicated if we didn’t go out as a complete group - but not the end of the world

    It was clean, there was plenty of room. The facilities were perfect. It was within walking distance to the main town, access to the pool next door. Very helpful couple and neighbours A nice touch would be a guest book, for guests to write there thank you’s in

    We've just returned home from spending a week in The Back Yard. The apartment is perfect, it has everything you could need for your holiday. The kitchen is so well equipped, the beds are really comfortable. The shutters and air con give you relief from the heat. It has been refurbished to such a high standard, and beautifully decorated, it feels like a home from home. Right next-door is Hotel Agrelli, the staff there are so welcoming, and the pool & bar are lovely- try the greek BBQ night, you won't be disappointed! Thank you Sandy & Socrates for being so welcoming, and to Chris for the superb cleaning. We hope to be lucky enough to stay in The Back Yard again in the future.
