We had decided on Donoussa for three nights and I researched where was a good location before arriving. Aposperitis caught my eye for its beach location and I decided it was where I wanted to try. Instead of booking it through search engines I checked availability and knew they had room so we got the ferry walked to the place and asked if we could stay for three nights. 

The owner was lovely she told us she had a room for 3 nights and it would be ready in half an hour. We popped next door for lunch and returned to be told the room was ready. 

We had a stunning room on the first floor overlooking the beach. It had two single beds a fridge and a bathroom and air con was included. 

The exit to the place is literally on the beach. That is my idea of paradise. The rooms were clean and tidy and the ferry is only five minutes Cross the beach. You can watch it sail into Donoussa and then walk across as it’s getting closer. 

Donoussa is stunning. If you like quite this is a place to visit and I would highly recommend Aposperitis as you base. 

Best setting ever

I had booked this apartment in advance via Booking.com, but we were not disappointed: when the boat from Naxos arrived on the island, there was a lady from Aposperitis waiting at the quai and she offered to take us to the apartment in a taxi. As it was just two minutes walking we declined and went there on foot.
Beautiful location: directly on Stavros beach.

Great location, great price-quality

This is why I come to the Greek Islands every year.  Family run places that genuinely engage you right from arrival ( Thank you daughter Irini) Mum who takes care of the rooms and dad who is always there with a smile. My room, although small, had clearly been refurbished and repainted and although it didn’t have the super views of Stavros beach that the rooms at the front do, it was more than sufficient for my 5 night stay. And cheap for August! Believe me, this room on Santorini or Mykonos would and does cost double or even more! Its location cannot be bettered as it is 5 minutes to walk to the port, the bakery ( yum ! ) and the myriad of restaurants in the small village. Donoussa is a quiet place ( that’s why I chose to come here! ) and this small room was perfect for my needs. For info: Dad also runs the boat that goes to the two superb beaches of Kedros and Livadi. 

Super Family run pension

Great location. You step right on to the Sandy Beach. Accommodation was Clean and Comfortable, and very Friendy Owners. You can get a Boat Trip round the Island in their own Boat at reasonable price. A few nice Tavernas plus Bakery and 2 places to buy Fruit and other Supplies.

Lovely Stay right on the Beach.

We stayed at Aposperitis for a week in September. Stavros, which is Donousa's main village and port is very small, so wherever you stay you will be close to the beach. Saying that, Aposperitis' location is amazing, as it is literally situated on the beach. This makes it perfect for families, with smaller kids, as you just need to walk 20 meters on the sand before you reach the water! Stavros beach, is amazing, with crystal clear waters and although it lacks the remoteness of the other beaches of the island ( Livadi and Kedros), it is the perfect place for families. 

We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment, which had a very spacious patio overlooking the sea, perfect to sit and enjoy your breakfast and lunch. The rooms are basic but spacious. There are certain things that need improvement, like the hob in the kitchen needs replacing, as it was not working properly- it took ages to boil water. There was no kettle and generally the kitchen was not equipped satisfactory in terms of utensils. Also it would be good if the owners include some very basic condiments like salt, pepper and also sugar. Most self catering places, do include those things and it would have been a nice addition. 

Finally, our room was not cleaned daily and when we did enquire we were told ( in a very unbothered fashion) that the cleaning takes place every 2 days and that this is the norm for the island. With a very small toddler and a place literally on the beach which gets easily dirty from sand, the room should be cleaned daily. We did ask for our room to be cleaned ( at least the floors) and although the initial response was not customer-friendly I shall say, the owner's mother approached us on this matter and did clean our room on most of the days.  She also kindly offered laundry facilities, which was very helpful.

There may be still room left for improvement, but Aposperitis location is unbeatable and my rating on this property is mainly based on that. We do plan to visit again in future and enjoy the peacefulness and breathtaking views of the island!
