"Perfect stay."

"The villas was very clean, spacious and modern. We were there March 12-16 so very early in the season. The pools were closed which I didn’t know until getting there as it was shown when I booked that heated pools were all year round. There was apparently a sandstorm from Africa for a week prior to us coming which then closed the pools. The host offered us an extra night free however we already had our flights back to Athens booked so couldn’t take advantage of that. Michaelis offered a dinner for the 4 of us so we took him up on that offer and it was excellent. The location was pretty good, 20 min from Heraklion, beaches, about 40 min to the CreteAquarium. It’s a pretty quiet area that you are in, the locals are quite friendly and helpful I would stay again as long as the pool was open as my kids felt the disappointment with it not being open. "

"Very characterful but be prepared for stairs and steep slopes "

"An amazing clean apartment with all the necessary features, and easy parking. A lovely place to stay in summer or winter. Highly recommended. "

"Very nice room with a lovely view over the vines. Breakfast was wonderful and generous with everything homemade, served on the private terrace. A short drive to tavernas in the local villages, and only about 15 mins into Heraklion."

"GET BREAKFAST AND LOVELY TOWN BY THE OCEAN"

"Great hotel. Definitely will stay there in the future!"

"The house was a lovely old Cretan house renovated to a high standard, and Popi was a wonderful, helpful, and knowledgeable host - really friendly and full of suggestions of where to go next. You will need to have a car to get around as it is not at all central, and do not expect a modern building - but it was full of character and the aircon worked very well, so in my eyes it was perfect! I would happily stay here again, and hope to do so some day in the coming years."

"We had a really lovely time at this house — it’s spacious, surrounded by lots of greenery, and the overall atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing. The pool was absolutely beautiful and made our stay even more enjoyable. The shaded garden and good isolation from neighbors created a real sense of privacy, which we truly appreciated. The interior offered plenty of space for a group, and most of us felt very comfortable. However, there were a few issues that future guests should be aware of. First, some of the doors didn’t close properly, which was inconvenient and should definitely be fixed. Second, there was not enough space for the ninth person — this should be clearly mentioned in the listing, or at least shown in the photos to manage expectations. Also, the washing machine didn’t work during our stay, which was disappointing, especially for a longer trip. And one small but annoying detail: the kitchen really lacked proper knives – for a house of this standard, better kitchen equipment would make a big difference. All in all, it’s a beautiful place with lots of potential — just a few improvements and more transparency in the listing would make it perfect."
