    I can't say i would suggest someone else the Sea in this area , but the swimmingpool it's great and buses are avalable to reach other sites or to do tours downtown to visit museums and enjoy

    The swimming pool really well kept, salted water so i must say particular overall, the lady gave me immediately precise and correct infos about buses and supermakets and she was always available in case of Need. Pity that they are building right in front of the hotel were there was nothing before, so the view Is not so open anymore on the near beach but still good, the Crete Aquarium it's very nice to visit and i was lucky to stay so near we saw It twice included the VR

    The property, like so many along that section of coastline, are on the flight path for arrivals can be a little noisy. Also I did not find the bed very comfortable.

    The owner and her daughter were very kind. The pool is well kept and the area around the pool is very clean. 10 minute walk to bus stop to the airport or Malia. Also great bakery and small supermarket well stocked and reasonable prices.

    The host is very nice and was very helpful with everything we needed. The location is great and very close to good taverna and the sea. Highly recommended for a family with kids who can also andjoy the pool

    It is a little far from the bars/restaurants for someone with mobility issues. That would be my only issue, we did spend a fair bit on taxis but only because father had problems walking too far. The bathroom could do with something for us to clean between apartment cleans, which were excellent at every few days.

    The host and her daughter could not do enough for us, my father has a few mobility issues and they were extremely helpful, calling taxis, checking on us often,

    It’s a little far from local shops. We had elderly parents with us so a hire car was a must. Kitchen a little basic

    The owner, daughter and all staff were very friendly and accommodating. It’s less than 5 mins to walk to the beach and there’s a nice pool with plenty of sun beds for all

    Everything needs service doors from toalet can not be closed causing noise each time you touch them. Kitchen is old. NO MOSCITO NET - this is so easy and cheap to afford by hotel in order to get happy sleep to it's guests.

    hosts are great, location is just next to sea. You can hear wave sounds from your terase. Pool is great clean and more than big enough

    As we didn't pay a surcharge for the use of the air conditioning, we were attacked by mosquitos during the evening(our own fault). So I would implore you to pay for air conditioning in the hotter months.

    We were met by the host late at night and provided with a full bottle of water which was much appreciated! The host was super friendly and flexible with the check out time. As we only stayed for one night , we did not explore the area but the apartment was really close to the sea.

    Staff was very slow and didnt respond to messages leading up to my arrival. The room had an odour. The sheets in the living room weren't clean and the location is in the middle of nothing.

    Nice view of the sea

    Lack of cleanliness and time between cleanings, garbage was not collected each day, advertised with tv-was one, advertised air conditioning-you had to pay AND we stayed 5 days and the drain overflowed in the bathroom-flooded-for 3 of those days!!!! Don’t go there! Floors weren’t swept.

    The swimming pool.
