    No shower curtain in the bathroom and no microwave in the room.

    Great view from the apartment, very close to the beach and affordable price. Host was very responsive.

    What an idyllic spot! This modern, cozy studio was perfect for a peaceful getaway. The view is to die for, the kitchen is equipped and Joanna is super lovely and helpful. We really enjoyed our time here.

    The only nuance is the lack of a curtain in the bathroom

    Many good memories from Bali and from Joanna Apartments in particular. The owner is very friendly and helped us no matter what we asked. We really want to come here again!)))

    The air conditioner broke but Joanna switched our rooms really fast as soon as we told her; so it‘s still a 10/10!

    Joanna was really nice and responds fast. She feels responsible and always watched after our needs. She is a sweetheart! The Apartments are near the beach and in a good condition.

    We had an issue as we had no hot water and the shower was freezing cold ,contacted Joanna and she came straight away to see what the problem was, basically all the hot water had been used by other guests and as we were going out we couldn't wait for the water to heat up so had to have cold showers, this didn't spoil our stay but just shows how amazing the owner was, the next morning everything was fine and we had hot water for a shower, next time we will make sure we shower earlier in the evening and not later ☺️

    Booked this last minute as we were visiting family in Crete and I wanted to go to this resort, we arrived early and our room was ready so Joanna let us have the room, lovely peaceful location with a nice side view of the sea nice apartment

    Beautiful view of the sea from our room. Very close to the beach but we loved just swimming off the rocks every morning down the hill a little. Better than a pool any day. Joanna was very helpful and a great communicator. We loved Bali and will definitely come again. And when we do we will stay at Joanna's.

    I love this place, although it isn’t close to the main cities, it is just like 45 minutes drive from Heraklion, the place is located in a quiet area, shops, restaurants around, and access to 3 beaches near by, Joanna was incredible welcoming and helpful. The studio has a incredible view to the sea, has all basic features you need. I really love it and recommended

    We didn't receive the room we booked, we booked with sea view and received partial view. There were some cups unorganised and dirty in the kitchen area, not nice. We had an extra folded bed, which was taken the next day, after a notice "We will take the bed"(no excuses, no asking, just we do that), even if I said we have some stuff on it already... The reply was they "will move it on the furniture", but furniture there was not in the room. Only beds and the table for cosmetics, but no chair, no table for food with chairs and the room was so spacious. And they take even the bed we used for a coach/table.

    The place of the building is very good. Close to center, restaurants, bakery, even the train stop. The rooftop terrace is so nice, highly recommend it! Nice view of Bali aka Cinque terre. 👌😍 The communication was sometimes with delay, but Joanna is a nice company when you catch her. The room was not okay, unfortunately.

    Nothing to do with the hotel but fireworks at 11.40pm and a couple loud bangs at 1am. A hard walk up the hills but definitely worth it.

    The views from our balcony and the rooftop was amazing with panoramic views from the top and all the lights at night look great. The host Joanna was very friendly and helpful.
