My name is Pantelis and I am the bookings manager on behalf of the owners. I will make sure that your reservation, arrival and stay is smooth and pleasant. The apartment is owned by Kostis and Kate. They are veterans in the hospitality sector, being themselves owners of a holiday complex many years ago. They decided to take advantage of their property's privileged location and create a peaceful and relaxing apartment ideal for guests wanting a short stay in Heraklion area (ideal position for historical site and museum visits). They will make sure that your stay is enough for you to say I want to come back next year!

A cosy 1 bedroom apartment in a detached property, offering tranquility and panoramic views of Heraklion, 10 minutes drive from Knossos and Archanes. The sofa bed can accomodate additional 2 guests. The private terrace with its wooden patio and large dining table is the perfect setting for a homemade breakfast. After a busy day sightseeing you can soak up the afternoon sun on the deck chairs. Enjoy unobstructed views of Heraklion and Psiloritis mountain. This is a ground floor apartment in a detached house in a very quiet area outside Heraklion. The house is on a sloped hill, it is gated all around and benefits from panoramic views. The owners live on the top floor but the ground floor sitting area and garden is for your use only. You will also receive a parking space within the property through a gated parking entrance.

The apartment is situated 10 kilometers from Heraklion centre and the local airport. The nearest sandy beaches are approximately 12km away while other magnificent beaches are situated 20-40 minutes away. ***A few words about Heraklion region*** Heraklion is Crete’s main entrance hub and is situated at the center of the island (north shore). The Minoan Palace of Knossos lies in the city’s outskirts while the archaeological museum boasts a large collection of Minoan artifacts from all over Crete. Although Heraklion is a bustling city, the calm and picturesque countryside, only a few minutes away by car will take you back in time. In the region's villages you will enjoy authentic Cretan cuisine made with quality local olive oil and other local produce. A winery tour will allow you to experience the island’s wine-making tradition, going back thousands of years. During the day you can enjoy swimming and sunbathing in numerous sandy beaches lying in the north and south of the region. Heraklion is therefore a must stop during a multi-day island tour. It is also a convenient base for a short trip to Crete since one can easily combine visits to historical sites with beaches.
