This property was truly a home away from home for us - the island of Crete is such a magical and beautiful place to disc
The property is very cosy, homely and beautiful, tucked away in a quiet, hilly village of Palaiokastro - just a short car ride from Heraklion city and a quick 10mins walk to the cute little beach, overlooked by the ruins of the ancient fortress. It has a lovely little garden full of Mediterranean vegetation, such as Citrus, Pomegranate and Fig trees and grape vines, all bursting with fruits. The rooms are very cosy and clean, with comfortable beds and furnitures, bathroom is very clean and the landlord, Mr Leonidas is a lovely and welcoming person, who always made sure we had a place to park and would bring us fresh figs almost every morning, which just added to the homely feeling we had from the day one of our stay.
It is difficult to stay what we didn’t like as everything was beyond perfect and a great value for money - the only thing I would mention is that to get around and for grocery trips, you would definitely benefit from having a car, however I feel this would be the case for a lot of places on the island, unless you’re staying at a resort. Nevertheless, it was beyond easy to rent one, as the lovely Eleftheria, who manages the property, hooked us up with a car rental company that had very reasonable prices with no hidden fees and after obtaining the car, it was all a smooth ride.

La gentillesse du propriétaire et de sa fille qui nous a accueilli chaleureusement ainsi que les petites attentions au cours de notre séjour. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le jardin avec ses arbres fruitiers, le calme de l'emplacement et la proximité de la plage.
Le logement aurait mérité un ménage un peu plus approfondi notamment dans la salle de bain et dans la cuisine, mais malgré cela nous avons passé un agréable séjour.

Breve soggiorno ad Heraklion
La posizione era strategica, a pochi passi da una splendida spiaggia, a pochi chilometri dal centro di Heraklion. Leonidas , il proprietario molto accogliente e cordiale.
