We loved everything! It was bijou but perfect for us. Tastefully decorated, and spotlessly clean. The location was excellent. The complimentary breads and marmalade on the first morning were a lovely touch. Very friendly owners who made us feel very welcome.

“Great place to stay in Almyrida with excellent self catering facilities and good parking.”
The studio apartment was very well equipped for two people. Although very small, it had been very well planned with excellent self-catering and storage facilities. Also, it had a private patio with wooden loungers and a table with a sun umbrella. Good Wi-Fi and nice little touches like welcome bread rolls and homemade marmalade. I met both the hosts who were welcoming and efficient. Private from the other apartments and set in lovely gardens with a great view of Almyrida Town. Good off road parking.

Everything was perfect. Perfectly clean apartment, very well equipped, very good location - 2 minutes walking from beach and restaurants, good parking . You get delicious homemade jelly and bread for the first breakfast - what is a great surprise. We were offered possibility to stay few ours longer as our flight was in the late afternoon so we could spend some more time on the beach.

The location is excellent, with easy access to everything in Almyrida, and the apartments are freshly renovated with convenient free parking nearby. The hosts were attentive and welcoming—they greeted us with fresh bread and homemade jam (also available for purchase) and even brought toys for our child, which was a very thoughtful gesture.

“A peaceful well-presented retreat within 5 mins walk of a lovely bay”
Great setting, just up from beach. Comfy areas outside to eat and relax. Very well presented and actively cared for by owners each day. Yannis and Cecile couldn't do enough for us and were very friendly and helpful, especially re. ordering a taxi. Enjoyed the local olive oil, breakfast breads and homemade jam. Library to borrow from. Laundry facilities. We felt at home.

“Fantastic”
The location close to the beachfront and restaurants. The owners were great hosts and make you feel at home and very welcome. Our small daughter of 3 could play with toys the owner provided and all efforts were done to make our stay comfortable. Even a small nightlamp to pit next to the bed of our daughter so she would feel safe at night. These people know exactly what good hospitality is about, we had an excellent holiday

Very friendly owners who worked the extra mile to make our stay wonderful. The apartment was very nicely kept and had every amenity we needed. A nice outdoor breakfast nook. It was located only a 2 minutes walk from the beaches and all the restaurants. Will definitely stay here again.

“One of the best (or the best) location in Almyrida and close to Chania!”
Yannis and Cecile created something truly special. The whole lot is super tidy and the appartment was phenomenal. We stayed eight nights in Omega and didnt want to leave. It was even better then on the pictures. Yannis and Cecile were all over the place to keep the rooms and the premise clean and super stylish. We liked it very much and we will come back. I have to say that it was one of the best accomodations we been to - it had a super vibe, location and hosts. We would recomend it to our close friends and family. In my opinion anybody can book it without thinking twice.
