The apartment is stunning, beautifully furnished and equipped to a very high standard. The owner has thought of everything you need to ensure you have a wonderful stay. The welcome hamper, which we were not expecting was a lovely surprise. It contained all the essentials for the first few days and more. The apartment is located in a quiet area of Elounda, the beach is literally across the road and there are a good selection of excellent restaurants/tavernas/supermarkets very close by. Following the booking/reservation the owner (Mike) made contact offering any assistance we required prior to arrival. We booked our airport transfers through him and this service was excellent. He met us personally on arrival at the apartment and was available during our stay if we needed to contact him. We had a wonderful and relaxing stay and cannot wait to return next year. Thank you once again Mike, it was absolutely perfect.

Everything was top notch at this property. You can't beat the location. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach. It's extremely clean and very well appointed. There's not a mark on the walls! It's definitely luxury and you feel it the second you enter the space. From the monogrammed towels and robes, to the provided toiletries and slippers. The linens were fresh, the beds and pillows extremely comfortable and a hot tub overlooking the beach! You will not be disappointed. I also cannot say enough about the host Mihali (Michael). He genuinely cares about his guests and goes the extra mile to make you feel welcomed. He even made our dinner reservations and his recommendations did not disappoint. Genuine Cretan hospitality.

“Wow, what a beautiful place!”
Wow, what a place! The most beautiful modern and high quality apartment with everything you could need and more. It was like a home from home. The host was excellent, really kind and thoughtful with plenty of recommendations and regular checks to make sure everything was OK. A fabulous and varied food and drink selection upon arrival, best I've had on my travels in Crete. Brilliant location near the beach, restaurants and boats to Spinalonga with good views from the balcony. The property is also nice and secure so is very safe if travelling alone. Also perfect for families as there is a playground in front of the property and a nearby beach with sandy access to the water at one end. I cannot recommend this place enough, thank you Michael, your place is a credit to you, you should be so proud. Don't hesitate to book!

“Beautiful and comfortable apartment with exceptional service from the owner to ensure we had a perfect stay.”
The apartment was comfortable, luxurious and very clean. It is even more spacious than it looks in the photos. Loved the super comfortable beds. We had everything we needed. Extra touches, like the coffee machine and beach towels were much appreciated. The location was perfect for the beach opposite and very close to restaurants, cafes and shops, but still peaceful. There was a little noise from the restaurant kitchen below in the evening but this stopped by bedtime and did not affect us.

“exceptional holiday”
Attention to detail, made you feel like you were in a five star hotel. Michael was in regular contact to make sure all was ok and nothing needed. we were given an amazing welcome pack which lasted few days saving us from going to the shop. Would highly recommend and we will be returning.

“Katikia”
Our host, Michael, was fantastic. The apartment was very clean and offered everything that is required. All toiletries were supplied. A welcome bottle of wine, bowl of fruit, basket of essentials and milk, meat and cheese. Great location in the town and a 2 minute stroll from the beach.

“Perfect!!!”
The apartment itself was fantastic, everything had been carefully thought of. The air cooling system was a god send along with the jacuzzi and of course a washing machine for the endless beach trips! The arrival basket of food was amazing and contained all that was needed for the first days. Our host Mike was very attentive and made sure everything was super easy and comfortable for us. The location itself was perfect for our family with the shops and tavernas in easy reach and the beautiful beach just across the road. So many amazing memories and can't wait to return!!

“This is an A+ apartment with everything you need for a great holiday.”
Great location, minutes from the centre of town with all it's bars and restuarants. Very spacious, modern and spotlessly clean apartment. Great options on the large modern TV, including Netflicks. It was nice that the owner often messaged to check if all was OK. Would book this apartment again.

“Beautiful luxury apartment in heart of Elounda”
High end boutique style apartment with hot tub. Picture’s definitely do this place justice. Stayed as family of four adults. Availability of beach towels , bath robes , slippers , toiletries really helpful - we travelled with 10kg hand luggage. You really didn’t want for anything. Great washing machine and all the wash stuff. Welcome pack of food more like a grocery shop , bread meat cheese, wine water juice jam honey cereal , crackers . Tea coffee milk. Supply of water for the entire holiday . Hot tub drained , cleaned , refilled x2 in 7 days . Air con in all areas . Great terrace sunny all day til about 5 . Beach across the road , restaurants/ shops / cafes galore , you really are in the heart of Elounda but quiet at night. Special mention to Michael for being a great host and Vachus taverna underneath the apartment …. Great chats with the chef / owner every time we returned home or went out, such kindness is special, please eat there , easy to overlook what’s on your doorstep. Went to Agios Nikolaos for a trip too busy no sense of community like there is in Elounda.

“Excellent apartment with a homely feel, close to lots of local amenities”
The apartment was lovely, it is very conveniently located to all of the local facilities. There are lots of restaurants, bars within a few minutes walking distances so you are spoilt for choice. The beach is across the road from the apartment with a beautiful view from the terrace overlooking the beach. The apartment is extremely well equipped, it has everything you need. The owner Michael is extremely friendly, helpful and thoughtful. Michael provided us with Milk, cheese, bread, ham, butter, water, and several other food items, which was great, unexpected, and appreciated. There are lots of extras which make the apartment a home from home, the beds are lovely and comfortable, there is a washing machine, dishwasher, hairdryer, bathrobes, towels, I could go on. There are also beach towels which is a bonus as it saves you having to bring these with you. The apartment is spotlessly clean and has been well thought out. The outside terrace provides a lovely relaxing spot to sit and enjoy the sunshine or enjoy a glass of wine or cocktail or two. Michael responded to any query within a very short space of time and was always making sure you were okay and happy with the apartment. We only stayed for a week I wish we could have stayed longer. We do hope to go back soon and next time stay longer. Thank you Michael for a lovely stay and for being so helpful and accommodating

“A Must Read if Looking for Accommodation in Elounda”
Everything. The accommodation exceeded my expectations in every way. Having travelled widely and stayed in numerous hotels I can honestly say that this was by far the best. Having travelled with only cabin luggage we expected to have to buy all the liquids/pastes etc on arrival, but this apartment had it all, and I mean all (well except for the sun tan lotion). A high standard of furniture and facilities was evident both indoors and out, and the bed was so comfortable that I had the best nights' sleep ever. Sufficient toiletries were provided for the whole stay including shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, body lotion and hand soap. There were also shower caps, shaving kits and toothbrushes. The washing machine and dishwasher had all the necessary pods etc, and teabags, coffee pods and sugar were in abundance. Among the additional items were plasters, a torch, a pen, and so on. Things that you don't always think of until you need them. The kitchen equipment was of a high standard and spotless. The welcome box was better than I have ever seen including bread, croissants, cereals, cereal bars, bread sticks, fruits, cheese, ham and water. The large balcony was furnished and there was a hot (cold) tub to relax in at the end of the day. Towels were provided including huge beach towels along with bath, and face towels and flannels. In fact I can't think of much that was not included! The owner was very attentive and was genuinely interested in making our stay the best it could possibly be.

A fabulous apartment! We simply cannot express our gratitude enough for the exceptional experience we had. From the warm hospitality of our incredible host to the top-notch amenities, our stay was nothing short of extraordinary. First and foremost, our host Michael was beyond kind and hospitable, making us feel welcomed from the moment we arrived. Michael went above and beyond to ensure our comfort throughout our entire stay, nothing was too much for him. The apartment itself was an absolute gem. From the moment we stepped inside, we were impressed by its impeccable cleanliness and attention to detail. One aspect that truly stood out was the apartment's exceptional level of equipment. Michael has taken great care in ensuring that every amenity you could possibly need was provided. The kitchen was fully equipped with modern appliances, a thoughtful welcome basket filled with local treats and high-end quality toiletries provided, and the super comfortable beds even had cooling pillows! The attention to detail in the apartment was remarkable. The location of the apartment was also fantastic. Situated in the heart of Elounda, the convenience of having everything at our fingertips made our stay even more enjoyable. In conclusion, our stay at this apartment was an unforgettable experience. The kindness and hospitality of our host, combined with the exceptional amenities and prime location, exceeded our expectations in every way. We wholeheartedly recommend this accommodation!

“5 star luxury.”
This accommodation is absolutely amazing. A beautiful marble staircase leads up to the 2 bedroomed , 2 bathroomed spacious apartment. Everything looks brand new just as in the pictures. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly want. A very generous welcome basket, an enormous fruit bowl and the fridge was stocked with lots of goodies.A nice touch. A very large balcony with stylish furniture and the jacuzzi is fabulous for relaxing in whilst taking in the scenic view. Enormous beach towels are provided - so nice not to have to pack some. Location is excellent, straight opposite the beach and tavernas and bars are a few steps away. Not at all noisy though. I stayed for 8 nights and didn't want to leave. I've travelled all over Greece for many years and it is honestly the best accommodation I've ever stayed in. Mike the host is a lovely man who is most concerned that his guests have a fabulous time and we certainly did. Can't wait to return.
