Very enjoyable stay

The location was very good and the host couldn't have made us feel more welcome and comfortable, we really enjoyed our stay. She left us some fruit on arrival and gave us cakes for when we were leaving. So good that we will be booking to go back to the same apartments next year

Lovely apartments in beautiful Elounda

We’ve returned from a fabulous fortnight stay at Palemilos. My husband and I stayed in a ground floor apartment, and my father in the apartment above. Both were extremely comfortable and beautifully furnished, with everything needed for a self-catering stay. Sophia is an amazing host. She greeted us warmly when we arrived and showed us around the apartments. Sophia kindly provided bottled water and a fruit platter in our fridges. Sophia also lives at Palemilos and it was lovely to see her most days and have little chats. One day, her mum made beautiful cheese pies, which Sophia delivered to us all - they were delicious! Each apartment has its own balcony or terrace, but there is also a lovely communal terrace, which has a selection of books to be borrowed. Palemilos is just a couple of minutes, flat walk, to Elounda’s main square and harbour, which has an excellent choice of restaurants, bars and boutiques. There are also 2 very good supermarkets if you do choose to cook at the apartment. Thank you Sophia for a wonderful stay!

Absolutely wonderful stay! The accommodation was spotless, comfortable, and exactly as described — even better in person. The location was perfect for exploring the area, and every detail in the apartment showed real care. What truly made the experience exceptional was our host, Sofia. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, offering great local tips, helping with arrangements, and always being available if we needed anything. Her kindness and attention to detail turned a great trip into an unforgettable one. Highly recommend both the place and Sofia’s outstanding hospitality!

Perfect, just perfect

Absolutely everything from the location to our wonderful hostess Popi, having stayed here before we knew what to expect, and were not disappointed again. The studio had everything you could want, from enough clothes hangers to a coffee machine, from plenty of hot water to welcome snacks and a drink in the fridge, Palemilos really is a home from home. At your door you are greeted with a welcome sign, testament to the amount of repeat guests is when you see Welcome Again on every door and we hope to receive that welcome again next year.

Dont think you can beat Palemilos Apartments - Just perfect

The property exceeded our expectations, it quite literally is just take yourself and clothes as everything else is provided. I cant think of anything that is missing for a great stay, everything has been thought out and is just perfect. The lounge is large and very comfortable, the kitchen has a large dining table and I just have to comment on the amount of clothes hangers available - the most I have ever seen in any accommodation ......anywhere. Close to the centre, but far enough away to not be bothered by noise. Walkable to beach, bars and restaurants Popi is just the loveliest person and hostess, is on hand to help and is very knowledgeable about the area. I would also like to say Efharisto to Popi for our leaving gift, it was very thoughtful and kind.

Beautiful cosey home from home

The property was right in centre but away from Main Street, nice and quiet. It was amazing with cushions and curtains the owner made herself. Everything you could need to cook spotlessly clean, home away from home, so pretty. Could have stayed here longer. The owner popi was so kind and helpful, made me homemade spinach pasties that were delicious, and lovely leaving gift. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend these apartments 😀 I am a solo traveller and felt totally safe here.

Perfect lokation

Palemilos Best place to stay in Elounda, perfect for a good quit vacation. Nice apartments with everything you need . Popi is very nice and helpful with everything, We first stayed at Palemilos in 1996 and every year the next 9 years. It was so good to be back after 19 years. Thank you Popi for your warm velcome. We enjoy the Olive oil (and the raki), you gave us😊. See you soon….  Palemilos is located just behind the church on a very quit road next to the local Take the shortcut 50 meters, and you are on the main street close to the supermarket, tavernas and restaurents.  Take the bus or taxi from the main square to Agio Nicholas. At the bus station in Agio N. you can take a bus to all of Crete (but you dont want to lave Elounda😊)  Best recomondations from Tina and Carsten

Very good variant for a short period and excellent hostess

+ It was a comfortable and not expensive accommodation + Our studio-room was clean, spacious and very nice, with everything we needed: air-conditioner (free of charge) and an overhead fan, many sockets, TV, safe, Wi-Fi, hair dryer, 3 towels per guest, enough light (natural and electric), but there were shutters and awning over the balcony for the sun + Very good equipped kitchenette: microwave, electric stove, toaster, kettle, drip coffee maker, sandwich toaster, eating and cooking utensils, paper towels, a full bottle of detergent and a new dish sponge (in an economy apartment!) + There was also a portion of soap, shower gel, hair cap and slippers in two sizes – everything is like in a 4* hotel! + The hostess also cares about the health of her guests: in our room we found a set of colour masks, disinfectants for hands and for the table + Our room was decorated in the same style of floral theme – pictures and plates on the walls, curtains, decorative pillows and even furniture handles. So nice, it wasn’t a faceless standard apartment! + Check-out time is about 11:30 – very comfortable! + Good situation of the hotel: 2 minutes walk to a cafe and a mini-supermarket, 5 minutes to Elounda beach, of course, this is not the best beach in Crete, but there are no waves here + Hostess Popi also lives there, so the reception is almost 24/7; we arrived at night and Popi waited for us even with a mini-dinner (for free!), because the restaurants and shops were already closed. She prepared cheese and spinach pies, chocolate, honey with yogurt, crackers, juice and water. Incredible hospitality! + Popi also kept a place in a public parking for us (sometimes it can be full) + And before our departure Popi gave us a fantastic present – a bottle of grappa and a bottle of olive oil, all in safe packaging for a long flight + There we felt not in as a hotel, but as at home of our dear aunt, thanks to Popi!

Honeymoon

We spent a week's honeymoon at the hotel and were greeted and pampered by the owners with sweet fruit and wine on arrival and were given local products on departure. They left lots of small cute details making us feel very welcome like important information in both English and Italian. The shower head was broken and they quickly replaced it so They are very helpful the cleaning lady was so kind to create a flower heart on our bed. Excellent position, just 1 minute from shops, markets, bars and bakery however still in a very quite area with no noise. Reccomend it!

relaxing and enjoyable stay

Popi was a superb host. I had an ankle injury and she changed my apartment to a ground floor location at no change in cost I also received 2 gifts of spinach and then cheese pies cooked by Popi. Nothing was too much trouble . Popi was always on hand to assist and provide any information needed highly recommend this host and location
