“Lovely place to stay”
The apartments are large, very modern, beautifully furnished, and located in a garden complex set back from the road. They have a private balcony and the bathroom with a spacious, modern shower is excellent. Travel to and from the airport takes 10 minutes. Despite the proximity to the airport it is quiet and you can sleep very well. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. I was able to store my bike case there securely during my Crete trip. There is a bakery opposite that opens as early as 6 and offers coffee and treats. Several tavernas and mini-markets are within walking distance. The beach is also only a few minutes’ walk away. I’ll gladly come again.

“Excellent day would highly recommend the apartments and the location but possibly for housekeeping to be a little bit mo”
Great location, excellent property, shops, supermarket and fantastic restaurant on the other side! Beach is very close. Property was big enough for a couple, rooms had great space and storage. Bus stop right outside to get into town centre roughly 15/20 minute ride for €2.50 very reasonable price.

“Excellent hosting by Manos in a well-equipped apartment, perfect for a quiet getaway.”
It was a very comfortable apartment. It had a large, comfortable bed. It had every amenity we needed. It was just as described on the website. The accommodation is situated quite close to the beach and there are several coffee shops and small shops nearby. Manos, the owner, was exceptionally helpful and answered our queries very quickly. He was professional and extremely personable.

“I only stayed for a short time but even , even a longer stay would be pleasant here . I highly recommend”
It is the same as the pictures shown. If not even better. The lights options , the Air Conditioner, the freezer…the little details that makes your stay feel good. The beach is really nearby with variety of restaurants.

“Was a great place to stay with the family”
We had a very nice stay - everything was comfortable, enough space, clean and close to the beach. We were specifically looking for a location in Karteros and this was perfect. The hosts were very nice and friendly. When choosing the place, space of the apartment was the key factor - as we stay with 2 kids we had sufficient space to entertain them and cater to their differing sleep regimes (and occasionally even work). Although the place is near the road it was not a problem at all - we had a great sleep.

We spent four nights here (21–25 July 2025) and frankly can’t find a single thing to complain about. Spotless apartment – floors, bathroom, linens, all squeaky-clean on arrival and kept that way. Genuinely friendly staff – quick check-in, helpful tips about the area, zero attitude. Location – two-minute stroll to Karteros Beach and a coffee shop right next door, so mornings were easy. Parking – on-site space reserved for guests; no circling the block. Self-catering perks – no breakfast offered, but the kitchen had everything I needed, from decent cookware to a working fridge. Value for money is bang-on. If you want a clean, hassle-free base by the beach, book it and don’t overthink.
