Located in Heraklio Town, 1.5 km from Heraklion Archaeological Museum and 1.8 km from Venetian Walls, Minimal Loft Art with Sea View Over Heraklion Harbour offers a garden and air conditioning.

Fantastic location near the port, with convenient access to the hop-on-hop-off bus into the city, or you can walk if you prefer. We stayed at the apartment while waiting for our son, who arrived in Heraklion on a separate flight and date, before heading to our holiday destination. We would book again next year and recommend it to others.

Ariadni Apartments, hotel in Elia

Only 250 metres from the beach of Karteros, Ariadni Apartments offers self-catering accommodation, surrounded by well-tended gardens.

Room was very clean and tidy, overlooking the entrance garden with a small balcony ovelooking field behind. Wi-Fi good, air con kept the room comfortrable for sleeping during hot nights. Bakery opposite was great for coffee and drinks - open all hours and so friendly with awesome selection of cakes and baguettes etc. There was a minimarket and tavern nearby too, didn't use because I was out most of the day. Bus stops (I didn't have a car) very close made access to Heraklion easy for local bus to Knossos and excursion bus picked up at nearby Karteros Hotel for longer trip to Spinaloga. Ideal for a 'quieter' holiday away from the crowds but with good access to all the

Elea Suites & Residences, hotel in Elia

Located conveniently 500 meters from the nearest beach and 15km from Heraklion Airport with great access to all parts of the island, Elea Suites & Residences features an outdoor swimming pool,...

The villa was spacious, private and super clean. If your looking for modern the villa is not for you as it’s classic Greece with a real quirky style, we loved it. For modern try one of there brand new apartments over looking the pool. The family who own it were wonderful and so accommodating and the food was delightful

    Katerina and Minas are great hosts, very warm and welcoming, when we arrived there was Milk, Bread and some nice Fruit to help us settle in. They are always helpful with a great knowledge of the Island and told us the best places to visit.. The Villa was clean and peaceful with beautiful views and in a nice friendly village. The Pool was very welcome in the hot Crete weather.

    The villa is magnificent with everything you need to live with a group of 11 people. The place is relaxing and the host of the villa (Thanos) is a golden person who has one goal, that we all smile! very helpful and really kind who sees us as friends and not just as customers. I recommend 100% to have a good time! Thanks again to Thanos for his heart-warming welcome! 11/10 it was magnificent! ❤️

    Elia is such a cute village to stay in and we enjoyed our time here away from the big city, which was only a short drive away. Check out the local cafe and taverna for sure! The home was comfortable, and we loved swimming in the pool on hot afternoons.

    Nestled in the heart of Elias, Crete, this enchanting villa, once a house of the village priest for four decades, offers a unique blend of history and modern comfort. The authentic atmosphere of the village creates a captivating backdrop for an unforgettable stay. Host Pavlos, with his warm welcome and attentive assistance, ensures a seamless experience. Super comfortable and impeccably clean accommodation with everything we needed for a great family stay. One of the best accommodations we have stayed

    It is located in a smaller village. Our host Michael was exceptional. He met us upon arrival to welcome us. Had stocked the fridge with some basics and had great recommendations for restaurants and places to go. And the morning we left he came to say goodbye and brought a big bag of grapes from the family farm for us to enjoy on our journey!
