We hebben genoten van een kort verblijf in het appartement van George. Op weg vanuit de luchthaven naar het appartement belde George al om te vragen of alles goed verlopen was en of we de weg konden vinden. Het appartement was gezellig, schoon en van alle gemakken die je nodig hebt voorzien. Een heerlijk bed en na drie dagen schone handdoeken en lakens. Lekkere bedjes bij het zwembad en op n paar minuten van de baai van Agia Pelagia, waar je kon kiezen uit verschillende barretjes en eettentjes met uitzicht over de baai. Een aanrader als je er even tussenuit wilt!

Nous avons passée une semaine agréable, George est venu nous chercher à l'aéroport, la villa est confort aux photos, endroit propre et très calme. N'ayant pas pu loyer une voiture, George nous a aider a louer un scooter, ce qui est pas mal sur l'île, car le deplacement a pied est assez difficile mais faisable. En repartant il nous a offert un petit cadeau au depart. Merci beaucoup pour ce séjour et à bientôt.

George a tout fait pour que l'on passe un agréable séjour. Il nous a attendu au port (malgré le retard) , nous a débrouillé une location de voiture et nous a escorté jusqu'à l'appartement. George s'est rendu disponible durant notre séjour et nous indiqué les points d’intérêt sur l'île. L'appartement est fonctionnel, la piscine avec vue sur mer est très agréable. La résidence se trouve à proximité de 2 plages et à une quinzaine de minutes d'Héraklion en voiture, idéal pour sortir dîner ou boire un verre. Nous recommandons cette adresse !

Nous avons été très chaleureusement accueillis par George, qui est même venu nous chercher à l'aéroport! George est vraiment un hôte prévenant et sympathique, soucieux du bien-être de ses invités et toujours prêt à les aider et les conseiller. Le studio est décoré avec goût, neuf et fonctionnel. La piscine est un atout de poids, surtout avec la magnifique vue sur la mer. La plage est à une dizaine de minutes de marche alors on maintient la forme ! Tout ceci nous a permis de passer un excellent séjour en Crète :)

Un grand merci a Goerge! Le logement est conforme aux photos émises.George est toujours disponible et de bons conseils (aussi bien avant notre arrivée, pour la location d'une voiture, qu'une fois sur place pour l'accueil et les coins à visiter)! Nous avons apprécié notre séjour.. Pauline et Luc

Un accueil parfait , agréable et souriant malgré l'heure tardive , les lieux sont magnifique , la villa sur le coteau offre une vue inoubliable sur la mer , le logement est très propres avec le nécessaire pour pouvoir ce faire des repas des le lendemain , calme et très bien insonorisé, la piscine est très bien et adapter pour les enfants même en bas âge. Georges est très sympathique a l'écoute de toute demande , c'est un hôte au top qui sait recevoir et partager !! Je conseil et on reviendras , on partiras la larme à l'œil et le cœur remplis d'amour et de soleil crétois merci à vous deux

Georges est venu nous récupérer à l'aéroport et nous à comme promis aider pour la location d'une voiture ( une voiture diesel aurait été beaucoup mieux car l'on fait beaucoup de route ) Logement super correspondant à la description et aux photos ; Rien à dire Il nous à présenter les lieux et nous à tous mis à disposition pour nous mettre à l'aise ; Il restait joingnable au moindre problème La vue est magnifique avec une piscine incroyable ; meme si nous ne nous sommes pas baigner parce que l'eau était glacée et il y avait pas mal de vent ( Séjour du 17 au 22 octobre) ; Dans tout les cas ce logement est à recommander et nous n'hésiterons pas à revenir et à en parler autour de nous ; Merci pour votre accueil chaleureux

We had a wonderful week here. George was the perfect host and was always around to offer advice or help. He put on a fabulous barbecue one evening which was great fun. The apartment was lovely and very comfortable with a lovely shared pool overlooking the sea. We were able to walk to the lovely beach and restaurants. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!

Уют, комфорт, забота к любым мелочам курортного быта - все это нас ожидало в этом небольшом домике с садом в АГИА ПЕЛАГИЯ. Красивая лагуна, теплое море, чистый песок. А по вечерам барбекю из средиземноморской рыбы, салаты из свежих овощей, белое критское вино. Большая компания, дети, взрослые, потому что все наши друзья из 5-ти звездочного отеля КАПСИС предпочитали проводить вечера вместе с нами за большим столом в нашем саду. А каким превосходным лимончело нас угостила хозяйка... Спасибо вам, Мария и Димитра за ваше гостеприимство!

Stunning views and ultra clean and organised. Alexandros - the host - was truly amazing and helped us navigate around the island with places to visit. Check out his book - Blue Crete - which gives a run-down of all the beaches on the island. You definitely need a car but the peace and tranquility is second to none. Definitely recommend and would visit again. Thank you!

Alexandros, you are a very nice man and a good host, ready to help your guests at any matter night away. Go on the same way. We regret having no chance to get to know you better. Maybe next time.

Alexandros is a fantastic host, very welcoming and passionate about Crete. He definitely went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The apartment was great, just like the listing, clean and modern. Very quiet and relaxing, with an amazing view! I would definitely recommend.

Je recommande. Appartement au calme bien agencé très propre. Très bon contact avec le propriétaire. Un de nos meilleurs logements lors de notre séjour en Crête. Accès rapide en venant de l aéroport. Taverne délicieuse en bout de plage.

We had such a great time at Alexandros place ! It is well located, the view is beautiful and the apartment is really large. But more than everything Alexandros is a really helpful guest. He helped us planning our visits, have us some fresh fruits from his garden, and gave us a lot of tips on Crete. I would recommend his place 100% !

Alexandros's house is fabulous, fully equipped and with all comfort (he also gave us some food and drinks). It is on the top of the hill and from its windows (bedroom livingroom and kitchen) and terrace you can admire a breathtaking view, on the unique Aegean sea. From the house you can reach both the archeological sites and the beautiful beaches of Heraklion province. It is close Ligaria and Agia Pelagia beaches where you can find good restaurants. Alexandros is a friendly host ready to give suggestion and tips in order to make our holiday perfect. His book and website on cretan beaches were a useful guide for our disvovery of the island. We'll definitely recommend Alexandros's house .

Wundervolle Aussicht! Ruhiger Fleck und trotzdem zentral. Die Kommunikation war hervorragend! Leider war das Internet sehr langsam und ist immer wieder abgebrochen.

Wir verbrachten die letzten zwei Nächte aufgrund der Nähe zum Flughafen in dieser ruhig gelegenen, großzügigen Wohnung, die einen wunderbaren Blick auf das Meer und Heraklion erlaubt. Da die Wohnung allerdings in einem reinen Wohngebiet liegt, muss man zum Essen gehen in die nächsten Orte fahren; ein Auto ist daher von Vorteil! Die Übergabe verlief sehr unkompliziert und auch die Kommunikation war hervorragend! Leider kam es wegen der kurzen Aufenthaltsdauer zu keinem Treffen. - Alex, wir hoffen, das kann man beim nächsten mal nachholen! :)

Были в Греции впервые. Греция сразу очаровала своей красотой, доброжелательностью, чистым морем и очень вкусной едой! Эмануил встретил нас на машине, тк мы немного заблудились, был очень вежлив и всегда на связи. Вид в квартире с балкона просто потрясающий!!!!! Мы приехали ночью, а утром нас ждал такой бонус! В душе иногда были проблемы с горячей водой, но мы были пару дней и нас это не смущало. До пляжа 10 минут, назад в гору тяжелее и подольше) Пляж очень красивый, песок, для ребенка был один из лучших для нас! Вай фая не было. На кухне для готовки есть все необходимое и просто обычноц посуды много. Постель чистая, кровать удобная. Эмануил любезно согласился довезти нас до следующего места и не взял платы, мы очень благодарны за проявленную доброжелательность

The apartment had a beautiful sea view, was great location and close to many amazing beaches, as well as restaurants and super markets. For the price the apartment is a good value.

We - a family of four - Just came back from a wonderful stay in Yannis's magnificent studio, and we cannot praise this place enough. Stunning view, very clear and calm sea - even when the nice Cretean breeze was blowing (we haven't experienced this on any other beaches based on the northern shore). The studio is decorated by Yannis, whom has done this tastefully and in a way that fits perfect with the surrondings. At the same time the studio is really functional, with a nice bathroom and a lovely little kitchenette were you will find everything you need to prepare and serve a meal - including a waterfiltering system which makes the water taste as in Denmark. During our stay Yannis has arranged housekeeping every second day - total luxury!!! The studio has a Beach front terrace and a stunning roof top terrace which - of course - also faces the beautiful sea, all with nice and comfortable furniture. We used the rooftop terrace for breakfast and reading in the late evening - so very relaxing. This is the perfect studio and the perfect location for couples or family holiday no doubt in our mind about that - however, what about the host?! Yannis as a host - you couldn't ask for more, very accomodating and helpful, he does everything to make your stay comfortable and memorable - he even brought us cakes from his bakery and took us on boattrips. On top of that Yannis is really good company, and we hope that Yannis and his lovely kids one day will visit us in Denmark. Visiting this place and meeting Yannis and kids as hosts - we'd be surprised if you don't pinch your arm, i know, we did (and still do) Insider tips: Plenty of fish in the sea - our kids really enjoyed fishing (with nets) from the little bridge just outside the studio, where the cozy local fisherman also often is to be found When buying your fresh bread and fruits in the morning from the supermarket, bring home your coffee from Delicious opposite the super market (also nice icecream, waffles etc) Situated right next to the studio is Almyra - a really nice restaurant in one section and a really cool bar in the other. The bar food is actually also really nice - and the drinks are gooood For local food try Le Gourmet (or costas as Yannis' kids call it) Rent a pedalboat and pedal to the secluded beach for more nice snorkling and swimming Remember to reserve Beach chairs in the morning - especially on the Sundays which is a kick back and relax day for the greeks with DJ's playing laid back music all day at Almyra.

My friend and I had a wonderful 5 days at the studio. It was perfect as a retreat for relaxation. The views from the studio are stunning. It is very close to the waters edge. The studio had everything that we needed to make our stay comfortable. The top balcony area was great for reading and taking in the scenery. It was lovely each morning watching the fisherman and his wife remove the fish from the net. Giannis was very helpful and checked with us that everything was ok during our stay. There is an excellent choice of restaurants and bars all within walking distance. Very close to the studio you can rent canoes, boat trips etc and learn to dive. I hope to return to the studio as soon as possible.

The pictures you see on-line are only half the story. This unique studio apartment is a gem. Set in a most beautiful spot next to a crystal clear sea. It sits alone, beachside, yet every amenity is within very short walking distance. Restaurant's, Bar's, Beach-club, Super Market, Massage and Shops are all close by. I stayed alone without my family, so that I could find peace to finish writing my book. The apartment was perfect for that, offering nice places to sit in the sun, or shade. The terrace on top is a treat! It would also be perfect for a couple, and for a family with young children and Giannis is the perfect host to be at hand if needed. Thank fully, I didn't finish my book, therefore I'm looking forward to coming back and staying again soon.

This is great studio which is 10 meters away from the water front. Tastefully done interiors which are comfortable for a family of 4. The best part is the roof with a wonderful view of the bay. We spent just hours sitting there soaking the view and sun. Giannis, is very helpful. We somehow forgot a baggage at Athens airport (can you believe it!!). He took us to Heraklion market, for buying some clothes and spoke to authorities to retrieve the bag. All in all it was wonderful stay.

Terrific beachhouse - i can only say: go there !

Manos was very quick with response and has designed his unit to be very cozy. The location is perfect! We went on jogs in the area and had a view of the ocean all day. The unit had all kitchen appliances and a patio to sit and enjoy peacefully. 5 stars!!!

Ottimo, soggiorno gentilissimi padroni di casa! Esperienza da rifare!

Great cozy home, perfect for 2-3 people to sleep in, cook, & shower. Which is exactly all you need in this perfect little town outside Heraklion. Super close to the shore, which makes it easy to go back and to the beach & room. Many great restaurants nearby. The closest lounge/bar/ restaurant plays pretty loud music during the day on the weekends, but never late at night. Lot's of nice bars on the shoreline as well. Not many people in June, besides a lot of Russian tourists, can get very crowded on Sundays & generally more crowded in the following months after June. Mosquitos are a problem on the islands, so make sure you spray(provided by host) the room down before sleeping in the first two nights. Overall, great city to relax, unwind, swim, & dine without breaking the bank. Had a great time there & renting from Konstantinos. P.S favorite restaurant was Mythos Tavern, tell David(the son) that Vahan recommended it to you.

I was very disappointed with the standard of this accommodation. The entrance was dirty with two old bins of rubbish / ladder / junk by the front door giving an immediate bad impression. The bed had crumpled bottom sheets but no top sheet, just blankets which were of no use in such a hot climate. There were a couple of old greying hand towels. The bathroom was very dirty – the bin by the toilet had not been cleaned after the last occupant and was full of soiled toilet paper. The shower was not working. I had been given the keys by a neighbour as the proprietor was apparently away. I complained to the neighbour’s wife who sort of cleaned the bathroom and arranged for someone to come and fix the water supply - this was eventually done the next day. She provided me with another crumpled bottom sheet which I used as a top sheet and an old bath towel. She said that was all she had. She did not come to clean at all after that. It was not possible to open the wardrobe sufficiently as it is too close to the double bed. I had to move the bed. The wardrobe is full of old materials / junk which I had to move to enable me to hang my clothes. Only one of taps works in the kitchen and one in the washbasin, both run cold water only. The corner of the balcony is full of old bits of wood and junk. I was woken up very early on several mornings by very loud pressure washing and hoovering noises from the car rental car park adjacent to the building. The only good points are close proximity to the beach and good wifi connection. The kitchenette is OK. I have been coming to Agia Pelagia for 10 years (paying the same sort of rent) and this is the worst accommodation I have ever stayed in. Needless to say, I would not recommend this accommodation to anyone.

Everything was great. Good, clear house with perfect sea close to it. The host provided all the information about the location and helped us everytime we needed.

Mon copain et moi avons passé une très bonne semaine dans l'appartement de Kostantinos. Nous ne l'avons pas rencontré, mais comme prévu c'est Tamara sa voisine qui nous a gentiment accueillis. L'appartement est conforme aux photos, le petit balcon est vraiment très appréciable le matin ou en fin d'après midi quand la chaleur tombe un peu. D'ailleurs, l'appartement a la climatisation, ça aussi c'est appréciable! Quant à Agia Pelagia, c'est sans doute la ville du nord de la Crete que nous avons le plus aimée! La plage est vraiment jolie, avec une eau cristalline, des transats et parasols pour 2 euros la journée, et surtout de supers petits restaurants où l'on y mange vraiment tres bien! Tout ça a vraiment 1 minute a pied de l'appartement. Quelques boutiques et bars animent cette petite ville les pieds dans l'eau, et pour les courses des supers markets. Au pied de l'appartement se trouve aussi un loueur de voiture, pas mal pour une excursion a la journée! Bref, Agia Pelagia et l'appartement de Kostantinos sont idéals pour passer de bonnes vacances reposantes!

Le logement était parfait, propre et confortable ( climatisation +++). L'emplacement est idéal car vraiment a 20m de la plage et des commodités. L'hôte était disponible pour toutes questions et très agréable ! Un super séjour

Logement très fonctionnel à 1 min de la plage et de multiples restaurants délicieux

Отличное местоположение апартаментов, очень гостеприимные хозяева. Всё очень понравилось

A spacious beautifully designed apartment which is close to the central beach in Agia Pelagia and all the cafés. Dimitrios kindly organized the transfer from the airport and back. Thanks for the handcrafted box with local olive oil, it was really nice of you !

Dimitrio's apartment is central located and well equipped. The apartment has two balconies. Just on the corner there is a grocery store and a few minutes walk are the restaurants and the beach. The host are very friendly and helpful. They provided us with fresh fruits, drinks and food. Highly recommend Thanks a lot for that.

The house is fantastic! There are two bedrooms with air conditioned, two terraces with table where you can also dinner, the kitchen has everything you might need and more! Every room is very clean and the beach, tavernas and shops are very close to the house. Other great beaches are 2 kilometers from the house. Dimitris and Maria are very very friendly and kind. It's been a wonderful holiday! Thank you very much!!

Отдыхали в августе-сентябре 2016 семьей (2 взр+ 2 детей (5 лет и 5 мес). Очень довольны отдыхом. Замечательные апартаменты, спокойно, чисто, уютно, по-домашнему. Хорошие матрацы с водонепроницаемыми наматрасниками, что очень хорошо для семей с детьми. Удобное расположение, шаговая доступность до моря (пара минут, песчаный пляж, бухта, во время шторма на других пляжах- на этом реально купаться детям), магазина, остановки, ресторанов. В квартире имеется все необходимое для проживания, и даже больше. Особенно порадовал пылесос, утюг, фен, чайник и кофе-машина. Хороший wi-fi. 2 балкона, на которых приятно завтракать/обедать/ужинать (один теневой, один на солнечной стороне, есть зонт). Все фото реальные. Отдельное спасибо замечательным хозяевам Maria и Dimitrios. Доброжелательные, приятные, отзывчивые люди, которые всегда готовы помочь.Посоветовали нам рестораны, от которых мы были в восторге. С удовольствием будем советовать эти апартаменты друзьям, и готовы приехать не раз своей семьей.

Dimitrios e Maria sono stati due host molto cordiali e disponibili. Al nostro arrivo ci è venuta subito incontro Maria, la quale ci ha mostrato la casa, fornito tutte le informazioni che necessitavamo sull'uso degli elettrodomestici, wifi, ed anche per il parcheggio: il loro appartamento si trova all'interno di una via centrale delimitata da una sbarra e con possibilità di parcheggiare all'interno di questa zona ad accesso limitato o autorizzato, consigliamo di parcheggiare sullo sterrato, per evitare incomprensioni con i vicini. La casa è così come mostrata dalle foto, solo un pochino più piccola dell'idea che ci eravamo fatti, ma comunque resta una casa molto ben curata ed ospitale. Tutto era in ordine, pulito, e Maria al nostro arrivo oltre a farci trovare il frigorifero con alimenti utili per la colazione, ci ha accolte con dei dolci tipici cretesi. Insomma il nostro giudizio sulla casa e sugli host è più che positivo, e ci sentiamo di consigliarlo ad eventuali altri viaggiatori.

Our best vacations ever! Dimitris and his beautiful wife Maria are very nice and kind-hearted people. Very hospitable and attentive and it was our big pleasure to meet them! The apartment is very cozy and comfortable. You will find everything there! Air-conditioners, washing machine, vacuum cleaner, many stuff for cleaning, iron, ironing-board, hair-drier, coffee machine, TV, fridge, very good Wi-Fi. We had everything we needed. The kitchen is very good equipped. All the crockery, all pots and pans are new. Everything is clean and easy-to-use. You will find many bed linen, towels of different sizes, plaids and pillows (to choose the best for you) in the wardrobes. You will find really enough household goods, including even fumigators although we haven't met mosquitos there :) The beds are fine for good sleep and for having rest during midday siesta after beach and swimming. There are also 2 balconies in the apartment: a big one where we had family dinners in the evenings after sundown and one more balcony of smaller size where we had our morning coffee and breakfast. When we arrived, Maria met us with very delicious pastries made with local cheese. It was fantastic! She gave us her recommendations regarding local restaurants, places of interest an other useful features. We found as well eggs, butter, jams, fruits - in short - all necessary for our breakfast in the fridge. It was very opportunely as we arrived in the late evening and couldn't go to super-market. A pleasant surprise and gift was waiting us in the bathroom - a nicely decorated soap on the base of local olive oil. We never had such a warm welcome, so important for us and valuable nowadays. To summarize: comfortable, modern and tastefully furnished apartment, very bright, airy, fully equipped and beautifully decorated by Maria. It is excellent both for couples and for small families. We love this place and the house and the hosts and we hope to come back again.

Logement tres bien et trrs propre

Erg prettige plek. Georges is erg gastvrij en je voelt je erg welkom!

Bellevue is quite, cozy and has an amazing view on the coast. The position is perfect for exploring the neighbourhood. George was very welcoming and provided us a lot of very useful tips and suggestions!

This was an amazing airbnb experience. Our stay was incredibly affordable and George and his wife are two wonderful people. Everything was clean, the food was delicious, the view INCREDIBLE, and all at a great price.

Georges et sa femme sont vraiment très gentils et nous ont donné beaucoup de conseils pour les visites et repas. En plus, la femme de Georges parle français ! Top ! On est enchantés. Merci.

We had such a great time at his appartment, we have never seen such a nice, caring and helpful host. We would definately recommend his place. Crete is beautiful and he made our trip even more special!

George and his wife have been fantastic, my wife broke her leg and they have done everything they can to help, even down to bringing us bread. Accommodation is great with amazing views over the sea. They are both very friendly and welcoming, highly recommend a visit here.

Die Apartments sind sehr schön oberhalb des Ortes Ligaria gelegen. Über einen Trampelpfad ist man in 10 Min in Ligaria am Strand, wo sich auch Tavernen befinden. Der Norden ist sehr touristisch. So war auch der Strand von Ligaria voll mit Sonnenliegen. Einsame Strände gibt es hier nicht. Es ist eine Oase im Touristentrubel, mit ein paar kleinen Abstrichen: - Vom Clubhotel, das ein paar hundert Meter entfernt ist, dringt mehrmals am Tag (auch abends) für 1-3 Stunden laute Musik bis zu Georges Apartments. Auch aus Agia Pelagia und Ligaria hörte man abends die Beschallung hin und wieder. Einen Abend haben die direkten Nachbarn sehr laut und musikalisch gefeiert. Ich weiß nicht, ob das eine Ausnahme war. - Die Sauberkeit im Bad könnte besser sein. - Klimaanlage kostet 5 EUR extra. Bei dem Preis des Apartments hätte ich es inklusive erwartet. - Das Frühstück kostet 5 EUR pro Person, man sollte keine hohe Qualität erwarten. Alles in allem ist es ein wunderbarer Ort. Jedoch stehen Tourismus und Verdienen am Tourismus im Vordergrund.

George made us feel very welcome and was always available if we needed anything. Our apartment was clean and had fantastic views out over Ligaria bay. Towels and bedding were changed very regularly throughout our 2 week stay. Ligaria had a lovely beach which could be accessed using steps and a path from the apartments, it took us approximately 10 minutes get down to the beach. The pool was clean and well maintained with sunbeds and some parasols. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend Bellevue.

Sarakinos was very hospitable and responsive. He gave me accurate instructions how to get to the meeting point and picked me up with the car. Agia Pelagia is a cosy, quiet area (if you go in September). Apartment was nice with a big terrace, so you can see the sea. Sarakinos’ family lives downstairs and they can help you with any query.

Sarakinos made our stay really easy and helped us arrange transfers. Agia Pelagia is small and beautiful, a few minutes to the beach. Lovely people, great food, perfect weather, everything we wanted for a relaxing family holiday. The apartment was clean and perfectly suited to our needs. We would definitely stay again!

Nice place, everything was fine.

Sarakinos and his family was really nice and warm ! I enjoyed staying in their apartment a lot, it is exactly THAT close to the hidden beach behind. It takes around 20 mins to reach from airport, there are bus available, but i rented a car which i recommend to future guest to rent too, as there are free parking spots next to the apartment. Linen and blankets were provided. Clean apartment with lots of sunshine and sea breeze. aircon available upon request as well ! Supermarkets , souvenir stores, kebab stall, and gas stations are within 5-10 minutes reach. for internet however, was getting some trouble connecting to the wifi ( attention to IOS / iPhone user ) . The family was really communicative and helpful with the problem though ! would really love to re-visit again. thank you Sarakinos !

Die Herzlichkeit, mit der wir von Sarakinos und seinem Vater empfangen wurden, hat uns sehr gefreut. Unser Aufenthalt in der kleinen, einfach und zweckmässig eingerichteten, sauberen Unterkunft war sehr angenehm. Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis war gut. Auf dem grosszügigen Balkon, der zur Wohnung gehört, genossen wir jeweils einen Schlummertrunk. Das Dorf ist sehr touristisch, aber typisch griechisch, mit vielen guten Tavernen am Strand. Sarakinos hat sich um uns bemüht und uns auch gute Ausflugtipps gegeben. Danke für die Gastfreundschaft, wir hatten eine schönen Urlaub!

our stay in agia pelagia was really great! sarakinos and his family are very nice and friendly people. the apartment is very close to the beach. unfortunately, the beach is small and very crowded but the bay is great for snorkeling.

Good cheap apartment. Centrally located (right next to the town carpark). Small terrace with sea view over a few other apartments. Town beach is quite narrow but other beaches (walking distance) are nice. Lots of tavernas along the beach.

We had excellent door to door service from airport to our apartment. We were welcomed in a traditional way which was so nice. Our questions were always answered ans sound advice given. The accomodation was spacious and met all our needs. We had a brilliant time thank you to Sarakinos . Thank you , Leone and Jess.

Prijs kwaliteit was dit een goed verblijf. Warm welkom geheten door Nokolas en zijn vrouw. Propere kamers (keuken inrichting zeer pover, maar dat is eigen aan appartementjes op Kreta denk ik). Twee keer lekker gegeten ter plaatse van de BBQ en de oven ( prijs van de drank is iets te hoog). Fantastisch zwembad en niet te ver af van het strand ( linker strand te druk, het rechter strand vlak over de appts naar beneden is veel rustiger ).

Nous avons été très chaleureusement accueillis par Penny et sa famille. Ce sont des gens très simples et authentiques dont nous garderons un excellent souvenir. Le logement est propre, simple mais suffisant, excepté peut-être la salle de bain ( receveur un peu petit et pas de rideau de douche, à 4 et avec 2 enfants, la salle de bain devenait une vrai patogeoire!), literie très confortable. L'ensemble du domaine est charmant et très bien entretenu. Nous retiendrons surtout les rapports humains, les sourires de cette famille...

We very much enjoyed our stay at Pennystella. Nikko and Angela were very friendly. Almost like grandparents for our children. They made nice homemade food and wine. We had a relaxing time and will very much recomend this place for new guests! We will probably be coming back. Maybe next year!? :) Yngvild & Rune

Overall we had a great stay in Agio Pellagia in Crete. When we first arrived , it seemed they gave our room away. Within 20 minutes they had another room for us. We were under the impression that we were getting an apartment however Penny Stella is a hotel. I am not sure if our original room would have been bigger but the pictures definetly made the place look nicer than our first real live look ah the place. After accepting it was a hotel we had a great time. The host family, especially the older man are so friendly and caring, they definetly won us over. The AC was fantastic and water pressure great. They have a restaurant and which normally had pre set price, it was always delicious.

Kostas Directions were excellent, place was even better. This is hands down my new favorite place to hang my hat while in Agia Pelagia, a must see! It's walking distance to strand-beach restorant market etc,,,verry nice I had an amazing time and really enjoyed all the attention to detail at a good price. Thank you so much for the experience! Hope to come back soon! I can't recommend this place enough!

It was a nice stay! Thank you

We had an excellent stay here, and were greeted with a big warm smile and raki! The room was perfect for the two of us and very clean.

We loved, loved, loved our stay at Pennystella! The beach of Agia Pelagia can be reached within a short 10minute walk. The view is fantastic. I am always very surprised if the place looks the same as in pictures and pennystella definitely didn't let me down. It is not a fancy 5 star hotel but it is a nice and cozy place with equiped (and always clean) rooms, clean pool, beautiful view and very welcoming hosts. They serve fresh eggs which they collect from their own chickens. Oh and they also hooked us up with the car rental guy. Oh and how can I forget their dog, my friend's daughter loved him. This place is also perfect for familys as the pool is close to your room and you can pretty much open the door and jump in the pool and then go straight to the breakfast:)) There is not much of a public transport around there (or Crete for that matter) but I think there is a tourist bus stop across the hotel. I hope this is helpful for those who consider staying here. Thank you for everything. Ieva, Dace and Linda.

This was a fantastic flat in a very idilic location. Everything was well furnished, super clean and Vasilis was incredibly welcome. A brilliant place for anyone to say?

We felt very safe in the area. The house was literally steps from the beach. the pictures make the apartment look further away, but it was a brilliant surprise when we saw how close it was. The wifi can be a bit patchy sometimes, but this also meant that you weren't glued to your phone the whole time! We arrived at 12.30 at night as we had a late flight, and Vasilis's mother stayed up to let us know where the keys were, and the apartment was stocked with water, fruit, coffee and sugar. One night our taxis didn't arrive, so Vasilis's mother offered to bring us in to town. Overally they are very accommodating and brilliant hosts. I cannot recommend this apartment enough if you are looking for a quiet trip away.

Sol, playa y paz.. mucha paz!!!

The place is absolutly amazing. Incredible views and nice location. It's a little bit difficult to find, but with the coordinates is possible to arrive. The appartment was clean and very near of the beach. Totally recomendable!

The Apartment was very beautiful. The Host is very friendly. The place lay very good. For my experience, it was one of the best vacation that I can remember.

Superbe séjour ! L'endroit est plein de charme, la location se trouve dans le magnifique jardin de Giannis. Le logement est très bien équipé, Giannis prend même le soin de garnir le réfrigérateur avant l'arrivée ! Pendant le séjour il a été à nos petits soins tout en restant discret, mais toujours disponible en cas de besoin. C'est quelqu'un de très sympathique. Nous vous recommandons sans aucune hésitation cette location dans laquelle nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !

We had an excellent stay in Giannis'home. The house is very beautiful and quiet. We wish we could have stayed longer ! Thank you again Giannis :)

I enjoyed every minute in Giannis house. Giannis is amazing person and host, will help you with everything you might need for your vacation. House is very beautiful, newly build, fully equiped with high quality, with big veranda and amazing view. I will definitely stay there again when i come back to Agia Pelagia. Highly recommend. Thank you Giannis!

Our stay at Giannis home was very great. It was a beautiful place absolutely peaceful and perfect to fully enjoy holidays. The house was about 25 minutes from Heraklion airport, near to the sea, supermarkets and restaurants. We were happy to discover so many beaches, wonderful views. Giannis was very reactive, nice and available for anything required. He is a wonderful host. We will recommend this place at 100%.

In the apartament there is everything you need, and Giannis will help you if something go wrong! There is a beautiful panorama and the garden outside the home is beautiful too. We rent a car for go around the island, but don't worry by walk you can arrive to the supermarket or to the beach in a few minutes! And Heraklion is only 20 minutes far by car. I think that outside the apartament there was a bus stop. We would like to come back in Crete and it's sure that we'll book an other time this apartament, we love it and i think that you will love it too.

Gianni is very very helpful and accommodating! The apartment is beautifully outfitted, clean and modern. It also has a lovely, quiet, private and terrace with a fantastic view! The dogs are also very sweet :) and it is a short walk to the beach and restaurants. In short Gianni's was amazing!!!!!

Giannis' place is cosy, feels very private, and has everything you need and more - including a well-equipped kitchen, great outdoor terrace with a beautiful view to the sea, grill, parking... Giannis is an excellent host: speedy communication when needed, helpful, very generous.

Une véritable réussite, un hôte accueillant chaleureux discret et très disponible, prévenant et rempli d'attentions. Une véritable réussite pour une première, sans mauvaise surprise et un véritable coup de cœur

Popi was so helpful and met us from the airport. She brought us breakfast on the last day, homemade and delicious, the best we've had. She is a heartful and wonderful host. The apartment is very close to a quiet beach and very scenic. We had a wonderful time.

Popi gave my father and I an unforgettable experience in Crete. Her hospitality went above and beyond anything I could have hoped for. She picked us up at the airport, drove us to rent a car and welcomed us into the flat with drinks and snacks. The location is unbeatable and if you enjoy swimming in the ocean this is the ideal home for you. The village was beautiful and quiet. I would come back to stay at Popi's place any time. Thank you for a beautiful and peaceful trip. You are so kind and generous.

Just Amazing! We were so lucky to find Popi’s flat in Mades. Upon our arrival, Popi was there at the Airport to welcome us and she kindly drove us to our car rental company. Once onboard our car , we followed her car to a spectacular village called Mades. Once inside the flat, Popi had already prepared a delicious Cretan Salad, amazing selection of local cheeses, fruits and a very fresh Cretan white wine. Popi’s flat is really nice with plenty of space, very nice decoration and offer everything you need for a comfortable stay with an stunning view from her balcony, the beach is just few meter away on foot and the beach is amazing, small and not crowded, quiet and very relaxing, the rocks on the left side of the beach, takes you to a more quieter area and there is a small cave which provides easy access to the clear water and short distance swimming to reach an islet with a wonderful view from the top. From her flat, you can hear the waves splashing in the rocks and it is very relaxing. Popi was amazing with us, she also prepared a lovely and tasty Cretan lunch for us, with fresh and local ingredients from the region and we enjoyed it together from her balcony with a wonderful view. Being one Brazilian and one Italian, we felt ourselves so cozy and at home under our “Cretan Mama’s” attention :) We really enjoyed our stay at Popi’s flat, and so pleased to have meet her personally, she gave us all the necessary information and she was always available whenever we needed and looking after ourselves whenever she could , that was so kind and nice. If you want to enjoy a peaceful stay very close to the beach , away from the crowd, and under a wonderful Greek hospitality, you should choose Popi's flat . For sure we will come back more times. Thank you so much Popi for accepting us with your wonderful reception and care. See you next time ! With our best Regards :)

Our stay was amazing ! The apartment was just like the pictures : clean, and right next to the sea, great view from the balcony. The neighborhood is quiet and very enjoyable. Not far from the studio (about 10 minutes by foot) you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view of the surrounding bays. And about 20minutes by foot there is another very nice beach at Lygaria and some tavernas with very good typical food ! It's really nice to have a walk in the area around ! Popi was great, since we had no car, she picked us up and brought us back to the airport. We had some cheese and wine to welcome us a the apartment. She even brought us some typical food during our stay, she gave us a ride to visit another village in the north of Crete. We thank Popi for everything !! And we sincerely recommend this place !

Не хватает слов, чтобы выразить свою благодарность Popi! Отпуск был чудесной сказкой во многом благодаря этой чудесной женщине! Прекрасный, уютный домик в тихом, спокойном месте (но не вдали от цивилизации), оборудованный всем необходимым. Чудесное море, плеск волн в ночной тишине и потрясающая природа Крита! Гостеприимство и доброта Popi покорили нас с сестрой сразу и навсегда. Все, начиная со встречи в аэропорту, приготовленного для нас ужина, наших посиделок на террасе и вечеринки в Фоделе, заканчивая прощальным завтраком и проводами, было выше всяких похвал! Спасибо большое, Popi, за все! Мы вернулись домой, но сердце наше осталось в Маде, рядом с тобой!

Hello Popi it was à pleasure to stay this week in you appartement. You country is beautifull. Thank you also for your time and your explanations. I will recommend your appartement for everybody. All is clean , functional and the place close to the sea and to all the convenients markets.

Popi est tout simplement incroyable! Elle est venue nous chercher au port à notre arrivée et nous a conduite à l'aéroport pour notre départ. À l'arrivée dans l'appartement, un repas nous attendait!!! De la salade, des bouchées, des fruits, du formage! Elle est même venue en reporter quelques jours plus tard! Vue du balcon sur la plage. La plage est tranquille, le cartier aussi. Un voiture est idéale pour visiter la Crète, sinon plusieurs excursions sont offertes à partir d'un hôtel à quelques minutes, ainsi qu'un bus pour Heraklion. Magnifique séjour!!

Merveilleux séjour. Popi a été très accueillante. Logement face à la mer avec tout l'équipement nécessaire et de nombreuses attentions dans la semaine (petit plat, rose local) elle est venue nous chercher et nous ramener à l'aéroport, elle a su nous conseiller, pour une première expérience sur Airbnb on ne pouvait tomber sur meilleure hôte. Merci encore pour tout Popi

Vasilis was extreme;y helpful and helped us with car rental booking; recommendations of places to visit in Crete. His tips made our stay in Crete very enjoyable

This was my first time using air bnb and Vasilis made sure it was a positive experience. He was extremely helpful and friendly, and answered all of my questions within minutes of me asking. He even arranged for a taxi to pick us up from the apartment and bring us to the airport, as we had a 6:30 am flight home. The apartment was small, but still enough space for my friend and I. The main downside was that the shower was VERY tiny (maybe 2-3 ft x 2-3 ft/ not even 1 meter x 1 meter) and the water pressure was pretty bad. The beach takes about 10 seconds to walk to, which was absolutely perfect and exactly what my friend and I were looking for. If you want to relax and kick back, I would recommend staying here with Vasilis.
