We chose this apartment as our honeymoon destination based on the other reviews. Because of this we had high expectations but the apartment and especially its surrounding were even better than we expected!
The apartment is the closest to the beach in a building of four apartments. Next to the building is the pool and the restaurant+bar area and their sunbeds. The private patio of this apartment is really close to the beach and laying there feels private as the beach wasn't that crowded (Aug 2022) and there are no sunbeds between the patio and the beach - just the sand. Some people would walk by every now and then but it seemed to us that overall this isn't a beach were many come with their own blankets and would place them between the patio and the sea.
The pool was really nice and easy to use as it is really close to the apartment. We especially liked the view one has when taking a dip into the pool: the sea and island close by look amazing.
The restaurant+bar is really good - we enjoyed the food and the drinks a lot. They have a lot of Greek food and the dishes were the best we had at Crete.
The environment is cozy, especially compared to the busy main street of Agia Marina just near by. Service was super friendly and helpful. They also deliver food and drinks to the apartment's patio which was super nice and we recommend having dinner this way as the sun sets very beautifully when sitting at the patio.
As the apartment is so close to the beach, sand comes inevitably inside. As the cleaning lady comes by every day it isn't a problem. The apartment had a fridge which we found very helpful. We feel this apartment was worth every penny!
