If you are going to Crete and flying into Heraklion then look no further for the perfect place to stay. The apartment has everything you need and is perfectly located: two-minute walk to the supermarket and bus station, and a five-minute walk to the beach and it is on a quiet side street. The balcony has a view of the mountains and is perfect for breakfast outside - even in November. I stayed at Christine’s apartment for four weeks and time just flew by. Bus transportation is also great. Bus number 6 will take you from the Airport or from Heraklion city to Amadoura and bus number 1 is the return route. The bus goes about every 30 minutes and the cost is 1,70 Euros if you buy a ticket at the booth, or at the supermarket. Buying a ticket on the bus will cost you 2,50 Euros. Restaurants are also around the corner. But the best thing about this place are Christine and her mom. I have never found kinder and more helpful hosts than Christine and her mom. Wonderful to talk to and most likely the most hospitable family on Crete. I was fortunate enough to be invited to a community gathering to make Raki and I was even allowed to bring my two friends, who stayed at a different AirBnB. We tried local specialties, which the families here had prepared for the feast - delicious! It was one of the most authentic experiences you can get. My friends still talk about it. Sorry about the LONG review but I just cannot say enough good things about Christine and her family and this place - thank you for everything and I hope to be back.
