We visited Heraklion only as a stopover before catching a ferry to Naxos but we wish we had spent more time there. During our short stay we saw so many beautiful sights and experienced a vibrant city with a deep history. The communication with Mary and Marin before and during our short stay was greatly appreciated, and we were particularly grateful for all the tips on choosing a restaurant for dinner. The apartment is a sensational space, well appointed and extremely comfortable. Mary and Marin were great hosts.
