The owners made absolutely certain that our stay was not only safe (they delayed our check-in slightly to do extra cleaning) but also special. A bottle of wine, along with fresh fruit, awaited us in the kitchen, and a box of chocolates was placed on our pillows. The recently updated bathroom was a lovely surprise following our stay in a traditional stone house in Elounda. The apartment is in convenient walking distance of downtown Ágios Nikólaos as well as a mere six minutes from Kimzu Sea Lounge, which became our favorite bar/restaurant/beach. It is also mere minutes from a large grocery store. The area felt as safe in the middle of the night as it did at noon, and that extended all the way to the marina. I cannot recommend this property highly enough.
