If you are looking to stay in Crete and explore the beaches in the west such as Elafonisi, Falarnassa & Balos then look no further. Kallimento apartments has it all! We were very satisfied with our stay, we stayed 5 nights in Kallimento 2, from arrival to departure everything was exceptionally outstanding - our host Eleni provided us with everything the description says and the pictures are exactly how the apartment is. The service they provided during our stay couldnt of been better, cleanliness is one of the most important factors we consider when staying away and this was truly superb, the apartment gets cleaned every day! Eleni is very welcoming and made us feel welcomed immediately also we cannot forget to mention her mother Dimitra - wonderful lady. Lovely family always around if you need anything. We would highly recommend having a rental car in Crete as it is the best way to explore around the roads are safe and easy to get around. In terms of Kallimento apartments the location is very close to the small town in kissamos which also has beautiful restaurants. We have had the best time in Crete. Thank you Eleni & Dimitra, we hope to be back!
