Marirena’s apartment was lovely and perfect for what we needed!
She was a great host and made us feel very welcome - greeting us with a few treats such as homemade cake as well as letting us stay a bit later on our day of departure.
The apartment was well situated, very close to 2 large supermarkets which combined with the flats kitchen facilities allowed us to self cater for the week.
The balcony comes with a view of the sea and the mountains - and a walk of about 200m brings you out onto a beautiful sandy beach that is free from the sun loungers and umbrellas which take over further along.
The apartment is very close to bus stop with routes to Heraklion port, centre and airport as well as the Knossos express which allowed us to get around without a car.
Overall this was the perfect find for a nice holiday and we would definitely recommend!
