Our Nymphes apartment with private pool was wonderful and we had a fantastic, relaxing, peaceful holiday. Pepy is a wonderful host who will help you with anything you need. She kindly arranged our taxi pick up from the airport and local car hire the following morning and gave us the exact price in advance.
The accommodation is absolutely as described and looks exactly like the photos. The temperature reached 31 degrees whilst we were here but the lovely breeze you get up on our hillside makes it extremely pleasant. The bed is extremely comfortable, it’s really quiet, the kitchen is tiny but equipped for everything you need (we especially enjoyed squeezing oranges and making fresh coffee every morning!) and the lounge and outside area is spacious, airy and perfect.
As the description says, you definitely need a car whilst you are here and it’s the best way to explore the area. We ventured into Iraklio wine country and saw some spectacular scenery and tasted some incredible wines at Bakaliko - a wonderful cafe/restaurant in Archanes village square (leafy and traditional and well worth a visit) where for €15 each you can taste 4 different wines, described to you by the owner and for an extra €8 you can share a cute little cheese board with chutney.
We loved our holiday at Nymphes and we will definitely be back!
