Maria is one of a few gems out there... Going over and above what is required to make you feel at home. She was very good in her communication, exceptional in fact. Check in was the easiest ever with lots of tips on local eateries and attractions, which turned out to be fantastic. The apartment is perfectly situated near everything for easy access to all restaurants, shopping and sight seeing. We loved our short stay there, which set us up for a fantastic holiday. I can highly recommend this apartment, you will not regret booking it. It also has a lift, which is great when you travel with luggage for 3 weeks! Should we ever get back to Heraklion, I will most definitely book it again.
