Kyriakos and Dina are wonderful hosts and the apartment is beautiful. It's not that big, but then again you will be spending most of the time outside anyways since the beach is only about 200-300 m away. But when you do spend time inside you will find everything you need. A kitchen equipped with all the essentials and a nice, big and comfy bed. And the best part after coming inside from a hot day is the air conditioning so you can get a good nights sleep. The two of them have also provided some nice touches such as shampoo and soap and a broom so you can sweep up all the sand you brought in from the beach.
Analipsi is also a nice little town. Lots of nice restaurants (especially Asterias and Marina) and you can even snorkel in the water and see some fish and sea urchins. There is an inexpensive bus line which can take you from Heraklion to Malia.
If you need some more tips or would just like to have a nice conversation with wonderful people, you need to not look further than your hosts. Whether you want to know what you should see for sightseeing or where to eat or where the next supermarket is, Kyriakos and Dina have you covered.
This has been our favourite apartment and also favourite hosts while using Airbnb and we can only reccomend staying here!
