This accommodation is perfectly located within the heart of the old town and city wall of Heraklion.
It is a beautiful home tucked away just off a main road, but in a nice quiet spot. It is spacious with beautiful interior, very clean and well fitted out with all facilities, a perfect place to relax after a day of exploring, and there is also a lovely private enclosed courtyard for relaxation.
From here you can virtually walk to most places of interest or catch a local bus to go out further.
In just a short walk you will find all of the modern and old shops, bars and restaurant with plenty of activity and interest.
We found the area known as the Lion square to be the main focal point for entertainment, but with lots of other alleyways to find and enjoy.
Our hostess Christiana was wonderful, very welcoming and considerate to the point of picking us up from the airport despite our late arrival. She provided us with home made lemon cake, home made jam and home made lemonade concentrate all made from locally grown lemons, and also provided some olives. Cristiana gave us an overview of the facilities and provided a very informative guide book which she compiled herself, with lots of information and contacts.
Our charming hostess and her lovely home ranks as one of the best we have stayed in and would recommend it to anyone wishing to relax, enjoy and discover what Crete has to offer.
