Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This modern apartment is just a five-minute walk from the nearest beach, with sleek furnishings and space for alfresco dining. We think it's a great choice for families, as your host can provide a free cot and high chair during your stay, and furry friends are welcome. You'll want a car here for exploring the area, whether it's the city of Heraklion with its Venetian Port and the Palace of Knossos, or the nearby town of Hersonissos, where you'll find delicious cuisine and a number of historical attractions.

Home truths
There is free on-street parking outside this home. Due to its location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
Your host can provide a free cot and high chair here if you're travelling with little ones.
Well-behaved pets are welcome to join you here.
There is space for six guests here, but the maximum occupancy is still four.
Climbing stairs will be required during your stay – there are six steps up to the entrance of the home.
This home is in an apartment building, so there is the potential for some noise from the street and from neighbours during your stay.
There is no door or wall to separate the main bedroom from its en-suite bathroom, so privacy will be limited.
