About this property
Housing Unit, close to the sea
The Housing Unit is located only 15 km east from Heraklion ( 15 minutes drive on the high way ). It's only 300 meters from the beach and it's sorounded by flowers and olive trees. It has a private entrance and country yard and also a shower outside, which can be used when return from swimming. The area is quite and you can take many walks around to discover the nature. Also in short distance you can find supermarkets, coffee bars and little shops.
In Heraklion you can visit the palace of Knossos, the historical and archaiological museums, the old town of Heraklion with the Lions Square , the Loggia , the Venetian Harbor etc.
Cretan Aquarium , one of the biggest and most interesting Aquariums in the Mediterranean Sea, is only 1km west of our location.
Since we are located in the middle of the island , it makes it ideal for daily excursions all over the island.

Our stay at Manos Housing Unit was a joy. The unit was very clean, modern, everything needed was there. Of particular note is that Manos was a fabulous host, having taken up contact with us a week before our stay and again a couple days before our arrival, as he had promised. He provided excellent instructions for arrival (both in writing and per video), very pleasant and professional communication. We can highly recommend Manos and his apartment!

quiet and clean place to stay; excellent communication; modern apartment; 5 min to beach
we stayed in the apartment in the beginning of September (10 days stay)and we found the place very quiet (which matched our needs) - the nearest beach is 3-5 min away and there were not many tourists around (although we travelled around the crete a lot - it was a relaxing place to return for a break); owner was very helpful - met us on the airport and we followed him (by rented car) all the way to the apartment (driving time from the airport is about 20 min); he was also very responsive to all of our queries; complementary snacks and drink on our arrival; we enjoyed the shower outside the house!!! the only disadvantage was lack of washing machine - so if you staying for longer you could ask about alternative. otherwise - we would recommend
