About this property
House of Emotions/ Apartment "Helios" Sitia Crete
First floor apartment of a fully renovated two-storeyed building of the 60s, a few minutes walk from Kazarma fortress and very near to the center. It belongs to the old town neighbourhoods. Strolling down the scenic streets to the seaside with the shops and restaurants is a real pleasure. The space is decorated with care and good taste. The apartment can be combined with the one downstairs (apartment "Rodanthi"), if two families or companies wish to be near eachother, but independently.
The space
This house reminds me of the perfect summers of my youth ("House of Emotions" is named after that). So Ι renovated it with love and care keeping some vintage pieces of furniture and family photos but giving them a new life .
Some convinient facilities are placed in every room to make your stay better. There is a terrace on top and can be used if one wishes.
The house is in walking distance from the beach and the old town-center. From the airport you can come by taxi , paying a standard of 9 €. From the bus station the taxi charges 5 €, baggages fair included.
Guest access
The entrance is on the road. After you unlock the door, you need to take the stairs up to the first floor where there is a safety door for the small children. The flat has no more steps inside it and it is totally for your use: One spacious master bedroom, a medium size kitchen fully equiped , another bedroom with a big table for various uses and a spacious bathroom. There is a comfortable balcony and also another stairway is leading to the terrace behind locking door. You can use the terrace if you so wish.
Interaction with guests
Unfortunately I am not living permanently in Sitia, but I will always be available on the chat for any questions and imformation needed . Nevertheless there is a person nearby, who will be available if any problem appears. She will be present to deliver the key and guide you through the house if your arriving is at a reasonable time (not too early /not too late), or else you will find the key in a special key-box .
Other things to note
There is a terrace upstairs you can use for having a better view arround or for getting a suntan. Of course if there are any children they should be taken care of while staying on the terrace. Also the apartment has a spacious balcony for you to enjoy your breakfast or smoke if you wish, since smoking is something i would not like to be done in the house.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Your host
I am a mother of two grown up daughters , an architect who chose the manufacturing and trading business of artistic objects, always been led by emotion in choosing one's path. I like walking in the countryside ,drawing and making my own dolls and decorative faces. I love dancing tango as well !
Why they chose this property
The "House of Emotions" belongs to the family since 1960 . I have spent most of the summers and other vacation periods of my youth there. So it includes my best memories and emotions. Ι renovated it with love and care keeping some vintage pieces of furniture and family photos but giving them a new life . Now it is as good as new but also having the energy of a happy home through time.
What makes this property unique
The neighbourhood has a past too. It belongs to the old town of Sitia. The road with the steps infront of the one of the two facades of the house is very scenic , painted white with plants along the sides. The house has a personality. Nice colors on the walls and on the old fashioned French shutters. The two appatments ,"Helios" and "Rodanthi" that constitute the house are both for rent, so two families related to eachother wishing to stay close but indepentently ,can join bookings.
