Guest Reviews

• Gilles (10/5): Culture, nature et calme dans un très bel espace - Le logement est superbement rénové et le cadre naturel est magnifique alors qu’on n’est qu’à quelques kilomètres d’Heraklion. Idéal bien sûr pour visiter le site de Cnossos mais également la région d’Archanes que nous a conseillée Katerina. Nous avons aussi visité le musée très intéressant consacré à Nikos Kazantzakis, auteur de Zorba le Grec, situé pas très loin, à Mirtia. Rien à dire
• Kathleen (10/5): Thank you Katerina and Denis for a wonderful stay. - The house is lovely and comfortable with a complete kitchen (lots of tea and coffee options), nice bathroom, great dining and living room areas and with a rooftop patio that must be great when the weather is warm. The hosts were very responsive - letting us in late and recommending a walk and good restaurants. We left some clothes but they’re helping us get them back. Nothing except the mattress is very firm if that matters to you. But the couch is a comfortable replacement.
• Simon (10/5): -
• Sabine (10/5): - Maison bien équipée, jolie décoration intérieure, spacieuse. On se croirait chez soi. Palais de Knossos accessible à pied. Parking à disposition.
• Nikki (10/5): Beautiful apartment 2 minute walk from Knossos - What a wonderful property and beautiful hosts. A large spotless apartment with modern bathroom, lovely linen and all of the facilities that you would need to self cater. Wonderful rooftop terrace to sit in the afternoon and evening. Two minute stroll to Knossos but on a side street so nice nice and quiet. Parking spot immediately across the road made self driving option perfect. We met our wonderful hosts when we checked in and they provided us with excellent recommendations to explore the area. Late checkout was perfect for our itinerary. Highly recommended for short or long-term stay. Nothing!
• Jan (10/5): - Świetna lokalizacja w klimatycznej wsi, 5 minut pieszo od słynnego pałacu w Knossos, 5 min samochodem od Heraklionu. Apartament gustownie urządzony i dobrze wyposażony, gospodarze bardzo gościnni.
• Francesco (10/5): -
• Riccardo (9/5): - Very quiet and lovely place, staff was awesome, rooms are very comfortable and clean. Highly recommended. Private parking is also available Riccardo
• Myriam (10/5): Dommage que nous ne soyons restées que 3 nuits - Très bien situé à deux pas du site de Knossos. A votre descente du ferry c'est tout droit devant vous pour Knossos. Maison au calme, très propre, aménagée avec beaucoup de goût, bons équipements, tout est neuf et place de stationnement en face de la maison. C'était parfait. Seul bémol, nous sommes arrivées très tôt le matin avec le ferry et il n'y a pas eu possibilité d'entrer avant 15H. Nous en avons profité pour aller visiter à la "fraîche" le site qui se trouve juste en contrebas de la route. Très belle terrasse au-dessus de l'appartement. J'espère que les plantations sur la terrasse dont nous avons pris soin se portent bien. Amitiés à Caterina.
• Frédéric (10/5): -
• OLGA (10/5): Como en casa - La atención de los anfitriones. La casa es fantástica pero nada comparable a que te esperen a altas horas de la noche para recibirte.
• PILAR (8/5): Casa cómoda muy cerca del Palacio - La azotea y el salón. El café buenísimo. La cama superior era un colchón muy delgado; deberían poner uno de verdad, grueso.
• laura (10/5): -
• Marco (9/5): -
• Lorenzo (9/5): - Posizione perfetta per visitare il palazzo di Cnosso e a soli 10 Min di auto per il centro città. Accoglienza, pulizia punti forti. L'appartamento ha tutto il necessario per poter stare bene. Parcheggio comodo. Unica cosa migliorabile: il materasso del letto sul soppalco è molto sottile, per un adulto risulta scomodo.
• Joanna (9/5): Comfortable stay so very close to Knossos Palace! - We love the proximity to the Knossos Palace and it makes such a difference to be so close and be able to head to the palace early in the morning before the hordes of tourists arrive!! The house was comfortable and good for our family of 4; it has a working air-con and fans for a hot summer day, making it comfortable for sleeping at night. The hosts were friendly, warm and generous! There’s also private parking so dinner options and Heraklion are just a short drive away! We preferred the quietness of this house to the chaos of Heraklion!
• Fiona (8/5): Well located for a trip to Knossos Palace but save money by bringing your own meal - Location straight across from Knossos Palace, private parking where parking is scarce and fully equipped house so you can cook and wash & dry clothes - an absolute benefit they leaves you with more time and cash for your holiday. Huge numbers co e to the Knossos Palace any time from 10am so staying here means you get t ok see it quicker and less congested by other tourists before heading onto your travels. Nothing that was the fault of the owners but … The food at one taverna was rubbish. The other taverna barely opened. They really only cater to locals smoking and having coffee and drinks. Closing early means you need to bring the makings of a meal with you.
• Kahurangi (9/5): Superb - Great set up, lots of room, love the rooftop deck! Short walk to Knossos archaeological site as well as a nice restaurant for lunch (Pasiphae). The host met us at arrival and was very quick and responsive in fixing an issue with the water. Parking was available for us which was handy. Would definitely stay again.
• James (9/5): A clean, comfortable home from home close to the palace of Knossos. - The location is perfect for visiting the palace of Knossos. It is comfortable and has a well equipped kitchen. Which is useful as the 2 or 3 eating places in the village do not open in the evening. The weather wasn’t great while we were there (it rained)so we were glad to have a home from home. Nothing
• Jamal (9/5): Superb - Very very decent rent. Good value for money. Very nice rooms, practical details for guests. Great place to stay for longer periods of time. I will return in December. *Knossos is not only Minoan Palace, it is also a very quiet and nice village. I didn't know that.
• Nikolaos (10/5): Cozy, Comfy, and Simply Superb - I had an absolutely amazing stay at this place! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly cozy—exactly what I needed. The hostess was wonderful: kind, attentive, and always available if I needed anything. One of the highlights for me was how reliable the internet connection was. As someone who works remotely, that’s a big deal—and it worked flawlessly throughout my stay. The whole setup made it so easy to be productive during the day and relax in the evenings. And the terrace? Just wow. It was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for winding down with a coffee or catching some fresh air while working. Truly a remarkable place. I’d come back in a heartbeat!
• Carmagnola (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alix (10/5): Exceptional - We a problem with the key and the host was super helpfull. The location is perfect for visiting the palace of Knossos and still rather close to Heraklion center. The appartment is very clean and enjoyable with the terasse upstairs. The parking is big, just in front of the housing and safe. The neighbourhood is also very friendly as we even got invited into a party. We would higlhy recommand staying there !! The view on the terrasse is not as good as we hoped, but it was still enjoyable.
