Guest Reviews
- Astrid (10/5): -
- Guy (10/5): - Gastvrijheid
- Capecchi (10/5): - Vacanza super,posto veramente bellissimo, immerso nella natura, perfetto per raggiungere le spiagge più belle di Creta. Appartamento accogliente, pulito, proprietario molto gentile.
Torneremo sicuramente
- Celine (9/5): -
- Elodie (10/5): -
- Veronica (7/5): Molto particolare e romantico - Bellissima location molto particolare e romantica Abbiamo avuto l’inconveniente che non c’era acqua calda quando abbiamo fatto la doccia e non l’assistenza non è sul posto
- Ines (8/5): -
- Leroy (10/5): Magnifique lieu de vacances - Magnifique endroit où passer des vacances, beaucoup de charme, tranquilité, piscine très agréable, petites attentions des hôtes, plages accessibles en seulement 20 min en voiture
- Karol (9/5): We totally recommend Traditional Apartments Elafos, I'm sure we will return in the future! -
- Joachim (9/5): Superb -
- Ouedraogo (9/5): Superb -
- Meisoon (10/5): Wish we stayed longer - Great place to stay in the mountain, we stayed for three nights.
A generous and helpful host, All of us enjoyed the place. Thanks😊
- Steffi (10/5): Exceptional - This is one of the most marvelous places I've ever been. Such a quiet place and extremely charming. The studios are built in a way you have privacy. The room is quite big and has everything you need. The bathroom is so beautiful and has a very nice shower. They use such great elements to make the environment more authentic. I particularly liked the old painted closets and the hammocks outside which made you feel very relaxed considering the view and the concert of the crickets. The pool (with it's view on the surrounding mountains) isn't quite big, but definitely enough for cooling down. The owner is an incredible host! He spoiled us with fresh figs, grapes, pastries. Every morning there's this friendly lady coming to ask if everything is okay and if you need something.
Couldn't have wished for a better place to stay. Absolutely loved everything about it!
Also, it is an excellent location to explore the west side of Crete!
- Laurie-anne (10/5): Amazing spot! We had a lovely two days there, in the fresh mountain air. - I loved the peace, quiet and calm of the house. It's a wonderful break from the harsh sun on the coasts, but still at a perfect distance to Elafonissi (about 20 min drive) and other beaches for a morning or afternoon dip, with many great taverns and traditional product shops on the way.
- Michela (10/5): Exceptional -
- Beatriz (10/5): Exceptional -
- Carina (10/5): Perfect stay in nature - The houses are in a nice and quiet place, next to the mountains. It is a bit hidden, when you come with the car, especially later in the evening. The entire property was very clean and very nicely set up with the pool, the houses/ flowers and sunbeds. We arrived later in the evening and couldn't find our house directly since it was very dark in the area
- Benjamin (9/5): Superb -
- Heini (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rolandas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Les (9/5): Superb -
- Stuart (9/5): Lovely countryside setting. - Lovely apartment “ cottages” restored by Mary on her Grandfather’s land. Simple, clean and comfortable with good sized kitchen. Lovely setting in peaceful
Location and a short drive to Elefonisi. Children really enjoyed the little pool. Mary is a delightful host. There is no facility for food and drinks so do bring your own. Mary brought us breakfast on request but this was but the norm.
- Campbell (10/5): Fantastic family holiday in a mountain retreat traditional style house. - Fantastic traditional style house done to a modern spec. Facilities very good and finish of property to a high standard. Size of property was impressive for our family of 3, split over two levels. Surrounding gardens beautifully maintained and pool, Sun loungers and hammocks great for enjoying this retreat up in the hills of SW of Crete. A fantastic base for exploring the beaches and mountain villages of this part of the island and close enough to easily visit the likes of Ellafonisi beach. A special mention for the host Mary though she was so friendly and accommodating with plenty of good info for the surrounding area, made us feel super welcome and always available if need be on site or via phone. Nothing, we’d come back and also recommend to friends who do similar style driving holidays
- Andrea (8/5): Very good -
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional - First of all, Mary is amazing host and person. She is the cherry on top of the cake. Super helpful and nice. You can write her with any query.
Second, the place is big, spacious and well located. It`s only 20-25 min from Elafonissi beach by car.
Good, solid furniture. Bed is comfortable. And there are some books. AC works really well. Big shower. And Netflix was a pleasant surprise. We loved everything. No complains at all.
