Guest Reviews
- Slawomir (8/5): Wszystko ok - Lokalizacja, czystosc, goscinnosc gospodarzy.
- Satu (9/5): - Tulimme uudestaan tuttuun hotelliin. Meidät otettiin ystävällisesti vastaan. Hotellin omistajat auttoivat meitä, kun tarvitsimme apua. Meillä oli turvallinen olo. Viihtyvyyteen kuului kolme lähirantaa, patikointipolut vanhaan Haniaan ja ruokakaupat, sillä teimme omat aamu-ja iltapalat. Paikallisia busseja oli helppo käyttää ja ihmiset olivat ystävällisiä.
Hotelli ja sen piha oli siisti. Lähtiessämme aamuhämärissä lentokentälle hotellin emäntä tuli vielä toivottamaan meille hyvää matkaa. Arvostimme kovasti tätä ystävällistä elettä. Meillä oli hyvä loma. Muutamana yönä naapurihuoneesta kuului häiritsevää melua. Tätä hivenen ihmettelimme, sillä edellisellä kerralla hotellissa ei kuulunut naapurihuoneista oikeastaan mitäään häiritsevää.
- Jean-Stéphane (8/5): - L'accueil Le petit déjeuner sous-traité
- Petra (10/5): - Die Lage zum Meer und den Geschäften. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Kann über nicht meckern,komme gerne wieder. In der Beschreibung auf Ihrer Seite stand, daß tv im Zimmer ist,das war leider nicht der Fall...bei diesen Temperaturen benötige ich keinen tv, ist nur ein Hinweis.
- Lars Lilleør (9/5): -
- Roman1974 (9/5): Najważniejsze że była piękna pogoda i strzaskałem się na mahoń podczas gdy w Polsce ciągle lało. - Super właściciele zawsze uśmiechnięci. Kocham takie podejście, chce się żyć. Wszystko ok.
- Tetyana (8/5): Very positive experience at a nice place a few steps away from the beach - Zinovia is a very nice place, we are staying there for the second time. This time we stayed in the newly built apartment: it's quite compact, with one double bed and an additional convertible. The apartment is sufficient for 2 people, properly equipped and furnished. The beach is probably 100 meters away, the bus stop is 5 minutes walking, there are shops and good restaurants in the area. The hosts are a very nice and friendly family, always available for any questions. Check-in and out are pretty flexible, it is possible to leave the luggage there if needed. Overall it is a very good experience and we will definitely come back. Nothing to mention
- Bojana (10/5): - Our family stay in the beautiful Zinovia was the best possible vacation thanks to the wonderful hosts. Their attentiveness to all our needs, which we sought and which we did not, is incredible for a vacation in the middle of the season. They gave us a larger room than the one we had booked, because we had a small baby with us. They were there for everything we needed. The location is great, just a few minutes from several magical beaches, a wonderful apartment, which is cleaned every day, and a large yard full of fantastic plants are the reasons why we will definitely come back here sometime. I must especially emphasize the magical owner Stella, whose charm has a healing effect on the guests, on her plants, and beautifies the entire stay.
- Erdem (10/5): If you’re looking for a holiday where you’ll miss the garden cats, the sound of crickets, and the waves, Zinovia is the - We had a wonderful stay at Zinovia Apartments. The room was spacious enough for two people, comfortable, and had good air conditioning. The family running the place is truly lovely - special thanks to Stella, Haris, and the hardworking grandma who takes care of the garden 🫶🏻 The location is perfect, with many restaurants and markets around, and a nice cafe(Pink Velvet). There are frequent buses passing nearby that take you directly into the city(21 & 15). Everything was excellent and well worth the price.

- Методи (10/5): -
- McDougall (10/5): Fantastic! - The hosts at Zinovia were fantastic. Very attentive, cleaning the apartment daily with fresh towels. I felt very comfortable and calm as a solo-female traveller. Location is PERFECT! 1 minute walk to the beach. I'll definitely visit again, and recommend Zinovia to everyone.
- Viktor (9/5): -

- Sylwia (10/5): Great place and fantastic people - highly recommend! - Absolutely amazing hosts- very friendly, kind , polite and helpful. Superb location- literally 1min to the beach. Very clean apartment, with towels and sheets changed regularly. All the essentials in the room. We arrived late at night - and we were welcome nicely ❤️ Definitely highly recommended and can’t wait to come back next year! Thank you so much for such a lovely stay☺️ Nothing- everything was perfect 👌
- Gerhard (10/5): - Alles tip top, sehr freundliche Vermieter.
- Epimenidis (10/5): Everything was fine - It was quiet and close to the beach. I would appreciate a power outlet on the balcony, so I can power my laptop.

- Gyula (10/5): Exceptional - The room was simple but excellent.The owners were very nice. I recommend to everyone.🤗❤️
- Kornel (10/5): Exceptional - Nice clean apartment close to the beach and taverns. Very friendly and helpful family. Thanks for everything Haris and Stella.
- Michael (9/5): Great place, amazing view from upper rooms - The view from the upper rooms is very nice. Friendly host. Large room if you're travelling alone. It's close to where the bus from Rethymno stops, but be aware that you have to walk a very steep road (between the supermarket and the cafe). I was there for 4 nights, but didn't get clean bed sheets or towels. It was okay for me, but for others it might be an issue (however, you can probably just ask for it, which I didn't:)
- Christina (9/5): Convenient stay near the beach and in easy reach of Chania old town - Lovely hosts who warmly welcomed us and didn't mind our very early departure, very clean, quiet building, lovely plants all over the garden, proximity to the beach and to public transport (direct bus to Chania old town).
- Rodrigo (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice place, cozy and clean, ando close to the sea. The family staff is very friendly and helpful. I would come back!
- Irene (7/5): Lovely people, very close to and easy access to excellent beach, very clean, too small for 3 - Very friendly and helpful hosts. Changed towels and cleaned daily. Shower tiny, third twin bed was just sofa bed,and air conditioning positioned too close to and above bed.
- Per (8/5): Simple apartment , nice and clean with great service - Very friendly family , with great service
- Ana (10/5): Amaizing - Very nice place close to everything.Very clean and well maintained extremely friendly host.Thank you so much for having us there.We definitely will be back there

The hosts are super kind, friendly and supportive, always asking if you need anything, which makes you feel as if you were among your best friends or family :) thank you for the watermelon and tomatoes:) we felt safe and well taken care of, hope to come back to Zinovia very soon. everything was perfect
- İlke (10/5): Exceptional - Super hospitable family, clean facilities, great location a stone’s throw away from multiple beaches. Loved everything.
- Mille (10/5): - Very kind and helpful host. The apartment was spacious with air conditioning that cooled the room quickly. Large place to park behind gate if traveling by car. Area was great with lots of restaurants, the beach within walking distance, and Chania just a short drive away. Perfect for a relaxing vacation.
- Camilla (9/5): Superb - Nice and friendly owners
Clean apartment
Near to the beach
Quiet location
- Ilya (10/5): All you need close to the beach - Very quiet appartment with all you need, comfortable bed, kitchen utensils, good wifi and beautiful garden. Beach and shops nearby. Very friendly and kind owners. Absolutely recommended and coming back again.
- Jessica (3/5): Not suitable for a young family of 4. - The hosts were very welcoming and the location was very good and close to a beach. The accommodation wasn't suitable for a family of 4. The beds were very hard. As it was April when the sun went down it was very cold at night, only thin blankets on the beds. There is a gap under the main door. It was quite noisy with other guests going to and from the property, opening the gate.
- Teodora (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sergio (8/5): Very good - Good location. Haris gave me a warm welcome and he was very polite.
- Monika (10/5): Exceptional - This accomodation was great. the stuff were really helpful and hostility. The room was big with balcony, near by was the great beach and restaurants. Everything with booking was like from the future, so modern :) i like it. I really recommend this nice place :)
- Richard (9/5): Superb -
- Costa (10/5): - Great service that extended beyond accommodation. Their advice on restaurants, bakery, beaches, supermarkets was great as were the directions given. If you prefer not to drive transport is readily available close by and the beaches are very close. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
- keith (10/5): best family apartments in crete - EXCELLENT, just RELAX .
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Close to the beach and to nature, you can hear different birds singing - very peaceful. In you travel in the spring months and there is bad weather, ask for extra heating and blankets (we did and it was confortable).
