All lie within few-minutes walking distance. The old town and the popular Venetian harbor is only a fifteen-minute walk away, rendering a car obsolete, as everything that is beautiful about our city is within reach. The 15 sq-metre, fully equipped room is part of your 60 square-metre private space with adjoining bathroom, a private furnished patio with a lofted view to the sea and even its own fully equipped gym. The room itself boasts the finest style in stone and wood: There is a double floor bed perched on a 6-square-metre loft with dimmer roof lighting, under which there is a Cretan sofa, shelves and a wardrobe closet. The loft bed frees the 15 square meters of the room which includes a kitchenette with two burners, a fridge, an oven and plenty of cupboards with all the cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery you need. On the wall opposite the sofa there is a flat screen smart TV with free Netflix access, a drawer cabinet and a wall-mounted folding table for two - all the amenities to make your stay most comfortable. The room has a spacious, adjoining toilet with bathtub and shower.(We must note that due to the loft bed inside the room, under which lies the sitting area, the space is not ideal for persons over 1'85" in height.) Outside the main entrance of the room, a small hallway leads to the 17-square-meter patio, which can be seen as an extension of living space, with comfortable outdoor furniture, as well as a lofted deck with table and chairs for meals with a view to the sea and the old tanneries. The whole patio area is under a balcony roof acting as pergola, providing protection from rain, heat and sun. Based on the assessments of our guests, the home and the area itself offer one of the most original experiences a couple can enjoy on Crete. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Netflix - Smart TV - Streaming services ### Outdoor areas - Furnished patio - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Computer monitor - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Bicycles - Gym - Kayak ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Bicycles ## Similar properties ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116500000/116492800/116492752/86f6cf11.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lithos Residence Halepa - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 8.0 Very good 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=116492752&PinnedHotelID=116492752&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![House, Sea View | Living area | 65-inch Smart TV with satellite channels, video game console, Netflix](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/126000000/125070000/125069300/125069267/1ad6acd5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Skins Concept Boutique Apartment Halepa - Kitchen - Washing machine - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=125069267&PinnedHotelID=125069267&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Apartment, Smoking | 2 bedrooms, desk](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111200000/111192600/111192518/44a377f3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sea City and Mountain View Apartment Halepa - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Living/dining area [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=111192518&PinnedHotelID=111192518&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/123000000/122940000/122936500/122936434/d705beec.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Kormoranos Waterfront Villa Halepa - Ocean view - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=122936434&PinnedHotelID=122936434&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/30000000/29490000/29484500/29484425/4a2e10eb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Central luxurious Apartment with sea view!
