Manos ist ein toller, aufmerksamer Gastgeber und immer zur Stelle, wenn man Fragen hat. Er hat uns sogar vom Flughafen abgeholt und wir hin gebracht. Noch einmal vielen Dank da für!!! Die Wohnung liegt ruhig und hat alles, was man für den Alltag benötigt. In fünf Minuten ist man am Strand, der immer wenig besucht war. Einfach herrlich für einen Urlaub fern der Touristen Strände. Wir kommen gerne wieder.😊 ##### Gabriele G.

Manos, our host, was very attentive, friendly and welcoming. Apartment was perfect with a nice outside seating area. Local road and path to the sea is run down, but not an issue for us. ##### David B.

Auch auf der Terasse befanden sich eine Vielzahl von Sitzgelegenheiten, ein Sonnenschirm und eine Markiese. Manos, der Vermieter, war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Er zeigte uns nach unserer Ankunft noch die nähere Umgebung damit wir uns zurecht finden. ##### Judith & Stephan S. Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### STEPHANIE S. 3 Jul 2018 #### Super! Accueil chaleureux et discution agreable. Le proprietaire prend soin de ses clients et penses meme a vous rendre le plus heureux possible. Je le recommande su vous chercher un logement tranquille, beau et a 5mn a pied de la plage. Il est bien situer et si vous avez louer une voiture. Heraklion est a 15mn en voiture. Spinalonga est a 45mn en voiture avec la nouvelle route en direction de agios nikolaos. Sinon il y a une cour privatif avec de belle fleur, 2 transat pour bronzer, une table exterieure, une douche exterieure egalement pour vous laver quand vous rentrer de la plage. La clim reversible vous aidera a mieu dormir et a mieu supporter la grande chaleur d'ete. ##### STEPHANIE S. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2018 ---
