Die Unterkunft war schön und sauber ,aber die Küchenausstattung sehr mäßig. Ebenso für uns ,als Nichtautofahrer ein großes Manko, dass jeder sein Auto vor seinem Appartment parken konnte. Der Blick von unserer Terrasse, war der auf einen Parkplatz . Dabei hätte es im vorderen Teil der Anlage genug Platz für parkende Autos gegeben. Sehr schade !

Haben nicht das gebuchte Apartment erhalten welches wir eigentlich gebucht hatten - angeblich gab es technische Probleme und es wurde doppelt vergeben. Sehr schade. Unterkunft ansonsten an sich in Ordnung.

Fantastic apartment, beach and taverna
Me and my boyfriend have stayed at this property for 4 nights, at the superior apartment on the ground floor. The standart of the place was very good and comfortable. The balcony, even though on the ground floor had a nice sea and olive garden view. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. The stuff was very friendly and helpful. I was to mention The Fata Morgana taverna with a fantastic view and FANTASTIC foood and a very friendly service. The beach is only 2 min away, and it's a pure wild beauty. We would definately come back to this area and to this property.

This is one of the most beautiful areas of Crete, remote, undiscovered, and Fata Morgana does it justice with its architecture and friendliness!
