There is a low level of traffic noise from the main road nearby which is only apparent at night. Also, the large resort hotel on the other side of the bay has music at night and the bass travels. It ends by 23:00 and is a small wrinkle on an otherwise idyllic location.

We had a wonderful greeting when we arrived early during cleaning and met Pinilopi. The property was spotless. And we had a gift of enough fabulous grapes to see us through our stay. I bought breakfast ingredients and cooked breakfast when I didn't eat at the nearby taverna. The property has good A/C, it is literally on the beach and has a most convenient public shower nearby to allow entering sand-less. We found it ideal because it has parking on the small approach road outside the door. The 2 x local tavernas are 20 metres away but there is no noticeable noise impact. They have sunbeds for their customers, free at the nearest taverna, Niko's. There is also a small shop nearby. It is a clean, welcoming studio with a beachside balcony which is open to the beach at the quieter end of the beach where the sea is 20 metres away. Also, Fodele itself is a short drive inland and we had a good meal at a non-beachside taverna, priced for locals.

The apartment is fabulous, clean, and right on the best part of the beach, close to a quiet taverna and free sun loungers and umbrellas. From the rooms, you can watch the sun set directly over the sea. It's an ideal place for a relaxing holiday, yet strategically located for exploring Crete. Two other tavernas are within 100 meters, and more can be found in the village of Fodele, just 3 km away. Special thanks to Penelope, who welcomed us with kindness, generosity, and discretion. 10!

Nothing

Loved the location and hospitality- just steps away from the beach in a nice calm location away from the city center. There are taverns/restaurants nearby to eat and you can park right in front of the apartment. The host was very kind and responsive and allowed us to check in earlier since we arrived really early in the morning. The housekeeper Pinelope provided great service! The owner of the adjacent restaurant Dolphin, Nicos was extremely helpful and the food there was excellent. Would definitely consider staying here again if visiting Crete!

The terrace was a tiny bit too small. There’s been some maintenance work going on in the apartments right next to and above us so sometimes we’ve been missing a bit of more privacy, so we spend more time on the beach instead.

The beach just in front of our terrace was amazing. Thank you for bringing us fruits and raki, which both was delicious. The apartment has everything you need and although small it was enough space for us. We loved falling asleep and waking up with the sound of the waves.

I wouldn't change a thing- it is perfect as it is

An absolute gem in a fantastic location. Pinelope was a very warm and welcoming host who checked in daily to make sure we had everything we needed. Her knowledge of the local area and amenities was very helpful for our visit. The apartment is actually on the beach in a quiet corner further round the bay from the main resort so excellent for sunbathing or a swim, with an extra outdoor shower so rinse off when needed. It was a self catering stay and there was adequate facilities for cooking and food storage. There is a full size fridge with freezer, 3 ring electric hob and oven/ grill with all the essential pans, crockery and utensils you might need- no microwave but we rarely use one. There are no food shops in the immediate area so a car is useful or you may find you have to walk a couple of miles for grocery shopping. The restaurant next door served excellent traditional food at reasonable prices so we were happy to eat out most nights, and they let you use the sunbeds during the day for no cost. The apartment was very clean with a comfortable bed, outside patio area on the beach side and a smart tv so we could even log in to our apps and watch a movie when we wanted a quiet night in after a busy day out. We would definitely stay again, thank you so much Pinelope for making our stay so wonderful x

Right on the beach. You were able to hear the waves all the time. Couldn't get a location better than this. There are 3 restaurants nearby, but actually ate only the one next to the property, dolphin, simple and tasty food. The studio is equipped with everything you might need for the kitchen. Perfect location to just relax.

It was amazing, the host even gave us some fresh vegetables and fruit. The only thing i advise is to rent a car if you want to visit other beaches, go to the supermarket or simply go out for dinner because it’s a bit far away

What I missed was only about the lack of buying basic food like bread, milk etc... in the neighbourhood.

It's a tiny, wonderful apartman with gorgeus seasight. The owner lady is very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. We liked it very much.

Proximity to the beach, the apartment is right on the beach. The apartment is well equipped, we didn't miss anything. We recommend renting a car for the entire stay due to the possibility of visiting other parts of the island, monuments and restaurants in other locations, if three restaurants on the beach are not enough for you :-) Very good communication with the landlady.

We rented 2 apartments as we are a family of 4. The property is right on the beach near 2 Taverns and a mini market/gift shop where you can find great food, super service and the bare essentials. The beach itself is nice, and once you get over the rocky part where the waves break it is sandy and doesn’t get too deep too fast. It was great for the kids. There are ample umbrellas and beach chairs at the two taverns but you could also just sit on the porch of the apartment! The apartments were both equipped with much needed air conditioning, they were clean and modern and included all the essential equipment. We enjoyed the location as it is less busy than the other beaches, but we did rent a car to explore a wider area of Crete.

Room was fine. Beach had a strong breeze.

Sound of the waves, cleanliness of room, no crowds, restaurant next door w/beach chairs and fresh water shower, nice hosts and good food! Nice walk to El Greco's birthplace. 3 Euro bus to Heraklion.

Absolutely nothing

Everything, we can not fault this little gem of an apartment. The bed comfy, the amenities perfect, shower powerful. Pinelopi the owner left us a spotlessly clean apartment, full of everything we could need including some welcoming Raki water and a home grown melon. Lovely lady who could not do enough for us perfect. Now the location STUNNING, picture postcard position right on the beach, every time you step outside onto your patio you are one step away from the gorgeous beach. BEAUTIFUL

Our balcony was the smallest, but this cannot be fixed. Also, I was bored due to the perfect sunset every day from our balcony. :)

Right on the beach, quiet, we only heard the sound of the waves. Cool, even without using the AC, the apartment was ventilated perfectly. Attached is a tavern with local flavors and very reasonable prices, offering free sunbeds, where many locals come. For the lazy people, within 50x50 meters, you have everything you need for a perfect holiday. The host and the people around deserve a score of 20. The kitchenette is fully equipped, but theoretically unnecessary because of the tavern...

There was no food store on the beach. The only possibility to buy food or juice for the breakfast is to go to Fodele village which is like 3-4 km away. There is no bus to village or any bike rental possibility on the beach and by walking it take some time.

Location was amazing, right on the beach. Two tavernas were next to apartmant within 100 m, serving delicious local foods. Main road and bus station close so with bus was easy to get to Heraklion and Rethymno cities,

Location is stunning and the property itself is amazing. Tidy and modern interior with incredible air conditioning which made coming inside from the heat extremely refreshing. The dolphin taverna right beside the apartment is top tier.

Didnt like ourselves for not booking this longer than a week,

Couldn't believe our luck, this little place is a real gem, beautiful beach right on the doorstop, outstanding apartment, very friendly host,who left us treats. Thank you again Penelope. Bedding, towels etc was spotless as well as the apartment. Just the right place for us, private, quiet. Air conditioning, provided, cooker, kettle, plates etc for making your food. Local bus was great, travelled to herkion no problems,, hired a car 5 days to travel about different places but car ended up outside 2 days as we just chilled at the apartment/beach. Weather was very warm Great family owned restaurant Dolphin travern just up abit, again friendly staff, owners. Food is top notch, best place at fodele beach. 5 stars The sound of the waves at night was heaven. Very romantic I thought. Hoping to book again soon.

we booked the apartment for 7 night and we left after first one…the bed is extremely small, max 130 width. there is a fridge close to your head and the national road is 10 m from the door. the pictures are miss-driving you. I text message to the contact which was given to us in the morning, i called her 2 times, no answer… so we left. I offered them a 50-50 deal which was rejected, so i paid 7 nights and stayed there only one. the beach in front of the apartment is full with plastic and trash…
