Pros:

Bij aankomst was het donker... en de volgende ochtend toen we de gordijnen open deden. Wauw! Wat een uitzicht... was echt geweldig mooi. Alles was gewoon perfect Dimitris en zijn familie waren super lief en lieten je echt welkom voelen. Kamers waren elke keer weer top. Heb 0,0 klachten. Misschien dat we zelfs nog een keer gaan

Beautiful family-run hotel with amazing pool
Pros:

Beautiful, family-run business with attention to detail, right above Georgioupoli in the hills but still close enough to the beach and the little town (5min drive). The view is amazing from the balcony over the mountains and a bit of the sea. The pool is the best place to relax, kept clean and tidy. The owners are really kind and humble Cretan people who give you the best tips for sightseeings around. The apartment is spacious and has all you need.I loved the frappe Dimitri was making for me every day. Everything is well taken care of. Would definitely return.

Cons:

Just a few things to mention but overall, they do not take away from your positive experience here:
The windows do not filter the noise from your neighbors, you hear them all the time since the balconies are seperated only with a metal frame (take earplugs if you are sensitive like me or talk to your neighbors:))
The a/c is not strong enough to cool down the whole apartment.
The bathroom is quite small and the shower doesnt have a curtain and the water flows everywhere but this is quite common in Greece.
