This is a new facility which has been very tastefully decorated snd set up. We found everything to be top notch. They are in the process of getting everything finished, but nothing that disturbed us seriously. Convenient to Heraklion and the airport and on a lovely wild stretch of sea. A sandy beach is 5 minute walk away.

We had the pleasure of staying at this rental, and I must say, it exceeded all our expectations ! The Host: The hospitality of the host (George) was exceptional. He clearly puts a lot of effort into ensuring guests have a comfortable stay. George was always available on the phone to answer any questions and provide helpful local tips. His warm and welcoming nature added a personal touch that made our stay even more special. The Property: The rental was clean upon arrival, and all amenities were in excellent condition. The cozy and modern interior was beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The outdoor space was a real highlight: this property has 2 patios ! Location: This rental is in a quiet and peaceful village near the coast. It was / is just a short 2-3 minutes walk to both the beach and the local restaurants. We loved being able to pop down to the beach whenever we wanted. One of the most memorable moments we had were our evening walks along the shoreline, with stunning ocean views and beautiful sunsets. Other useful info: Renting a car is recommended if you eager to explore other beautiful places and beaches on Crete island. There are also 2 large grocery stores (supermarkets) quite near. You can reach them by car, which takes approximately 2-3 minutes, or by walking, which will take around 20 to 25 minutes. This is a minor thing: there is no microwave in the kitchen. For some families it is very convenient to have / to use a microwave. If this is important to you then you can just talk to George. And he most likely will bring it / add it (at no extra cost). A surprise for the guests: Getting a gift at our arrival, that was produced by the host was a pleasant and heartwarming experience. Can't tell you more :-) you should / will experience this yourself. In conclusion, this rental is a hidden gem that I would gladly return to in a heartbeat. Overall Experience: Amazing and 10/10 !

The rooms

Close drive to the airport Good value room Polite and respectful staff Recommend

They had a nice swimming pool. The exterior of the hotel and the interior of the court looked nice.

During my stay at the Porto Plaza Hotel, I was impressed by the room decor, featuring light-colored walls, elegant dark furniture and tiled floors. Every room had its own private balcony and bathroom, providing a comfortable retreat. The on-site restaurant offered a delightful buffet-style breakfast, while the poolside and main bar served refreshing drinks. It was a relaxing and well-catered experience that enhanced my stay.

The owner was very helpful, friendly and stayed up very late when we arrived initially due to delays. The apartment was fell equipped and spacious. The apartments are well located wrt close to the beach and town with a great view!
