The apartment was very nice and spacious. It had a lovely view of the city and the sea with lots of outdoor seating areas upstairs and downstairs. The neighborhood is very peaceful. The kitchen was very well equipped. The host was super warm and friendly and were very helpful. We only stayed one night and wished we had spent more time there.

Boasting air-conditioned accommodation with a patio, Elia Paradise Villa with Pool is set in Heraklio Town. This villa has a private pool, a garden, barbecue facilities, free WiFi and free private parking. The property is soundproof and is situated 10 km from Cretaquarium Thalassocosmos.

Where to start, Mr Kostas, the most welcoming, caring and simply AMAZING host we’ve ever experienced, and that’s without even ever having met him!! From leaving us gifts at the door when we’re away to waiting for us to go out for dinner so he can clean the pool and tidy the garden, a level of service dreams couldn’t make up. I have made detailed pictures of the most stunning garden and lower level completely private pool side as it is EXACTLY what I’d want my dream house to look like! As a Muslim family privacy is very important and privacy is exactly what you are getting on the lower level pool side, very cleverly designed! Surrounded by beautiful trees, birds and cats you will find the peace you’re looking for. The house itself, just as stunningly designed as the inside, comfortable bedroom, nice long couch, all the amenities you could want in the kitchen which is well stocked too! The bathroom is very roomy, the shower (for the first time ever encountered) has too much pressure when fully opened!? So you have the luxury to only use part of the water pressure rather than wishing for more. We didn’t end up using the airconditioning as stays nice and cool throughout the day, and the addition of a washing machine is very useful too. THANK YOU for one of our most memorable holidays!!

    Very nice and large villa with private swimming pool. The view on the sea is really amazing. There was everything you need. Also every day there was someone from agency taking care of other villas and asking if we need anything. There are few beatifull beaches close to the villa however you need a car to easily go there as the villa is located on the top of the quite high hill. It is really close to the Heraklion airport so it takes just 20 minutes to get there.
