Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I made a reservation via Expedia on January 19. We've paid for the room. Today we came to the hotel, on March 27, after 24 hours of traveling there from home in USA. Manager of the property told us she doesn't have a reservation from Expedia. Moreover we've got a confirmation from VRBO and owner of this particular studio i had reserved via Expedia and paid said that he does not know anything about us. We are using Expedia service for years and now we are in different country without place to stay.

Lovely apartment in quiet location, near everything you need in unspoilt area of Crete

We are a family of 4, with 2 boys aged 10 and 13. The apartment was of a good size for us, with everything we needed for a 10 day stay. We all loved the 2 pools and the view of the sea. Lagada beach nearby was a bit rough for us to swim in, but it is a 2 minute drive into beautiful Makrigialios. Hiring a car is a must if you stay here. The sandiest beach is near the harbour. Apart from spending time in the village (which has Minoan & Roman villas), we spent time with Anthony (who works in the resort) who took us sea kayaking & up to Pefki village to walk back down the gorge. Both of these were excellent days out and we learnt a lot about Crete from Anthony. We also had an interesting drive (ie hair pin bends on single track roads) to the coast at Kato Zakros. The resort is 2 hours from Herakleon, so we didn't venture to Knossos, although we did drive back to the Watercity waterpark which we all loved. We took a boat from Ierapetra to the island of Chrissi. This was an expensive day (loungers at the beach were 20E!) and it was crowded, but it was worth it to swim at the amazing Golden Beach. In the past I have backpacked around Oz and the Pacific and this beach had some of the clearest water I had ever seen. Bring your snorkels! We would all thoroughly recommend both the apartment and this part of Crete.

Emplacement exceptionnel avec Service haut de gamme. Prix de la location nettement au prix pratiqués en direct par le gestionnaire local ( double du prix). Appartement mal agencé et de superficie ridicule . Montant de location équivalent à deux chambres d hôtel avec petit déjeuner et autres facilités.

Schöne Unterkunft am guten Standort Makrigialos

Das Apartment entsprach im Inneren der Beschreibung und den Bildern. Es war mit Liebe eingerichtet und es war alles vorhanden was man benötigt. Auch die Betreuung vor Ort war gut. Der Ort Makrigialos ist ein kleiner beschaulicher Ferienort, der alles bietet ( Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Strand ...) um sich sehr wohl zu fühlen. Hervorzuheben ist der ausgezeichnete Schlachter vor Ort und die Tatsache, dass die Liegen/Sonnenschirme kostenlos sind, sofern man etwas verzehrt. Allerdings ist ein Auto unverzichtbar, da die Entfernung zum Ort doch gut zwei Kilometer beträgt und die Straßen nicht zum Spaziergang geeignet sind. Ein negativer Punkt zu dem Apartment muss allerdings erwähnt werden, es gibt nur eine gemeinsame Terrasse mit dem Nachbarapartment. Zum Glück war dieses während unseres Aufenthalts nicht belegt, sodass wir die Terrasse alleine nutzen konnten und sogar den Esstisch der Nachbarn zur Verfügung hatten. Ansonsten hätten wir uns sicherlich nicht so wohl gefühlt, da die Privatsphäre dann doch erheblich eingeschränkt gewesen wäre. Auch die Matratze ist bei dem ohnehin schon relativ kleinem Bett erneuerungsbedürftig, da sie durchgelegen ist und man sich damit ständig näher kommt. Dies trägt nicht zu einem entspannten Schlaf bei. Alles in allem war es ein schöner Aufenthalt.

Séjour très agréable dans une région encore préservée.

Appartement très confortable, décoré avec beaucoup de soin dans une résidence de standing avec piscines et à proximité d'une plage magnifique, quasi déserte. Tout était réuni pour passer d'excellentes vacances !

Bel appartement

Très bel appartement dans une résidence avec piscine.Le logement est petit mais très fonctionnel.Il est bien équipé et décoré avec beaucoup de goût.Bémol: il n'y a pas de table pour manger sur la terrasse ( un salon à la place)...ce qui est dommage en vacances.Nous avions la chance de ne pas avoir de voisins ce qui a évité la promiscuité sur le balcon. A l'accueil, Areti est très aimable , souriante et n 'a pas hésité à appeler elle même le centre de plongée pour mon mari afin qu'un interlocuteur français le rappelle.Elle nous a donné de bons tuyaux de visites.A noté, nous étions sur place pour la finale de l' Euro.Un écran a été installé près de la piscine et bières et raki nous ont été offert. La résidence est calme .
