Monthly Rentals in Pelekita

Katerina is a wonderful host. We had a great stay at her place which was homely. The host is very patient and helpful with all your queries and gives amazing local tips. The house is at a very peaceful location and just 100 mtrs from the beach. It's also about 10 min walk from the bus stop with bus service evry half an hour. It has all the amenities as listed. Certainly recommended if you are looking to relax and recoup.

It was a delight to meet Maria. She has taken a lot of pride in presenting an AirBNB that is spotlessly clean and nicely furnished with a modern bathroom and kitchen, comfortable bed and a balcony that gets the morning sun. Her place is set in a delightful garden which is cared for with pride with a large pool. It’s only a short walk to a sandy beach where you can hire sun lounges and brollies. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance serving traditional Greek food and a classy Italian restaurant across the street. Off street parking is a bonus. I highly recommend Maria’s place.

We had a very nice week in the apartment with our children of 4 and 6 years old. The apartment was as shown in the photos of the advertisement! Clean, tidy, spacious enough for 2 adults and 2 children. Balcony on the small side with four people, but that did not bother us. We had regular contact with Magdalena, she always responded very helpfully and extremely quickly (within 5 minutes). That was very pleasant! She also arranged a taxi from the airport to the apartment and back for us at the end of the week. There is plenty to do for the children in the area, all within walking distance: the small swimming pool, beach/boulevard, CretAquarium, Dinosaur park. I would definitely recommend the apartment! Furthermore, we found the area to be a bit outdated (although there is a lot of new construction coming!) and not very lively. We were out of the holiday season.

Manos's apartment is great and his mother, Maria is a treasure. She welcomed us on our first morning, gave us advice on where local shops - including the excellent bakery - are and just made us feel special. The gardens are beautiful and you can see how she loves the plants. And the pool area is delightful after a hot day touring the ruins at Knossos: we just relaxed there listening to the sparrows in the nearby hedge, watching flights going overhead and amazed at the swifts "pool-dipping" when we got out. A lovely cosy apartment (and the shadiest in the block) very handy for the Heraklion area.
