We stayed in a one-bedroom apartment for three nights and this place is just fabulous. The apartments are very spacious and quiet, on nice grounds with a pool in the middle. They also have a nice bar and light meals available with delicious chocolate shakes too. The family who runs the business are super friendly and very helpful. We highly recommend. If there is any downside to note and only a small one, it would be the small shower.

Great environment, great location

This hotel is like a garden, full of trees, with a very nice swimming pool in the middle. The owners are adorable and prepare a fantastic moka. The location is perfect, close to a good supermarket (with fresh fish in the morning) and 4 small scenic beaches ideal for children and snorkelling. The 2 bedroom apartment was spacious and confortable, with 2 bathrooms, but the kitchen equipment was aging and shower was unpleasantly mouldy (other bathroom was fine).

I liked the comfortable feeling of both the apartment and the pool area. Space and always a sunbed available. 3 beaches to choose from. My favorite was Golden Beach, down the road to the right. you stroll to it Again, easy beach bar there for lunch, drinks etc not to big. I went for a rest and got it. I would book again as there is plenty to go out to explore Car hire, cycle hire, round the corner as is supermarket and ATM. Very good informative hosts.

There were neither shampoo nor soap in their containers in the bathroom. The kettle in the kitchen had a layer of calcium that I needed to clean before using it. Other than these, everything was fine. It was very clean property. Swimming pool was also very clean. There is a limited parking space on the street and no where else to park since I’m the road ends at the property. We had to park by blocking other cars but informed the front desk. Overall we are happy with our stay. It would be very convenient for the families with little kids.
There are banana trees at the front of the balcony entrance.

As good as it looks

Great location for sandy beaches and great restaurants. Two supermarkets within a few minutes walk. Good bus service to Chania town which is a great place to visit. Cost 2e and takes you into the centre of the town. Apartment well equipped and spacious. The bed was comfortable. Could benefit with the addition of a chest of drawers. Great pool and bar/food facilities. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Will be going back next year.

Petite résidence au calme en bord de pisicine avec terrasse. Literie super dans la chambre (si couchage dans canapé... moins bien forcément mais ça va). Clim dans la chambre.

Warm place to stay...

Elea Apartments is a warm place to stay, owned by a family. We got a warm welcome and they are very helpful and serviceminded. The apartmentments are great with good AC, beds, bathroom, kitchen etc. It feels like "home", with books and boardgames to borrow. The pool is quite small and can be a little bit crowded when the place is fullbooked, although nice poolarea with olivetrees around. Everything is just great so far but we have to complain about some things: - WiFi in the apartment is a disaster but good in the poolarea. - Toiletpaper is not included so you have to buy it on your own. - During July its really noisy with insects in the olivetrees. - The manager recommended a car rental service company, called Kreta Rental. Dont rent from this place. We got an old car and its expensive compared to other car rentals. - We stayed 3 nights and no cleaning. It would be nice to have some cleaning service.
