Very good holiday. Decent accommodation, lovely pool, great views although the number of steps to the apartments could be an issue for some people. Good mix of people. Special shout out to the delightful and charming Katerina. Officially the 'cleaner' but she basically ran the place. She was always on the go and nothing was too much trouble for her. A special, special, lady!

Fijn appartement,klein,kneuterig,lekker afgelegen
Leuk klein appartementen complex. Fijn zwembad met beperkte faciliteiten, er is wat te drinken, een ontbijt is mogelijk, maar door het naseizoen niet heel veel meer.
Voor de dagelijkse gang van zaken slechts 2 medewerkers, wel een heel lieve en behulpzame vrouw en man.
Hoog gelegen in Piskopiano, met prachtig uitzicht over Chersonisos. Maar als je dus alles te voet doet dan trek je bergschoenen maar aan en een goede conditie is vereist. Veel steile straatjes.
Als je lekker Grieks wil eten dan zijn er op loopafstand heeeel veel, in Piskopiano zelf, maar ook in Koutouloufarie en oud-Chersonisos. 10 tot 20 minuten loopafstand.
Wij hadden 14 dagen een auto, dus hebben ook veel van de rest van Kreta gezien. Is wel een aanrader als je meer wilt dan alleen op een ligbedje aan het zwembad.

Gestori della struttura molto cordiali e attenti a tutto. Hanno soddisfatto ogni nostra richiesta. Ci hanno aiutato chiamando in aeroporto diverse volte per i bagagli smarriti. Bar fornito piscina pulita struttura ben tenuta. Per fortuna noi avevamo L ultimo
Appartamento in alto e non abbiamo sentito la pesantezza di tutti i gradini. Consigliato

Bon accueil, dans l'ensemble l'établissement est plutôt correcte, bien entretenu et équipé. Seule ombre au tableau une petite infiltration de fourmis dans le placard de la cuisine et la salle de bain. Attention eau chaude dépendant du soleil. Je recommande
Great hotel and location will be back again and again

L'établissement est joli notamment les extérieurs; la piscine est un plus.
L'autoroute est accessible en 3 minutes en voiture
En revanche la salle de bain est très décevante : petite, l'eau chaude est sur minuteur (vous ne pouvez pas prendre votre douche quand vous le souhaitez)
L'équipement de la chambre est décevant également (pas de shampoing, pas un minimum de linge comme des torchons ou éponges etc...)
Sehr schöne Lage und äußerlich gepflegt.
Die Ausstattung ist äußerst alt und extrem einfach. Kaputter duschkopf, Bett, Schränke etc.
Am schlimmsten ist allerdings das man auf Schritt und Tritt von George beobachtet wird. Er Sitz an der ungemütlichen Bar immer alleine und schaut was jeder Gast macht. Hinzu kommt seine unfreundliche Kommunikation.
Wir waren deswegen nie am Pool und der Bar. Das haben wir dann lieber in der Anlage gegenüber gemacht, wo es auch Abendveranstaltungen für die Gäste gibt.

L’emplacement est parfait. Une vue exceptionnelle depuis la chambre. Piscine très propre et personnel sympathique.
Ce qui m’a moins plu est simplement l’hygiène
Lovely apartment with possibly the best views in the area (lots of people took the walk just to get photos!). The staff are lovely and the rooms are cleaned almost daily.
The beaches in the area aren’t the best (very narrow and crowded) so I’d recommend getting a car to give you the chance to see some lovely beaches around the island.
Great place! Great view! Beds were hard, but I hear that's the same for most places there. AC was 7 Euro more a day. Again, I hear that normal for the area.

The accommodation was good with lovely views , on arrival we were put in a studio instead of what we paid for then the next day it was sorted out for us by George whom was very helpful . Also it was very unusually hot and the air condoning was not working the whole week we were there so we were boiling hot all night , if you open the windows you were eaten alive with mosquito bites .
This is the third time I have booked through Expedia .com and every time our room as been double booked or it's not what u have payed for .
Extreem mooi uitzicht en een heerlijk zwembad. Geen drukke jeugd aanwezig. Wel veel trappen, maar dit is de moeite waard. Aardige eigenaren. Bij het zwembad is een barretje en kan je lekker eten en drankjes bestellen. De kamers zijn basic maar prima verder. We hadden een klein balkonnetje maar wel een prachtig uitzicht, miste alleen een fohn in de badkamer. We hadden geboekt een masionette en we kregen een upgrade naat een appartement! Prijs/kwaliteit verhouding is goed!
The hotel was a very relaxing location but it was a challenge to find in Peskopiano. Our hosts were very supportive, friendly and accommodating. Very quiet location in the hills with great views overlooking the hotel strip of Hersonissos. Pool and bar location were ideal. Room was quite comfortable and all our needs were addressed. Eateries and drinking spots are only 5 mins away. Really a great spot and would recommend it to those that enjoy views, wonderful hospitality and a quiter relaxing stay. Perfect for what we were after.
