Surroundings: Between Agia Pelagia and Ligaria. Two calm, sparkling clean beaches cooled down by the clear blue that stretches before them. Just a few minutes’ drive from the centre of Heraklion, the Keramos complex with the six separate areas of accommodation, gazes from high up into the splendour of the sea and the tranquillity of the surrounding Cretan landscape, wild and hospitable all at once. From the organised exterior but also from all interior spaces, the view sprawls uninterrupted, beckoning for exploration and relaxation.
**** Some info of the near bays ***
The beautiful and calm gulf of LYGARIA in only 400m away. It is a lovely narrow stretch of sand with calm and warm crystal clear waters. Watersports, scuba diving, sea beds, super markets and fish tavernas make this spot one of the most famous in the area.
The AGIA PELAGIA sandy bay is about 2 Km away. It is protected from the north winds, and the sea is almost always calm. AGIA PELAGIA village has developed around its shores, so that's where you'll find many of the tavernas and cafeterias. In the center of Agia Pelagia you will find a super market, tourism offices, pharmacy, an ATM, tourist and souvenir shops and the taxi stand. There are many restaurants and tavernas featuring Cretan, Greek or international cuisine, and all have a beautiful view of the sea. As you dine in Agia Pelagia, you can also partake of the wonderful scenes around you, and snap these memories into a treasured photo album: the various shades of the rippling sea, the cute little kid building a sand castle, the old fishing boats anchored in the bay, the fishermen preparing their nets for the night's labour!
Beautiful and peaceful, non crowded neighborhood
Just 15 to 20 min drive from the airport. The place has a secure private parking for your car.

Ausgezeichnete Anlage
Wir waren da im September 2017. Es hat uns ganz ausgezeichnet gefallen: die ruhige Lage der Anlage mit unverbauter Sicht auf's Meer, der geschmackvoll angelegte Garten, der schöne Pool, die Wohnung, die Sauberkeit. Aber vor allem die Betreuung durch George und Claire, die für eine ungezwungene Ferienzeit gesorgt haben. Vielen Dank für eure Freundlichkeit, die guten Ratschläge, die Organisation der Wanderung.
Thank you very much, dear George.

Wonderful apartment! Everything was perfect.
We spent a wonderful week at the apartment and it was simply perfect. Breathtaking few, very clean and very well equipped with everything you need. George is the best and was always helpful and supportive. The booking and the communication before the actual stay was very easy and fast - I can recommend this property to everyone!
Thanks for the wonderful time George and for sure we will see each other again!

Super séjour en Crète
Un super séjour en Crète, la propriété est vraiment superbe avec une magnifique vue sur la mer et l'appartement est vraiment très bien et très propre exactement comme sur les photos.
Les propriétaires sont vraiment très accueillant et très très gentil. George nous a donné des conseils pour des visites de L'île et nous a aidé pour la location de la voiture :)
C'est sur dès que l'on aura l'occasion nous reviendrons.
Je vous le conseil a 100%

Beautiful villa, lovely area, great hosting
We spent 2 weeks at George's villa in one of his one bedroom apartment and had a fantastic time. Our only regret was to leave!
What you see on the pictures is exactly what you get. The villa has amazing breath taking views over the bay and the swimming pool. It is close to some very nice beaches and tavernas. The flat has all mod cons and even more (basic food necessities provided, towels, sheets, air con..etc, etc!). We have a 15 months old baby boy and George made sure to provide us with all the baby equipments needed and was always here to help. We can only recommend this place a 100% for a fab and relaxing holiday.

Superbe séjour en Crète
Nous venons de passer un superbe séjour en Crète notamment grâce à Georges et à sa femme Claire.
Dès les premiers échanges de mail, George s'est montré très sympatique et très réactif pour nous donner de nombreux conseils. Nous avons ainsi loué notre voiture pour le séjour par son intermédiaire et tout s'est très bien passé (même si la Hyundai Astro était un peu poussive dans les côtes). Un ami a même pu nous rejoindre dans l'appartement sans coût supplémentaire.
La villa est superbe avec une belle piscine (notre appartement donnait sur celle-ci), un barbecue, une salle de sport, une machine à laver... L'appartement est quasi neuf et en très bon état avec tout le matériel nécessaire (vaisselle, serviettes, thé, huile, sel, poivre...). La villa est situé à à peine 10 minutes à pieds de la plage de Lygaria et est idéalement située pour rayonner dans tout le centre de la Crète (Heraklion, Agios Nikolaos, Matala, Rethymnon...). L'ambiance est très familiale.
Nous recommandons vivement George et sa jolie villa si vous voulez passer de belles vacances en Crète!

Zu Gast bei Freunden
Wer einen entspannten Urlaub ohne Lärm und Trara sucht, ist bei George und seiner Familie goldrichtig aufgehoben. Die Nationalitäten waren angenehm gemischt. Der Weg vom Strand zurück ist war nicht weit, leider allerdings etwas steil. Mietwagen ist empfehlenswert, damit man auch mal die schönen anderen Strände oder auch Städte erkunden kann (George gibt reichlich Tipps). Alles in allem ein sehr gelungener Urlaub, die Gastfreundschaft der Familie ist unübertroffen!
