    great breakfast
    friendly owner
    small bathroom sink
    inconsistent hot water

    the location was right on the beach and we loved hearin the waves while sleepin. breakfast was brill with lotsa options—like scrambled eggs n greek yoghurt. Fresh fruit and delish honey. the owner, christos, was so friendly and gave us fresh apples every day! we also loved how we could walk to the nearby town with shops and cafes super easy. the room was cleaned every other day, which was nice.

    the bathroom sink was kinda small, which made things a bit messy during showers. also, the hot water was iffy at times, had to wait for it to come on.

    fresh octopus
    stunning sea view

    The seafood at Aptera restaurant was unforgettable—fresh octopus and delicious Greek coffee! Our King Suite with Sea View had a spacious roof-top terrace that was perfect for sunset vibes. The staff, especially Christos, made sure we were pampered throughout our stay.

    spacious rooms
    nice balcony
    noisy building

    Rooms are spacious with good beds and a nice balcony to dry swimsuits. The terrace restaurant provides a lovely spot for breakfast with a view of the beach.

    The overall ambiance feels outdated, with a noisy building that disrupts sleep from early morning cleaning. Hot water availability was inconsistent, and the bathroom sink is oddly small, leading to a mess during showers. Limited cleaning schedule every other day might be a downside for some, and there's no coffee machine or kettle in the room.

    direct beach access
    spacious family room
    complimentary sunbeds
    wifi issues
    outdated décor

    Staying here was a great choice for a beach getaway, especially as we wanted to explore nearby attractions like the Ammoudara beach, which was super close by. I loved having direct beach access with complimentary sunbeds and umbrellas. it made relaxing by the sea effortless. The spacious family room we stayed in was another highlight, providing ample space for us to unwind after a day of exploring.

    tricky air conditioning

    Awesome beach vibes!

    Had a lovely time chilling at the beach and the balcony view was insane! The restaurant’s Greek dishes were simply delish, and I loved how they use fresh veggies from their own garden. Just a heads up, the air con was kinda tricky, but they sorted it out quickly. Perfect for a chill vacay!

    beachfront hotel
    private beach
    helpful shuttle service

    aptera beach is a lovely spot with direct beach access, making it perfect for some relaxation. the private beach is great, and the terrace is ideal for enjoying breakfast while admiring the sea view. i appreciated the helpful shuttle service to the airport. being close to public transport makes it easy to explore nearby heraklion.

    Just a suitable option for an overnight stop in Amoudara with great value. The breakfast had some nice Greek specialties. Check the bus schedule to Heraklion before planning your trips.
