Finally, this year my friend and I got to the sunny island of Crete. We came to rest in the month of June for three put on. We lived in an apartment called Chrysa. By the way, the apartments are named after the owner Chris. I would like to note right away that Chris is a friendly and hospitable hostess, and her husband is a separate frame. Too cheerful person and how she gets along with her : D
The apartments have wonderful rooms, everything was always clean and tidy, towels and linen were changed at our request. The hosts were always happy to help us and fulfill any of our requests. The rooms have everything you need not only for spending the night, but also for cooking. Ohhh, and we cooked delicious food here! Also according to the recipes of our lovely hostess. It was a very tasty cake when we arrived. I could not resist and asked for the recipe for this wonderful pie. During our stay, I could not resist and cooked it. Several times the hostess personally invited us to her place for dinner, we gladly accepted her invitations. So we didn't go hungry here. We cooked either ourselves, whether Chrissa herself treated us or went to local taverns located along the main beach.
Speaking of the beach. Municipal beach with azure water and calm warm sea. The local beach is 100 points on a 100-point scale. The infrastructure near the apartments is quite well developed, there are supermarkets, cafes, coffee shops, pharmacies, taverns, ATMs, souvenir shops. Basically everything you need. And if you want to go to the capital of the island, the city of Heraklion and shop there, then you can easily do it by public transport. The bus to Heraklion runs every hour from stops and hotels in the village. Three weeks flew by like three days for us. I want to come back here again, which we plan to do in September-October. Crete and Agia Pelagia are waiting for us, we will see you again soon!! !

We rested in the apartments of Chris for 3 weeks, we liked everything very much. As soon as we arrived, we were given a room on the second floor, asked to change, as it was difficult for a small child to climb on his own, especially to carry a stroller back and forth. The owner of the apartments is a very nice woman, helpful, speaks English.

We rested in the apartments of Chris for 3 weeks, we liked everything very much. As soon as we arrived, we were given a room on the second floor, asked to change, as it was difficult for a small child to climb on his own, especially to carry a stroller back and forth. The owner of the apartments is a very nice woman, helpful, speaks English. We were given a room on the first floor without any problems, where the balcony went directly to the terrace, there was a large dining table where we gathered for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. The room was very clean, the cleaning lady came very often, bed linen and towels were changed constantly. In the room itself, in addition to beds, tables and chairs, there was also a refrigerator, stove, electric kettle, stove, so we could cook every day without any problems. Also in the room was a variety of dishes, pots and pans. The apartments themselves are located in the center of Agia Pelagia, close to a supermarket, a pharmacy, and a variety of taverns serving fresh seafood. Close to the beach, 2 minutes walk. The beach itself is very clean, sand and small pebbles, the water is also very clean, showers on the beach and sunbeds with umbrellas. From the village of Agia Pelagia itself, it is convenient and quick to get to various sightseeing places, an aqua park, and an airport. Nearby in the supermarket you can buy absolutely everything, fresh fruits and vegetables, meat, cheeses, dairy products, household items. There are a lot of different souvenir shops nearby where you can buy everything from magnets and mugs to clothes and shoes, as well as jewelry. In general, we rested just super, the child is very happy, my husband and I too. We bought a lot of souvenirs, the prices here are reasonable, in taverns they cook very tasty, and the prices are not breaking. All people are very friendly and pleasant. I highly recommend staying in the Chris apartments.

Nice view of the village of Agia Pelagia, everything is within walking distance, the shops have everything you need. In the village itself there is a pharmacy and an ATM. We bought local inexpensive sim cards for ease of communication.

We bought local inexpensive sim cards for ease of communication. And so wi-fi is now everywhere here and there was no problem at all to contact relatives. Our room was always clean, bed linen was changed, the hostess was very pleasant and was always happy to help with any questions. We swam on the beach all day, the weather was great. We cooked mostly ourselves, but sometimes in the evening we went to local taverns, we love seafood very much) Here they are all fresh and a large selection of dishes. At sea, the water was clear, the entrance to the sea is very convenient, there was always enough space for everyone everywhere, umbrellas were taken for a small surcharge of only 2 euros. During the holidays we managed to get to know Crete better thanks to the excursions. We visited the Palace of Knossos - we learned a lot of interesting things, we like to listen to various myths and legends, and here on the island there are just a lot of them. We also went to the beautiful bay of Balos and swam in three seas at the same time, we really did not want to leave. The island conquered us and we are already planning our next trip!

Stayed with my husband and girlfriend for a week. I will say right away that I have been traveling for a very long time, but for the first time in the apartments, we just decided to try it, and the tour operator, as always, offered good prices. Well, what can I say, the rest was a success at 100 percent.

Stayed with my husband and girlfriend for a week. I will say right away that I have been traveling for a very long time, but for the first time in the apartments, we just decided to try it, and the tour operator, as always, offered good prices. Well, what can I say, the rest was a success at 100 percent. We didn't even expect. The apartments are very clean and comfortable, the hostess cleaned herself 3 times a week and changed the linen twice. By the way, about the owners. This is Yorgos and his wife Chris - very good-natured and hospitable. Always fulfilled our every request. The room itself is very spacious and bright with a huge balcony-terrace where we always dined. The apartments themselves are located in the center of the picturesque village of Agia Pelagia, exactly 2 minutes walk to the sea. And, of course, the sea. It's just amazing here. We have never seen more beautiful. Transparent, completely different shades, always calm, because it is located in the bay. There are no words. The only caveat is the narrow coastline, but rather long. But we did not pay attention to this, because we were constantly swimming. There is a very beautiful panoramic view of the mountains and rocks around, as well as various boats on the shore. There is no particular infrastructure, and it is not needed there. This is a very quiet place for a relaxing holiday. Of course, on the coast there are bars and restaurants with pretty decent cuisine. In general, Cretan cuisine is a different story. You can talk about it endlessly, because we have not met tastier. The village has one central street, where supermarkets, souvenir shops, jewelry, a pharmacy and ATMs are concentrated. Very handy one shop, which always sells fresh meats, cheeses and dairy products. Since the apartments have a stove and all the necessary utensils, we even cooked our own food a couple of times, which is very convenient and economical. Since we rested for only a week, we decided not to leave our region anywhere, but simply to enjoy the peace, tranquility and, of course, the gentle sea. ! We will definitely come back here again!
I was also surprised when I began to look for sites to leave a review. Couldn't find a hotel anywhere. Strange, the hotel is very good. Do not be surprised that there are no photos, it's just that there was a problem with the camera, and the flash drive does not want to give them away. I hope the review is useful to someone.

At the beginning of this summer, we rested on the island of Crete, and settled in the Chrysa apartments in the village of Agia Pelageya. They were delighted with the rest, the warm sea, clean air, friendly Cretans. The apartments were also wonderful, spacious room (40 sq. m) with a balcony, kitchen with all amenities, wooden furniture, many details in the interior, free Wi-Fi on the territory, huge beds, air conditioning.

There is a sandy beach 70 meters from the hotel. Everything contributed to a comfortable stay. The big advantage was that the apartments were located in the very center of Agia Pelagia and therefore all supermarkets, souvenir shops, pharmacies, a large number of taverns, and most importantly the azure sea were nearby.
Maybe for someone it will also be an important point, one of the reasons why we often choose apartments, they can stay with our beloved toy terrier Lolita, and hotels often do not accept animals. But for us, our dog is not just a pet, but a beloved member of the family))
Also, there was a stop very close, from where we went on excursions throughout Crete, the trip to the island of Spinalonga was especially impressive, and this could not but rejoice. We will gladly go to Crete again, a stunning island with a rich history.

We went to rest on the island of Crete in July with a young man. At the peak of the season. Remained satisfied!! ! Enough impressions until the winter. . . They did not stand on ceremony with the choice of housing, they decided to immediately go to the apartments, if only there was a place to spend the night, and the rest is not important.

We went to rest on the island of Crete in July with a young man. At the peak of the season. Remained satisfied!! ! Enough impressions until the winter. . . They did not stand on ceremony with the choice of housing, they decided to immediately go to the apartments, if only there was a place to spend the night, and the rest is not important. The choice fell on Chrysa Apartments. And we made the right choice. Very friendly, cheerful hosts, always happy to help. They speak English and quite well. Our room was on the second floor. It had everything: beds, wardrobe, kitchen utensils, stove, kettle, hair dryer, air conditioning. Come here and live at least the whole year! And what a gorgeous balcony. . . mmm) it is especially nice to go out on the balcony in the morning and enjoy the early Greek morning with a cup of coffee. Meals - we cooked our own food, but, to be honest, we rarely did it. Enough fruits and vegetables. We went to local taverns. We recommend a tavern near Edem beach. Friendly staff. You definitely won't go away hungry from there! They will feed you for slaughter : D seafood is especially beautiful. Here they are the freshest. Having visited this tavern, you will definitely not remain indifferent. As for our entertainment. . . visited the local city beach in two minutes walk, I note that umbrellas and sunbeds are paid! The beach is good. There is nothing to complain about, even if you really want to))) we decided not to take excursions, but to travel around the whole island by car. Didn't regret it! We saw many sights and gorgeous landscapes on the island of Crete! I would like to say a huge thank you to the owner of the apartment! Chris, we will definitely see you again. Rest was a success, received a bunch of positive emotions. We will definitely come again next year!! !

My family and I rested on the island of Crete in the village of Agia Pelagia, we stayed in the very center of this village in the Chrysa apartments. To say that we were satisfied is to say nothing, beautiful large rooms with regular cleaning, pleasant hosts, good furniture, very large beds, the kitchen has everything you need for self-cooking.

Excellent wi-fi caught, absolutely everywhere, the apartments were a step away from clothing stores, a supermarket, a pharmacy, souvenir shops. The bus stop is literally across the road, from there we went on excursions and just went to the same Heraklion for shopping.
The sea is within easy reach, 150 meters, if not less, the water is warm and clear, the beach is sandy.
I'm sure we'll definitely be back there! In any case, we will definitely recommend.

My husband and I rested at the Chrysa Apartments at the end of May 2015. The hotel is very cozy, the rooms are clean, the Wi-Fi caught well, we thought it would be worse. There were no complaints about plumbing, everything worked properly. Very pleased with the presence of a kitchenette with a stovetop kettle and crockery.

There were no complaints about plumbing, everything worked properly. Very pleased with the presence of a kitchenette with a stovetop kettle and crockery. Since the hotel does not provide any food, but breakfast is a must) they prepared breakfast themselves, but they already had dinner and lunch in nearby restaurants. The town of Agia Pelagia is very beautiful and picturesque, with a large number of bars and taverns. The tourist infrastructure is well developed, but it is not suitable for lovers of noisy nightlife. And suitable for family and relaxing holidays. Very convenient location: the hotel is located in the center of the village and just a few steps from the sandy beach. We rented a car for a few days and drove around the island. We were in Crete for the first time and did not regret at all that we chose this place, this hotel and Mouzenidis Travel company for our vacation. In addition to basic services, they also helped us with car rental. In general, the rest was a success for all 100! - we advise!
