Julies Apartments and Studios — Hotel in Municipality of Chersonissos

We had an absolutely fantastic time staying for 14 nights at Julie's apartments. Julie met us on arrival even though our flight was delayed and gave us home baked biscuits and Raki. She gave us info on the area, restaurants, bus services and where to find the best beaches.

The apartments are centrally located next to all the amenities and about 5 minutes walk from a sandy beach. As it is central a bit of noise can be expected from the hustle and bustle of the town. There is a bus stop just a couple of minutes walk away with regular buses all day.

The apartment was beautifully cleaned and new sheets / towels provided every 3 days. It's well equipped with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. We were in a family apartment with a large balcony.

Hopefully we will return in the not too...

The village Kokhini hani is not super touristic and you can see normal people and old olive farmers driving their cars through the main street.

Anyway for every minus, Julie make up with the warmness and...

This is a gem of a place, where my partner and I have just spent the most enjoyable week. The apartments are clean, spacious and in a beautiful setting, and very well cared for. The village is quiet but an easy hop on the bus if you want to get into Heraklion or many other areas of interest nearby, with lots of great tavernas serving delicious food at sensible prices. The beach is glorious and quiet, just a 5 minute stroll from the apartment, so perfect for keen swimmers and paddlers alike. Julie is very knowledgeable of the area - whatever you are looking for in your holiday - so that was a great help and we received a wonderful welcome from both her and her husband Manthos. I’d...
