The apartment is small, but very beautiful, charming, and incredibly cozy. It’s even more beautiful in person than we imagined from the photos! Perfect for a couple, comfortable and very well maintained. We also loved the thoughtful Greek welcome gift of olive oil — such a lovely and special touch. We were very happy with our stay and would definitely come back!
I liked everything, and there was nothing negative.
La situation géographique est idéale. Dans une rue calme, mais en plein centre d'Heraklion. Appartement très bien équipé. Une gentille attention à l'arrivée. Nickel.
RAS.
L'appartamento nel suo complesso è davvero molto bello e funzionale. Gli arredi di design studiati nei minimo dettaglio ti fanno piacere e sono ottimali per le funzionoi che hanno. Abbiamo adorato la lista di consigli che ci hanno fornito, in special modo i Ristoranti, tutti veramente buoni ed eccelenti.
Niente
we didn’t get into the hotel and slept on the streets
sleeping in the streets and the host not answering our calls even though she said 24/7 service
Emplacement, comfort
Quelques étages à monter mais ça fait garder la forme
La posizione e l’appartamento
La corrente è giusto che viene tolta…ma al frigo no. Vi prego 🙏🏻
La posizione, la cura per i dettagli
Niente. Purtroppo non c’è alcun contatto con lo staff, tranne che a distanza
מקום נעים מרווח ונוח, מרפסת גדולה, מיקום מושלם
התקלחנו במים קרים בעקבות אי תשומת לב להוראות הפעלה (צריך להדליק דוד). קומה שלישית ללא מעלית - מפחיתה מאוד מחווית השהות, לעלות עם מזוודות היה מתיש
Très bien placé, au cœur du centre-ville, la possibilité de sortir, de faire des courses, etc et tout ça à pieds. Appartement très propre, immeuble calme, bien équipé et confortable.
Au départ, le digicode ne fonctionnait pas correctement malgré mes tentatives mais une fois amadoué, pas de problème particulier !
Tolles, mit Liebe eingerichtetes Appartement mitten in der Fussgängerzone. Trotz Nähe zu Geschäften und Restaurants in ruhiger Lage. Super freundliche Host, wir bekamen neben einem Gastgeschenk hervorragende Tipps für Unternehmungen.
Wir hatten das Appartment im ersten Stock, trotzdem war es mit Kinderwagen herausfordernd, da kein Aufzug vorhanden ist.
Great location, close to shopping, restaurants and sights

Central Location
L'appartement en général, l'emplacement en plein centre, les recommandations du propriétaire.
Rien, tout était parfait.
Η διακόσμηση του δωματίου είναι φανταστική. Η τοποθεσία καλύτερη δεν γίνεται . Όλα ήταν τέλεια 😊
Bien placé et très beau.
Rien à signaler.
It is now 4am in the morning and i have not been able to sleep because the noise.music from the bars is extremely loud. It feels as though the party is inside the apartment, and the vibrations of the music can be felt throughout the bedroom. I have a full day of travelling tomorrow, and this situation is unacceptable.
Appartement très bien localisé, en plein centre et relativement bien isolé. Propreté au top, bien équipé, avec lave vaisselle et machine à laver. Les hôtes ont été très aimables et nous ont même offert une bouteille. De nombreux bouquins sont disponibles dans l’appartement si vous cherchez des activités à faire dans Heraklion ou en dehors. Belle luminosité et coucher de soleil sur les montagnes très appréciable.
Seul bémol sur les photos le balcon semble donner sur un bâtiment pas trop moche, mais si comme nous vous êtes à l’avant dernier étage vous aurez vue sur des immeubles délabrés au loin. La photo mise en avant a été prise du balcon d’en dessous je pense, mais du moment où vous montez vous n’aurez pas la vue indiquée sur les photos. 2nd bémol était l’évier de la salle de bain, la tuyauterie fuyait, ce qui fait que l’évier était difficilement utilisable.
Die Lage war perfekt. Super zentral gelegen, nur wenige Meter zum Morosini-Brunnen, Cafés und Tavernen. Auch als Frau konnte man nachts noch sicher durch die Straßen schlendern. Hübsche und geräumige Dachterrasse zum Frühstücken oder Weintrinken am Abend - mit Blick aufs Meer! Stilvolle Einrichtung, super bequemes Bett.
Die Lage mitten in der Fußgängerzone von Heraklion ist optimal. Fußläufig sind alle Sehenswürdigkeiten der Stadt zu erreichen. Die Ausstattung der Ferienwohnung ist hochwertig und umfangreich (inkl. Geschirrspüler). Schlüsselübergabe war kontaktlos. Vorab haben wir bereits viele Infos und Tipps erhalten.

Wspaniała lokalizacja w samym sercu miasta.
Wszystko było super!
Die wirklich sehr modern und geschmackvoll eingerichtete Wohnung ist das perfekte Quartier, wenn man am trubeligen Nachtleben von Heraklion - vor allem am Freitag und Samstag - teilnehmen will. Von hier aus kann man sehr gut die gesamte Innenstadt erkunden.
Centrale ligging in Heraklion, fijne buurt
Heel netjes en leuk balkonnetje
La ubicación y el apartamento en general, la decoración es muy bonita. El detalle de bienvenida
Nada, todo estaba perfecto
Toll ausgestattete Wohnung. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Tolle Lage
I liked the bathroom and the lobby. The rooftop was the best feature by far!
Posizione, design, arredamento, servizi
Clean, central.
The sofa beds were not comfortable. I understand the need to limit energy waste but I find the whole card key system too restrictive. Having only one key it limits the movement to all group goes out or none…
The best stay in Heraklion!! The closest you can find to the center, totally recommend to everyone!!
Everything good Good recomondations from host
The apartment is close to the city center, local stores, great restaurants and bakeries.
The apartment has many stairs and no elevator to access the rooms. It makes it difficult to carried the baggage specially when you are in a short trip and have to leave early in the morning.
就在舊城區的商圈中,地理位置算放便,留下不能停車,房間設計現代風格的,感覺非常舒適,空間也很足夠,還有一個小陽台。餐具相當的完備,還送二小瓶當地的烈酒。入住前就會通知如何取得房間鑰匙,及相關的注意事項還有旅遊餐飲的建議。真的很喜歡這家公寓。
Well I loved the design and it was clean, new and comfortable and great bed and shower Also plenty help from the owner Close to whatever u needed I was there in March and have no complaints
The apartements are super stylish and clean, very good equipment
I absolutely loved the apartment! It was equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect – central yet fairly quiet. Everything was very clean, and the host gave me great tips that made my stay even more enjoyable. I would gladly come back anytime and highly recommend it!”
Great location, well appointed, clean apartment.
Nothing.
The host had been very responsive and flexible. I’m a foodie, and all the restaurants and cafes she recommended were great. Thanks to her, I could have the best food experience during this trip. I also liked the interior of the flat and balcony. It was very lovely place to stay.
The flat is located in the center of the downtown so walkable to everywhere, but it’s noisy during time and taxi cannot access the location. Also, the room was on the 3rd floor so it was not easy for a girl to bring a big suitcase up the stairs.
Modern and slick apartment. Very very nice
Stairs are very stiff and no elevator
Great location!
The apartment is located in the city center and has good AC and a balcony with the view. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed.
It may be difficult to get there for people with mobility problems - the apartment is located on the 3rd floor (no elevator)
Location was great, bed was very comfortable and the place had a great feel to it.
It’s an amazing place to stay if you plan to visit Heraklion. Firstly, the host was vey responsive and very helpful. I have stayed in many different places in the world. This one is definitely the best in my life. The designed appartement is super clean and provides everything travelers may need. The host offers excellent advice about where to do and where to eat. We have tried the restaurant at Apiri and the grilled chicken was amazing. My daughter loved this apartment a lot and said that it’s sad to leave. It’s an amazing place to stay where is as cozy as at home. Also, the location is perfect! One minute’s walk away from the lion’s square. Thanks a lot for offering this wonderful place. We really appreciate everything and all the nice consideration for our need.
It’s sad to leave such a wonderful place.
The location was great! Really central and easy to walk to everything in Heraklion. Stavriana was a great host and gave some very helpful recommendations about staying in Crete and answered any questions we had. We were also left some raki and a traditional cretian drink which was very kind. The apartment was beautifully laid out too and well decorated.
It was not very soundproof - we could hear loud music coming from nearby bars at night. Also the power going off when you leave the property was difficult, as this included power sockets, the dishwasher and the washing machine making it very difficult to wash clothes etc. when you are out exploring for most of the day.
Owner very available, kind, and helpful! Property very clean, perfectly located!
We loved our stay at Chandakos 8 Design apartments! The view was stunning, the apartment was clean and functional, and very well-located. Stavrianna also gave lots of great recommendations for things to do and see, and where to eat!
We had a small issue with hot water, but Stavrianna was very prompt to help fix the problem.
This unit is in a prime location, right in the center of the old town. It has a nice terrace with a view of the sea. Directions were provided by our host, to a parking garage very close by, which was very helpful! The pictures on the listing matched the reality.
The unit doesn't have a "living room". Other than that, the unit was well appointed and we spent most of our time when in the unit, on the deck. Important to note the stairs to the unit (It's a top floor) are very steep. Not a problem, but important to be aware of.
Everything was amazing!
. Every time I come to Heraklion, I only stay in this apartment. Ideal location in the center. very beautiful and modern design, has everything you need, coffee machine, washing machine. I feel at home, very comfortable bed, TV with many channels, very cozy atmosphere. In winter the apartment is warm thanks to a comfortable heating system. The owner is a very sweet and good girl, always in touch and takes care of you. I am delighted with this apartment and will book it again soon for my next trip. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an apartment with the comfort of home.
I liked everything!!!
Lovely, responsive host. Beautiful, comfortable place, with attention to details, making you feel safe and rested. Location in the heart of the city, making you enjoy the lively atmosphere. Hanging out on a balcony was a blast, since you could immerse into the atmosphere of the city but at the same time trees give you a feeling of privacy and cosiness. Highly recommending!
During weekends a bit loud, due to the night life of the bars and restaurants around, which is understandable taking into the account, that the apartment is that centrally located.
Contact with the owner was a blast, we got every potential question answered before arrival without even asking. Location is amazing. In the apartament we got more than needed - the owner even thought about umbrella! :-) We will be back for sure.
Everything was great!
The apartment is located very well inside the old city For staying at Heraklion- very convenient The apartment was very well cleaned Netflix included (do not required to log in with your account) Great communication with the owner
3rd floor without elevator Water pressure at the shower is very weak (for this only 9/10)
Perfect location, lovely apartment decorated with good taste and very pleasant
Cozy place in the heart of Heraklion Thank you for staying
The owner is always ready to help and provides all information for a comfy and enjoyable stay before arrival so you can immediately feel at home as a local.

Design & location
Floor needs repair
Everything was amazing at this property and we loved every minute of our stay. The attention to detail was phenomenal and the location was unbeatable. Our only regret was we couldn’t stay longer.
The place was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Very well located. The host was helpful and provided good recommendations.
The location is perfect, only a short walk to everything. The host was amazing and very responsive. They even let us use the washing machine in the apartment below as it was free at the time.
The room is at the top of 3 very steep sets of stairs. Whilst this didn't bother us it may be difficult for some. You have to pre heat hot water if you want it. The instructions were provided but we could not get this to work resulting in no hot showers.
Nice, clean apartment in the centre of Heraklion. The location is great, you can walk in any direction and find restaurants and bars. The apartment has all the facilities you may need, like a fridge, washing machine, kettle etc. Even though it's in the centre, the apartment has good sound proofing, so it is still pretty quiet. It also has a nice small balcony to enjoy the warm mornings and evenings.
The one thing that was kind of annoying was the lock on the apartment door. It needs some jostling for it to open. Other than this minor inconvenience, there were no downsides to this place.
Great apartment right at the center of Heraklion, lots of nice cafes and restaurants in waking distance. The place is tastefully done, brand new and very clean. We had a great time and can absolutely recommend it.
Superb location. Loved you could close off the bedroom to the main living area. Enjoyed sitting on the balcony. We were very comfortable during our 4 night stay.
Could do with a cutting knife and more dishwasher & laundry tablets for longer stays.
I had flat C on 3rd floor. It's a modern decorated flat. The building is a renovated old town house which is taken care of really well and I certainly felt that. At first the missing elevator seemed to make me worry but that did not prove to be a problem for me. As I was working remotely, the WiFi was stable with good BW all day. The TV had netflix and was also possible to make wireless screen share from my laptop which proved very useful. The kitchen had almost all utensils I would need; certainly I could make my breakfast and cook my rice or pasta - no problems. The bed is super comfortable, my sleep was deep and restful. I really appreciated the walk-in shower as well! The house is just by the 3 lions square at the centre of Heraklio city. Within 5 minutes I had all cafes, bars, supermarkets, shops and travel agents at my feet. Finally the flat's balcony has views over the town and down to the sea & surrounding mountains. Many thanks to Stavrianna for her help, advice and for always swiftly responding to any of my needs giving the best solutions. I enjoyed the Cretan treats that were waiting for me in the flat. Certainly I will be looking to come back to this wonderful house.
The place is located in the heart of the historic town, perfectly close to a lot of restaurants and bars. The design of the apartment is modern with attention to the details.
The bed and pillows could be more comfortable.
very beautiful apartment and perfect design and very close to the center
there’s no elevator
