Semeli Studios

Quiet and convenient. The owners were lovely helpful and very responsive.

No issues whatsoever.

From the very first moment we arrived, we felt cared for. The hosts welcomed us like old relatives. The warm, heartfelt conversation at check-in set the tone for our whole stay. They are truly lovely people, and we liked them very much. The room was clean and comfortable, with everything we needed: air conditioning, sun blinds, fresh bed linen, and even a small, sweet welcome gift. The most incredible thing, of course, was the view from the balcony. It is something you would forgive any shortcomings for, if there were any. You don't need to go anywhere to watch the sunset: the sun leaves a beautiful glow on the sea, and in the distance you can see parts of Crete, small islands and boats. Below there is a little marina, palm trees and greenery, and together it all makes one picture of incredible beauty. We also appreciated that the owner told us where to eat, where to buy groceries, and how to get to the Old Town, which is just a 10-minute walk away. There's also a good restaurant nearby, 50/50, which we enjoyed too. The bed was very comfortable, with a great mattress, and that was really important to us. Highly recommended!

Honestly, we can't say there was anything we didn't like - we loved everything. If we really had to point something out, the bathroom is a little compact, and the shower door leaks slightly. But believe us, these are such minor details that they didn't affect our overall impression at all. They really don't matter

Georges, Stella and family were incredible hosts. They made you feel like part of the family while staying. They provided everything we could have needed, including beach towels and umbrellas for no extra cost. The location is unbelievable, the beach is literally outside your door, with plenty of lovely restaurants and bars to choose from. The old town is an easy 10 min walk away. We are very sad to leave, don't even think about booking anywhere else.

Best point was probably location.

The room layout was weird as the bed was sideways to wall and so the wall lights were located at your head and your feet. If the bed had been positioned as it should have been, it would have been too long for the room width. Bathroom shower was passable with only hand held shower so obviously you couldn't stand under it for a proper shower as there was no fixture on the shower cabinet wall. Very disappointed.
