Aquila Atlantis Hotel
Stayed there in June 2025. Staff were fantastic. Hotel really good. Only thing I would have slightly criticised was the lack of water heating in the swimming pools. Still able to enjoy a swim, though. Otherwise, I couldn’t fault it at all.

City Center Studios by Cretan Houses
You can't beat this property's location. Great night life and resturants right oustide. Our host was great. And there is a washing machine for laundry which is very convenient. My only complaint would be the shower head. It should be replaced because it seemed to shooting water all overvthe bathroom ...

Heraklion Old Port Apartments
Very good location with many nice restaurants nearby. The apartment is well equipped although it is a little but dated looking. There was quite a bit of road noise that made it difficult to sleep but at least it stopped in the middle of the night.
