Great hotel run by a very friendly family
The hosts were so friendly, and they provided us with a great place to stay. They greeted us with fresh fruits from the garden and homemade raki, they gave us an umbrella when it rained, and they offered to drive us to the market when we had car trouble. The interior is new and to a high standard. Overall a great place to stay!

Great host and apartment. Has everything you need. It is far away from the crowds of tourist to allow you to relax but close enough to allow for easy access when adventure is sought.

The perfect hotel
If you are looking for the perfect accommodation from which to explore the western part of Crete, then look no further! George and his parents make the stay both comfortable and totally relaxing. The rooms were spotless all the time and completely equipped. In addition your hosts are always available for advice and in the evening are so hospitable and always cheerful and friendly. I recommend the Skamagkas apartments without hesitation and wholeheartedly!

Skamagkas 2 uker i august 2019
Vi har hatt 2 uker på Skamagkas nå i august. George og foreldrene gjorde sitt aller beste for oss. Fantastiske folk, gjestfrie samtidig som privatlivet ble respektert. George snakket godt engelsk. Nydelig frukt og grønt fra hagen, raki og kaker til velkomst. Meget godt utstyrt leilighet, rent og rolig. Vi ble invitert på middag med familien og de andre gjestene. Nydelig mat etterfulgt av gresk dans. Et minne for livet. Vi hadde ikke bil, men vi liker å gå. Flere flotte strender og tavernaer i gå avstand. Ferskt brød på minimarkedet, 1 km unna. Vi anbefaler Skamagkas og kommer gjerne tilbake. Anne Karin og Stig fra Norge.

Our stay at Skamagkas Apartments was great. We had a nice comfortable, very clean, apartment equipped with all the things you need. It is situated at walking distance from Stavros beach and in this area there is a lot to discover. The owners, who are very nice, will help you finding your way around in this part of Crete. The apartments are situated in a quiet part of this area. You are close to the beautiful city of Chania where you will find the action you need. Nearby there are nice restaurants, wonderful beaches like Marathi and Loutraki. Marathi beach has a very good fish restaurant Patrelantonis, just look for the busiest restaurant at the sea. Many people visit the area of Heraklion but this area offers an ideal environment for an unforgettable stay. You will need a car and when the time has come to return you are only 15 minutes away from Chania Airport (CHQ). Do not hesitate to book an Apartment here. You will learn about the Greek way of life in a very nice atmosphere.

Perfetto!
Appartamento spazioso, pulito e dotato di ogni confort (angolo cottura, microonde, forno, phon, condizionatore, fan..), accoglienza calorosa da parte dei proprietari, super gentili e disponibili. Posizione ottima: a 15 minuti dall'aeroporto di Chania, a meno di 20 minuti di macchinia da spiaggie sabbiose e con acqua cristalline. Altre mete da raggiungere sono il Palazzo di Cnosso (a 2h) mentre le spiagge di Elafonisi e Balos sono raggiungibili con un'ora di macchina. Lo consiglio vivamente per una vacanza a Creta!!

Ottimo appartamento, ottima pulizia
Sono stato in grecia molte volte ma questa volta sono stato letteralmente adottato dai proprietari (con tutta la mia famiglia). Ho scelto uno dei 2 appartamenti più grandi, sala con terrazza grande, cucina a vista separata da ripiano, 2 camere da letto con terrazzo. Tutto pulitissimo, mobili nuovi, ben arredato. Molto bello l'approccio dei proprietari: forniscono tutto ciò che può servire appena arrivati (e oltre) come zucchero, sale, detersivo per i piatti, detergente per mani e docciaschiuma. Come benvenuto raki, frutta e verdura fresche dall'orto, acqua fredda e dolcetti fatti in casa. In questo modo non devi correre appena arrivato a prendere le cose base di prima necessità. I proprietari sono fantastici, gentili, pronti ad aiutare: mia moglie è dovuta rientrare per un'emergenza in Italia e io e i ragazzi siamo stati letteralmente presi sotto protezione, piccole cose, piccole attenzioni, ma importanti che ti fanno sentire a casa tua. George, il figlio che gestisce la casa dalla parte amministrativa ed organizzativa, è un'ottima persona, sempre presente che cerca di fornire consigli su qualsiasi cosa possa servire per una vacanza nella regione (ci ha fatto scoprire posti non pubblicizzati, insomma la Grecia familiare ed amica che si poteva trovare 20 anni fa). Organizzano anche dei barbecue con gli ospiti e la famiglia: cibo spettacolare!

Simply amazimg
We arrived to the apartment at 3.30 am, due to flight delay. George and his father were standing the entrance waiting for us with big smile warmly welcome and (apreciates a lot) a couple of home made sandwiches just made. That said, that was only the welcome but in every moment George and his parents make feel you like at your home. This is more than a simple week of holiday this is have found a second home in Crete. Thank you all a lot.

Relaxen in der Natur
Familiengeführte schöne, kleine Appartmentanlage, ruhig gelegen, ideal zum Erholen. Sehr gepflegte Anlage mit Garten und sehr nettem Vermieter. Es gibt nichts zu bemängeln, sehr zu empfehlen, man sollte allerdings mobil sein oder gut zu Fuß, da der Strand von Stavros, nicht in unmittelbarerer Nähe ist.

Semplicemente perfetto
Appartamento completo di tutto, molto molto pulito e curato. La zona è tranquilla, perfetta per una vacanza rilassante. La posizione permette di raggiungere facilmente le più belle spiagge e la città di Chania. Sicuramente uno dei punti di forza della struttura è l'ospitalità e la disponibilità dei proprietari. Per me e il mio compagno è stata la prima volta a Creta e sicuramente anche grazie a questa famiglia ci abbiamo lasciato un pezzo di cuore.

Très bon rapport qualité /prix
Un appartement très sympa, propre (ménage effectué 2 fois par semaine, changement des draps et des serviettes de toilette également) . George le propriétaire est jeune, sympa, et a préparé une petite doc pour les environs, ce qui facilite pas mal, les allées et venues . Tout le confort pour un séjour agréable. La plage est à 1,5 km , une partie privée avec parasols et matelas pour Cinq euros par personne. On trouve à se garer facilement, et il y des restaurants tout autour. pas de prise de tête , les gens sont très gentils, et l'on s'y sent en sécurité.

Hotel tres sympa
Appart hôtel tres sympathique. Lit confortable , équipement cuisine assez complet.. microonde four, toasteur etc.. L'accueil etait chaleureuse ! Avec des fruits des œufs, une boisson etc! Ils y mettent du coeur Ca se voit :-) Seul bemol Pour certaines chambres les balcons ne sont Pas privatisé mais rien de très dérangeant. Calme Pas du Tout bruyant. Tres bonne hygiène dans les chambres. C'est assez moderne et la clim marche vraiment bien ! Également, je conseille d'être véhiculé pour loger à Skamagkas Apartment. Pour la plage il faut compter moins de 10 min en voiture, voir 5 (Car Il y a en plusieurs), Et je ne l'aurai pas envisagé à pied. Idem pour les mini markets ! Je recommande pour les petits budgets en tout cas :-)

Quiet & cosy apartment near the sea
We had a great time in a beautiful surrounding. The apartment is both close to the airport (~ 10 min) and near to the sea (next beach 2 min by car, you can even walk there). Great restaurants and also markets that offer most you might need are close. It is a very quiet area. Our host did all to feel not only welcome more to feel like visiting family or friends. He and his family care about their guest in a discrete way. His recommendations brought us to a few amazing locations. I only can once again thank for such a hospitality. It was a great chance to calm and relax.but it is also a good syartingpoint to explore the island. The apartment itself is newly built and well equipped. It is really clean. And will be clear regularly. Also a exchange of towels and sheets is forsee. We found all we need and a lot we did not expect. The pictures on the apartment are what you will find. I only can recommend this place.

These apartments are very close to Stavros beach and the owners, George and his parents, will make you feel home. They're very hospitable and they'll welcome you with a glass of good raki and some homemade sweets. They are very helpful and kind, they'll give you all the pieces of information you need to know about beaches to visit in the surroundings. The apartment is super modern, comfortable, clean and well equipped. It's not my first time in Crete and I have to say this is a very very good place to stay, the best. If I ever decide to come back, I will surely book again one of these lovely apartments. This accommodation is highly suggested!
