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.

This place was absolutely divine, with a stunning ocean view that made waking up a true pleasure. The decor is modern and beautiful, and the place also has a lovely pool. The owner and the staff are incredibly nice and accommodating. We had the greatest experience!

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.
