Nymphes Luxury Apartments & Studios

I have been going here every year for at least 5 years, and it always is an amazing experience. Not far from Heraklion (25km/25min) and from the beach (Ag. Pelagia, ~15min by car). It is up on a hill and thus very quiet, which is always hard to find in Crete in the summer. The evenings are often cool with a night breeze, which is a blessing in the hot Cretan summer. Pepi is a wonderful host, and takes care of any requests you may have with a smile and the traditional Cretan hospitality. The views from the balconies are truly amazing and breathtaking -- I could stay on the balcony for the entire vacation. The swimming pool is 12m long, which makes it great for relaxation but also for (light) workout swimming which is also great given how much one eats in the surrounding…... ++

The beds were excellent! The views of the Agia Pelagia bay where a dream! The attention to detail and the feeling of being at home, with a great hostess ( she is always available yet not intrusive) & timely housekeeping!... ++

We were welcomed by the extremely charming host who took care of our last minute booking and our dinner, and by a bottle of wine in the fridge! The view is breathtaking - even locals consider it one of the best on the island. Each room is well isolated and has its own terrace. Seem to be equally good for solitary travellers and for families with kids.... ++
