Sofia, the owner, is incredibly hard working, efficient, responsive and kind. We had to rearrange some of our travel plans and she did everything within her control to accommodate us. While we were at our apartment, she and her staff took excellent care of us and took a personal interest in us. We already plan to return for another vacation. 5 stars, highly recommend!
Sofia and Sofia were very kind very clean property and very nice staff. Very good for small family with kids. I will definitely be back in the futur.
Efxaristo poli!
Sofia amazing… we could totally tell she is so very devoted to her family business. I love her employees were very personable.

This is truly a gem! We were looking for a safe, quiet beach and sand vacation and got everything we wanted and more! The apartment is only about 15 minutes by car from the airport. We recommend booking the airport transfer. For the price and ease of travel, it’s well worth it. He even played authentic Greek music for us to get us into vacation mode! Sofia greeted us upon arrival and was very friendly. She took us to our room personally. The rooms have everything you need. The photos are very accurate. I was surprised how well the AC kept us cool at night. Also, having a refrigerator in the room is very helpful. Beds were fine, and we enjoyed sitting on the terrace at night getting fresh sea air. The area has plenty of supermarkets within a 10 min walk. You can find many Restaurants and souvenirs shops as well. The pool and beach is amazing!! The service you get is way over my expectations. You are always asked if you would like a drink or something to eat at very affordable prices. I recommend the club sandwich! The beach is just steps away, offering blue water and sand. The staff makes sure the free chairs for guests are always clean after use. This is a very well run, professional establishment by Sofia and her extended family. Do not think twice about booking, do it! I’ve been an orbitz VIP member for many years and have stayed dozens of Places. There are some 5 and 4 star hotels which didn’t even compare to the friendliness of the staff. Thank you, Sofia for everything!
Truely a great spot with pool and beach at your toes outside heraklion. Breakfast available onsite. The best shower in greece so far! Clean room. The great blockout rollershades and strong AC kept us cool. Angeliki was super helpful and fun. I would def go back.
We had a lovely time. The (very extended) family who run the property are lovely, kind, generous and attentive to everything. The apartment is spotless and cleaned every day but quite basic. Lovely beach bar and access to beach,we even had a sea view. If you want a calm, relaxing, safe holiday, we would recommend.

2 night stay
My husband and I had a late ferry and didn't arrive until just before midnight. We were thankful that they waited for our arrival.
The room was ok. It was a good size for us and clean. The shower was fairly small but it did the job. I found the bed too hard. Also want to make note that there was absolutely no wifi available in our room. This was important to us as we relied on wifi for our trip. We were told some rooms have very poor connection.
The apartments are right on the beach. It was a nice set up on the beach. But we didn't take advantage of it as we weren't there long.

Le gros plus, les chaises longues et les parasols donnant directement sur la plage.
Sehr sauberes kleines Hotel. Alle waren sehr freundlich. Der Pool und Strand waren extrem sauber. Absolut faire Preise an der Strandbar. Unbedingt die Burger probieren: LECKER!
Es ist zu keiner Zeit ein Problem Liegen am Strand zu bekommen.
Frank Apartments ist eine perfekte Oase für entspannte Ferien.

Séjour agréable
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour. Le cadre est très agréable. On y passe des journées paisibles en bordure de mer ou dans la piscine qui est bien entretenue.
Le personnel est toujours disponible et très sympathique.
Sofia la Responsable est vraiment très accueillante.
On peut se restaurer sur place ou alentour.
Seul bémol, il manque un micro-onde et éventuellement une cafetière. Mais on peut se débrouiller avec ce qu'on y trouve. Bon rapport qualité/prix.
