Property was clean and fresh, views were amazing. Host Dafni was intent on making our stay enjoyable and ensuring we had everything we needed. Cleaner came in daily to empty bins, change towels and bedding. The beautiful beach was across the road and took around 10 minutes to get there. You can get a bus across the road to Agios Nikolaos, a 15 minute ride cost €2. A lovely place with a marina and shops and amazing views and restaurants
To get the amazing view you had to climb a couple of ramps and many steps, which in the blazing heat was not much fun. Also had to climb steps or hills to get back up from the beach. This location would not suit disabled person

It's I belive everything as a whole. It is a wonderful location. It's very clean. Host is extremely helpful. It's Greece 😁. This apartment has it all. Very comfortable. We were with the three of us. Beds are great, big bathroom, kitchen with everything one needs. Surrounding is stunning. Not to mention Voulossima beach nearby which is just a few clicks away. For anyone staying there, please take care of that wonderful cat called Boukitsa (small bite).
Absolutely nothing.

Excellent location and beautiful views for our three week stay. We had Superior Apartment (No 14) which was had everything we needed. Dafni, our host, was very accommodating throughout our time here. Housekeeper visiting each day was appreciated (towels and bedding changed every few days). We had a hire car and enjoyed visiting places such as Sitia, Kathara Plateau, Kritsa, Lasith Plateau, Mochlos and Myrtos . Went Agios Nicholas once by car and once by bus (parking was an issue on our first visit). Local beaches were lovely but steep paths to access. We used the beach at the nearby Istron Bay Hotel (€15 per day for two loungers and towels) as it had easier access and we could get lunch at their beach area restaurant. Walking into Istro for dinner was nice. We ate at MeRaki on several occasions. Also had an anniversary lunch at Macrame by Voulisma which was excellent. Supported local supermarkets for our everyday provisions for the apartment.
No problems with the property.

Istron Homes is amazing. When you navigate the road, the parking and the stairs you will be rewarded with a spectacular view. We had the 2 bedroom apartment. It is a modern apartment, very clean with a well equipped kitchen. It has 3 balconies. We ate our breakfast each morning on the large main balcony. The location is excellent. It's a short drive to Agios Nikolaos but you are away from hustle of the city. You can walk to the nearby beach. Daphne is a wonderful host. She gave us lots of useful information about the area.

We loved our stay. Dafni messaged us from soon after booking, and kept in touch until we arrived. She met us on our arrival to show us around the property, giving us a free upgrade to a maisonette. The property was just as described, clean and tidy, with everything we needed. There’s a reasonable sized fridge/freezer to store good quantities of food and drink The view is AMAZING! Within 10/15 minutes walking distance of beach, tavernas and supermarkets via a path along the road.
The apartments are above a busy road, so traffic noise can be heard when sat on the balcony, but do you get used to it. One of the wooden stair treads needs repairing for safety, as it is split and is unsettling, as it moves when trodden on.

Istron Homes appts are perfect in everything, from location, proximity to the beautiful Voulisma beach, cleanness and comfort to the friendly and welcomming staff. We LOVED the view so much it was heart-breaking to leave. Would definitely choose the same host for our next visit to Crete.
A washing machine would’ve been great but it’s a nice-to-have thing, not a must-have.

Its spacious enough, has all the necessities, the bed is comfortable, the terrace is supplied with a comfy sofa and tables with chairs…its laid out and furnished as a home. I felt great here! Staff is also lovely and very helpful.
Pillows… all 4 were very big and high which is not good for me. Would be nice to have few that are lower but to be fair I have not asked if they would have them to change. However, there were 2 small sofa pillows that I resorted to so was all good in the end.

The location is perfect, not in the middle of the touristic small town of Istron, but at 5-6 minutes walk, the view is incredible, exactly as advertised in the photos, at walking distance are 3 beautiful beaches, one of them is a hidden beach where you can be all on your own, the apartments are spotless clean, modern and equipped with any amenity you might need, but the star of Istron homes is Dafni, the Manager, who made sure anything we requested was supplied or fixed within hours, always with a smile and with patience. Thank you Dafni, we had an excellent vacation.
There were ants in the kitchen, they are not visible all the time, they come out of the wall. so we had to be careful with storing food and just a warning if you are with a car, access to the main road can be difficult to maneuver, as the angle of road visibility is not the best when you drive down from Istron Homes, it is a matter of waiting till you feel it is 100% clear and taking a leap of faith

Very convenient to get to the hotel from the bus either from the Port or Airport. Hostess, Daphne treated us like family. She did everything she could to make out trip memorable. She was always available on her phone for any questions. She helped us with planning the time, giving us recommendations for restaurant and also brought us 3 large bottles of water when I asked where I could get water from.
