The Old Pomegranate House - Sea view - AC - WIFI

5/5 Excellent

Extraordinary Place to Stay!

"We originally reserved our stay at the Old Pomegranate House in 2020, but had to cancel due to COVID. We rescheduled for April of 2024. As a result of years of planning, we had very high expectations for our vacation. The Old Pomegranate House did not disappoint! The villa is rustic and beautifully appointed. The attention to detail of everything in the villa is superb! Despina, the owner who happens to be an architect, did a fabulous job decorating the villa and made herself available for anything we needed during our stay. The view from the patio of mountains and sea is spectacular! The village of Mirsini was so unique, like stepping back in time. We are already planning our next Crete vacation that will include another stay at the Old Pomegranate House!"

3/5 Okay

plenty of other hotels around

"Very disappointing stay. This photos show a pleasant hotel with sea views. What we had was a view of the sea with a very ugly old half built building obscuring the view. The receptionist was surly, abrupt and generally unpleasant. No welcoming smile, I felt like we were a burden. The room was full of mosquitos. The bed was a bit like sleeping on a blanket covered rock and only 2 pillows. Breakfast the first morning... my husband is a diabetic and is not able to eat any of the cakes and pastries offered. there was only one piece of dry looking cheese left. This is not usually a problem as most hotels will be able to offer something else, such as eggs or omelette. So I asked the person at the desk (same guy as checked us in) if there was any cooked or other savoury food. the answer was ... 'no'. not even, I am sorry but we don't have anything else. So, having paid €11 each for breakfast (for 2 days) we had breakfast elsewhere. "

Veranta DownTown Sitia - 2min from Beach/ Centre

5/5 Excellent

Perfect Location

"This apartment exceeded our expectations. Not only was it exactly as described and as the pictures showed, it was better in real life. Very spacious lounge area with comfy seating. The kitchen has plenty of equipment and a large Fridge/freezer. Super bathroom with a washing machine, and all the powder/conditioner needed to enable us to wash most of our clothes before we left. The views from the massive balconies was stunning. Being riggt in the town centre you can walk to loads of cafes & tavernas very easily. Right opposite is a bakery/cake shop that sells the most amazing ice cream. Our host, Despoinia was super efficient, explained everything we needed to know and was very ea sy to gef hold of w hen we had a question. Overall a very nice place to stay and we would not hesitate to stay again and we are very happy to recommend this apartment."

Selfcatering Villa in Crete Makrigialos withprivate Pool,Sea and mountain view

5/5 Excellent

Lots of character

"A lovely house for a relaxing holiday. No road noise, lovely views (mountains, sea, sunset). Many beaches within easy reach, with decent main roads. Makri Gialos was better than we expected for shopping, with a butcher and fruit & vegetable shop in addition to the mini markets (which sell most essentials) and cafes for treats. Nice restaurants such as Dragon's Cave, Diaskari, Kami, several along by the harbour and more all along the coast. Also Roman and Minoan ruins to add a bit of culture. The night sky is awesome. George answered all our questions and is a lovely, kind host. Efcharistó!"

4/5 Good

"Great for a weeks’ stay, centrally located and convenient. With some upgrades (investing in newer, softer pillows and better mattresses) this could easily become an incredible small hotel. Breakfast is provided and is basic (for those who commented), but it has a great selection to keep you full until lunch. Room is spotless and cleaned daily, and staff is lovely. Overall, a nice experience and would probably stay again. "

Windmill holiday great experience

"A very unusual and quirky place to stay, it has been converted to a comfortable holiday home on a number of levels ( so you need to have full mobility). Our host was very warm and welcoming and we had some very interesting conversations. the beds were very comfortable , the kitchen was well equipped too. It was a peaceful location set in beautiful gardens off the main road but it was very easy to visit the next village of Palekastro for shopping and eating in the tavernas. Not far into Siteia if you want a busier place. The courtyard is a lovely place to sit to take in the atmosphere. We would recommend for couples and small groups. If you enjoy touring and exploring there are some lovely beaches within 20 to 50 minutes drives depending on your choices. If you like quiet and peaceful beaches try Itanos and Xerocampos. A great holiday, will return."
