just back from Kalithea Apts. The pluses far outweigh the minuses. The view is priceless and though basic (some apartments more updated than others) the private terraces and cleanliness make it acceptable. Georgia and Nikos who run reception and the bar are absolutely great! The location requires either a bus ride or taxi to either Aghios Nikolaos or Elounda, the... more

We were made to feel very welcome at the Kalithea Appartments. The view was indeed amazing. The bus service was a little disappointing they really did run on Greek time, so we hired a quad for 80 euros for the week. That meant cabs every night to there and back Agios Nikolaos and Elounda. which worked out 20 euros a... more

Stunning views of the town of Agios Nicholas, surrounding hills and sea, the apartments are nestled on a hill making it a need to hire a car or the use of taxi's or buses as walking would not be advised as its about 5km from surrounding towns. Their is a swimming pool which is in use from 9am till 8pm... more

Well what can we say - fantastic views, people, location & the service was excellent. The apartments are loacted in between 2 towns, Agios Nicholas & Elounda both wonderful for visits, shopping, eating & drinking! However please note the apartments are situatued in the hills & may not suit people with walking difficulties. more

Stayed at Kalithea appts last September ( 2007) Wanted to revisit eastern Crete again / local flight from Bournemouth Airport ,UK with easy access to north and south east Crete. Kalithea certainly fitted the bill- great base to explore from. Upgraded to a double maisonette on initial booking and we were not disappointed on arrival. Spacious and airy accomodation with... more

We arrived at about 2 in the morning and was able to purchase milk etc from the mini market (what a bonus) and despite what others have written it is not exceptionally costly in comparison to the supermarkets. Our accomodation was nice and the staff ie Nikos and Georgia were lovely. The pool though deep was clean and a joy... more

Kalithea means beautiful view and it cerainly lives up to its name, giving extensive views of Elounda and Agios Nikolaios. The complex is clean, well maintained, very pretty and the staff are friendly and helpful. Accommodationis basic in the studios.The complex is at the top of a hill and therefore unsuitable for anyone with walking difficulties and very young children.... more

Recently my family and I have stayed for two weeks at the Kalithea apts. Accomodation was clean and in a fantastic location, great views of Elounda and Ag Nick'. The only negative is its isolation. You have to take the bus or taxi to either town. Had such a great time, considering going back next year. Reccomend the Kalithea apts... more
