With a funky, modern aesthetic and a host of handy amenities to help make you feel at home away from home, this unique apartment is conveniently located close to the centre of Crete's capital, Heraklion. We think it would make the ideal base for anyone hoping to get to grips with the city, and those who don't necessarily want to rely on a car, as many of Heraklion's highlights are found within a short walk, including the wonderful Archaeological Museum just a kilometre from the home.
