The nearest airport? Well, I must say, I enjoyed the convenience of flying into Sitia Public Airport and not having to trek to Heraklion like those other poor souls. Being able to hike and cycle in close proximity was a delightful bonus.

Oh, how I loved maneuvering my car on that wonderful road with poor visibility.

Istron Homes in Istro exceeded all our expectations! The value for money was incredible, with beautifully arranged and modern rooms/suites offering breathtaking sea views. The bed was so comfortable, we slept like babies. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the village and a few minutes down to a stunning sandy beach. The staff, especially Dafni, were amazing - so warm, friendly, and helpful. They made us feel right at home and gave us great recommendations for things to do in the area. Oh, and let's not forget the adorable kittens that came to say hi in the evenings!

The only thing that could have made the breakfast option better would be more variety and options available.

Excellent view, comfortable bed, friendly host and maid. Helpful recommendations and free laundry service. Cute kittens on the property. Good location near beautiful beaches.

Water views, great location, near all the restaurants. 5min walk to Valusma Beach – best beach in Crete. Lovely and helpful manager. Amazing view, paved path to the beach, romantic country paths. Nature everywhere. Beaches within walking distance – sandy and pebbles. Clear water for swimming. Everything you need on the property. Daily cleaning service. Markets and taverns nearby. Delicious goat and sheep cheeses. Excellent recommendations from the manager.

Nothing, all excellent.

Perfect location near town and beach, amazing bay views, modern stylish units, well-equipped and well-designed, very clean, friendly and hospitable owner.

The cleanliness was impeccable - the rooms were spotless and well-maintained. The hotel facilities were great, with three terraces offering amazing views from every room. The location couldn't have been better - right near the town and the beach. It was so convenient to have everything within walking distance, including all the restaurants. And speaking of the beach, it was absolutely beautiful, with sandy shores and crystal clear water. The staff were also incredibly helpful and accessible. Can't fault anything about it.

Can't fault anything about it.

The view and location were breathtaking! Watching the sunset was a highlight of our Christmas stay. The bed was so comfortable, it felt like sleeping on a cloud. The host and maid were incredibly friendly and helpful, giving us great recommendations. We loved that they washed our clothes for free. And the sweet kittens that visited us in the evening were just adorable.

Finding the access from the highway was a bit tricky, especially when driving from the east. It would have been easier if we had gone west from the town.

Jaw-dropping water views, perfect location near restaurants and just a 5-minute walk to the best beach in Crete. Dafne, the host, is amazing and goes above and beyond for guests.

The location of these homes is truly unbeatable. Not only are they close to nice beaches, but they are also just a 15-minute walk away from a beautiful sandy beach with crystal clear water. you'll find yourself near all the restaurants, making it convenient to try different cuisines during your stay. The rooms are well-equipped and offer amazing views of the sea, allowing you to relax and unwind. The staff is friendly and always ready to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

Although the rooms have everything you could need, the bathroom could use some upgrading, as it has an old-style corner shower with curtains that tend to let water get everywhere.

We recently stayed at Istron Homes for our second time and it was just as amazing as we remembered. The view from the hotel is absolutely breathtaking, and the cleanliness of the rooms and the overall atmosphere are top-notch. The owner is incredibly friendly and hospitable, making us feel right at home. The room itself was well-equipped and beautifully designed. Additionally, the location is perfect, with an excellent beach nearby and plenty of local shops and restaurants within walking distance.

Would recommend this hotel.

The property offers exceptional views of the sea and mountains. It is located close to a stunning beach and convenient amenities. The rooms are sparkling clean and well-equipped. The host is helpful and communication was excellent.

Felt very happy, no complaints.
