Wonderful hosts, gorgeous villa, breathtaking view, great breakfast delivered to us. Two great beaches 3 and 15 mins away on foot. Agios Nikolaos was less than a 20 min drive away. Hosts went out of their way to help with any request we had. They cleaned the villa every day. Definitely recommend.

Dialinas Apartments, hotel in Istro

Just a 12-minute walk from Voulisma Beach and 0.6 miles from Karavostasi Beach, Dialinas Apartments features accommodations in Istro, with a garden and barbecue facilities.

We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment, which is excelent for families with 4 members (or even 5). The beds from bedrooms were big and comfortable, everything very clean. Every bedroom had a small terace, and there was also a big one on the dining area. Over all, very good value for money. Also, the bakery nearby opening at 7 am is a big plus for breakfast. Supermarket close, evefything you need.

Manolis was very pleasant and helpful. He gave me a quick tour of the town when I arrived and he also arranged informal bicycle hire for me. He accomodated my request for 4 pillows. The bedding was very clean and the bed very comfortable. There was a washing machine on the premises - invaluable to a lightly-packed traveller. The maid was very friendly and pleasant

    Istron itself is a small town with some conveniences like ATM, tavernas etc. We stayed there not because we wanted to be in this particular town but because of the access it gave is to the surrounding area. With a car we could easily reach many beautiful beaches, ancient villages in the mountains, Ag Nicholas for history, churches etc. and some genuine Greek restaurants, mainly in villages. It is a good central point for many things that interest us.

    Istron is a lovely place to stay with fantastic beaches and very friendly people. It is not an overly lively resort but has enough for older teens (Palace Bar was great and had lovely cocktails too and Friends had live music on some nights). It is also a great location to explore more of the island

    If you want to relax soak up good food people and sandy beaches then stay for months on end. Car is always great to move around and get further out to towns like leopetra. There are nice restaurants all around the town and beyond. Never felt like I was short of choices and this trip was during April which many places close until the season.

    We were there for the last week of the season (late Oct) so the hotel was half full and quiet, not sure what it would be like in high season, but we had a great time! Great location, good private beach, terraces, gardens and a great swimming pool alternative. Beautiful views. The food in the hotel was amazing - we had a breakfast and dinner deal which was perfect for us. Breakfast was a buffet with good choices every day. The evening meal was 4 courses - all delicious cretan food and different every night - we would consider staying here again just for the food! They also had a great selection of cretan wine - very well chosen - all delicious. Our room was simple and functional - perhaps more 'basic' than we were expecting. The double bed was (of course) two singles pushed together which wasn't so good. The wifi in the room was non existent - this could not be addressed, so we had to use the wifi in the bar (3 floors up). They should get this right for all rooms or make it clear that there is no wifi. Ending on a positive...we found all staff were all very welcoming, friendly and helpful, with 'good enough' to excellent English (our Greek is terrible..). We had a lovely stay and would go back.

    We had a great time in Istron. The location is perfect: - 3min from Voulisma beach and other amazing small bay beaches. - 12min by car from Agios Nikolaos. - very nice & traditional villages around 15-30min ( Kritsa, Kroustas, etc). - next to the rooms there is a mini market that the owner runs, which is extremely convenient for daily stuff you need. The apartment is new, fully equiped & comfortable (washing maschine, iron available). Very friendly & welcoming owner!!! I would definitely recommend & revisit.

    The communication with Christina was always easy and she was really attentive. The host Ioanna made our stay unforgettable and we felt like at home. One of the things that we loved was when Ioanna brought us some figs of her own tree for the first breakfast! The appartment is clean and has everything you need for a perfect stay: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, living room and we had a nice balcony with a view to the sea. If you want to feel at home in Crete don’t hesitate to stay at Pellas Appartment.

    The house is beautifully beautifully furnished and decorated as well as perfectly equipped. The bead was very comfy and has a wonderful view of the bay and sea. We also enjoyed the jacuzzi every day after our explorations of the area. Even beach chairs and umbrella for trips to the many beaches in the area are available. The host checks always if you need something or if he can make your stay exen better. If possible I would rate the house with 12 points.

    Apartments are situated in very nice quiet place, every night we slept with the sounds of the sea. Rooms are with a nice view to the sea. Everything that we need hosts left for us in apartments. We felt like at home. Very important thing is that the most beautiful beaches on Crete are there, 5-10 minutes from apartments

    Rich dinner positions, sea really close to hotel, service, location, the bay, closeness to the town with other beaches, tavernas, shops. Petros, who speaks Russian and is familiar with Russian mentality, and keeps the polite distance while being communicable, made the stay more comfortable for me.
