We loved our stay at Ourania Apartments. Service was great, staff were super friendly and helpful. The apartments we stayed in were slightly older but still fine. We had a lovely big balcony which was amazing. I think there are also newer apartments in the same complex which look much more modern which would be ideal for our next stay. The apartments are only a short walk from the beach and restaurants so location was perfect! Couldnt have been happier in terms of value for money - couldnt believe how little we paid for 5 nights! I would recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ourania Apartments. The complex is very picturesque with a beautiful pool, the staff are lovely and extremely hospitable, the location is perfect (being less than 5 minuets from the beach and wonderful restaurants), and we especially loved the wild cats that roamed the area. The apartments themselves, although are very basic and fairly bare, are kept very clean and bedsheets and towels are replaced regularly, and have all the basic necessities for comfortable living. There is no real faulting Ourania — although I would say for future guests — be wary of hidden fees for things that seemed to be advertised as included but in fact come at a cost i.e air conditioning, safe, etc.

Room was a bit on the small size in the living area with only 2 ring elec hob for cooking (studio appts very cramped) but an ideal base when only really using room for sleeping. Rest of complex was good inc bar/catering, staff excellent and reasonable choice of bars and eating places within 15 mins walk (as was the beach). Pool area was big enough for us when going out of season

The hotel consists of an enclosed compound with about two dozen individual apartments arranged around a few courtyards and laneways. It really feels like a charming, immaculately kept hamlet. It is also great value, but be aware that air conditioning is an extra 6 Euros per day. WiFi is free at the pool and bar, but that also costs extra to have in your room. The complex does not have a private beach front. You stroll about 5 minutes along a country lane to get to a small but charming beach with beautiful surf. It feels like the Greek version of visiting my grand mother's place. It also felt "authentically" Greek, at least relative to the image of a charming Greek village in my mind's eye.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Ourania Apartments. The apartments are set well back from the main road from Heraklion and close to beaches, small shops. supermarkets, restaurants, car hire etc. Well kept gardens. Nice to find a kettle and toaster at the apartments. Requested not to use tap water in the kettle etc so required to buy bottled water but very cheap at local supermarkets. No hairdryer, cloth, tea towel or washing up liquid in the apartment but soap in the bathroom. Milos restaurant is very good (only complaint - portions too big). Bus stop 13 on main road in walking distance - easy to travel to and from airport, to Heraklion town, to Hersonissos and bus available from Heraklion Bus Garage to visit ancient Minoan ruins at Knossos. Breakfast available at the bar cafe and salads till early afternoon (both very good). Timing of our stay was nearing the end of the season and the local shops were very quiet/some had closed down already but still 'all happening' in Hersonissos and Heraklion shopping areas. Would recommend staying at Ourania Apartments.

Suites are nicely set out, in a villa-like arrangement, and the pool area is nice. Sadly, there is no internet in the room, and though it has a kitchenette and sitting area, the layout is uninspiring and there are nearly no decorative touches, giving the place a drab feel. No shower curtain so the whole bathroom gets wet when you shower, a pet peeve of mine. Still, the price was excellent and it technically is a suite with kitchenette, so if you don't need internet in the room it could be a great deal.
