We were upgraded to a 2 bedroom apartment. The rooms were airy and quirky. We had a terrace and 2 balconies so there was always somewhere shaded to sit. The breakfast that was delivered to our room each morning was incredible, a basket full of local produce and a hot dish every day. Everything was delicious. Everyone we encountered was so friendly and welcoming. We truly felt like special guests. The location is great. A short stroll into the village and silent at night. We can’t wait to return next year.

Villa Lakosti - Beautiful!

Only stayed a couple of nights but our room was great. Booked last minute but Eleni was so accommodating, helpful & friendly (as were all the staff). Easy communication, everything fully explained, rooms are so pretty as is the whole place. We ate at the restaurant once and it did not dissappoint (there is a reason it's one of the top rated restaurants in the village!!). Highly recommend!

Property manager was very friendly and helpful although we were forced to pay double for laundry service when the third party company decided to charge extra and the hotel staff paid and we had to reimburse them. Poor communication and customer service there. Room was next to restaurant and noise carried easily through the walls. Village was concenient with lots of dining options. Very steep walk to and from the boardwalk and beach.

Lovely place.

A lovely welcome awaits you here, it is the opposite of corporate. The grounds at Villa Iokasti are some of the most photogenic I have seen, lots of pots and succulents, plenty of photo ops. The pool area is just about big enough, we didn’t have a problem getting shade or sun beds during our stay in early June. The rooms are cleaned every other day which is fine. They have a kitchenette but don’t expect to do any cooking, but why would you? We would have liked a toaster and a smaller saucepan but for traditional Greek breakfasting it is good enough. Our first room had a problem with the aircon and r]the shower but we were moved to another room as soon as we mentioned it to the hotel, not sure what would have happened if the place was full. The rooms on 2 levels have aircon in the bedrooms but not in the downstairs area, so if you are planning on using the sofa beds be prepared to be very warm. The bedroom door in our room wouldn’t close because the bed was in the way, quirky but indicative of the small things that could be better. We tend not to eat where we are staying so we didn’t eat dinner at the restaurant but it looked good and is certainly a nice environment if you try it. The staff are all very helpful and overall it is a good place and with a few tweaks could be even better. The resort is only 20minutes walk from Hersonissos but a world apart in character. It is pretty, full of good places to eat and drink, and plenty of places for breakfast.

Another fab Crete holiday.

We loved staying at Vila Iokasti. The apartment was fairly basic but comfortable. The place was very clean and well kept. The restaurant was wonderful, food delicious and great service. The pool area was quite small and sometimes very busy for the amount of apartments.
