Property information

Welcome to our little slice of paradise by the beach! Perched in a prime location with a fascinating, uninterrupted sea view and awe-inspiring sunsets, The Spot On The Beach offers an unforgettable escape in a tranquil coastal setting, only a short drive away from Heraklion! All four apartments are equipped for a comfortable stay, plus there is a shared swimming pool, ideal for refreshing dips under the night sky.

Neighbourhood information

The main part of Pantanassa Beach is situated towards the east, whereas towards the west you’ll find the popular Chelidoni Beach, a small bay protected from winds and currents. Only a short walk away are some of the most authentic and well-established taverns of the area, attracting lovers of good food and hearty portions from Heraklion and the nearby suburbs (usually packed during weekends!). There is immediate access to the island’s main motorway (also known as BOAK); you can easily travel to all parts of Crete, and visit all its different regions. The city centre of Heraklion is only 15 minutes away by car, and the Palace of Knossos 20 minutes. On the other side of the motorway, and within close distance from the complex, is the monastery of Aghia Fotini; experience breathtaking views of the Cretan sea and Heraklion from here (open to the public). IMPORTANT NOTE: as there are no shopping facilities in the immediate vicinity, we recommend that you take care of your grocery shopping before you check-in.
