Achilles Apartments, Kalamaki, Crete
Set back above the coast road on a small private hill with lawned gardens to the rear, these two individual properties, with a total of three 3 bedroom apartments, one 2 bedroom apartment and three 1 bedroom apartments share their own 14 metre fan shaped swimming pool and enjoy an enviable position and superb seaviews. With the sandy
beach of
Kalamaki no more than 300 metres away and a number of nearby tavernas and small supermarkets, the situation couldn't be more convenient and car hire, although useful, is certainly not essential.
We have featured these properties in our programme almost since the conception of Freelance Holidays in 1984 and over the years they have become firm favourites of many of our customers. They are owned by Achilles and Manolis, two brothers from a wealthy and distinguished Chania family. Pavlos, Achilles son, who was not much more than a boy when we first met is now a medical practitioner and is following the family tradition of looking after our guests and keeping the apartment's facilities right up to date. Meanwhile, his father and uncle are enjoying a well earned retirement .
Some traffic noise is audible from the coast road.
Achilles Apt 3, 3 bedrooms
Enjoying superb sea views, this apartment is furnished and decorated in subtle shades of green and white and has an open plan living/dining area with comfortable sofas and stylish black marble dining table.

Comfortably sleeping six, there are 2 twin bedrooms plus 1 double bedroom, each with its own private balcony facing east, with sea views towards Chania and catching the morning sun. The three bedrooms share one full bathroom and one shower room.
