Logement entier à Papaflessa, Heraklion

Newly renovated in 2025, this luxury apartment in central Heraklion puts you at the heart of one of Europe's most storied cities — with the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Lion Square, and the Venetian Harbour all within a short walk. Whether you're here for the Minoan history, the food, the island — or all three — this is the base that makes everything easy.

THE APARTMENT
A fresh, modern 50 sqm space designed for comfort. The open-plan living area flows into a fully equipped kitchen with stovetop, coffee machine, and refrigerator — everything you need to start your mornings right. The bedroom is cool, and set up with quality linens. Step onto the private balcony for your morning coffee with city air around you.

Everything is in place: air conditioning, high-speed WiFi, washing machine, flat-screen TV, hairdryer, iron, in-room safe, and private entrance. The building has smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and a fire extinguisher — fully certified and registered.
