Had an extended stay in a poolside apartment where there was excellent housekeeping, furnishings, and maintenance - inside and out. There were also good WiFi, furnishings, and electrical outlets in the apartment. An interesting mix of languages were heard during our stay. The family-owners of this 16-unit Aparthotel were consistently considerate, friendly, helpful, and respectful of guests. A break in the pleasantness occurred when a noisy group apparently bought drinks in the cafe to use the pool for an afternoon. PennyStella was located about a kilometer from both Agia Pelagia and Ligaria beaches and there were easy to find, but steep, small shortcuts to the beaches. The walk from either beach (and the multiple restaurants and stores there) was fairly strenuous - most people drove or rode. We had the veggie pizza and Greek salad at the PennyStella cafe - they were very good. There was a seasonal supermarket about 150 m somewhat uphill from PennyStella and it had a good, reasonably priced selection of items for self-catering. Across the road from PennyStella was a chapel, Ekklisia Agia Marina (well-attended feast day ~July 17), that regularly attracted tourists to its courtyard for photo ops of Agia Pelagia and the seaside. PennyStella’s pool was another major attraction - good-sized and well maintained. Bus stop #A13 for Heraklion’s Port bus station (3-5 daily - details on the KTEL website) was just outside PennyStella.
