What we liked:
+ It was a comfortable and not expensive accommodation
+ Our studio-room was clean, spacious and very nice, with everything we needed: air-conditioner (free of charge) and an overhead fan, many sockets, TV, safe, Wi-Fi, hair dryer, 3 towels per guest, enough light (natural and electric), but there were shutters and awning over the balcony for the sun
+ Very good equipped kitchenette: microwave, electric stove, toaster, kettle, drip coffee maker, sandwich toaster, eating and cooking utensils, paper towels, a full bottle of detergent and a new dish sponge (in an economy apartment!)
+ There was also a portion of soap, shower gel, hair cap and slippers in two sizes – everything is like in a 4* hotel!
+ The hostess also cares about the health of her guests: in our room we found a set of colour masks, disinfectants for hands and for the table
+ Our room was decorated in the same style of floral theme – pictures and plates on the walls, curtains, decorative pillows and even furniture handles. So nice, it wasn’t a faceless standard apartment!
+ Check-out time is about 11:30 – very comfortable!
+ Good situation of the hotel: 2 minutes walk to a cafe and a mini-supermarket, 5 minutes to Elounda beach, of course, this is not the best beach in Crete, but there are no waves here
+ Hostess Popi also lives there, so the reception is almost 24/7; we arrived at night and Popi waited for us even with a mini-dinner (for free!), because the restaurants and shops were already closed. She prepared cheese and spinach pies, chocolate, honey with yogurt, crackers, juice and water. Incredible hospitality!
+ Popi also kept a place in a public parking for us (sometimes it can be full)
+ And before our departure Popi gave us a fantastic present – a bottle of grappa and a bottle of olive oil, all in safe packaging for a long flight
+ There we felt not in as a hotel, but as at home of our dear aunt, thanks to Popi!

What we didn’t like:
- It was the smallest shower in our live (probably 70x70 cm) - even for a very thin person it was inconvenient to use; the curtain closed the shower and the toilet (photo!), so the toilet was always wet, but the floor in the bathroom was also flooded; the window opened right into the shower to make it even smaller and from the balcony opposite we could be seen naked, and also there wern’t enough hooks for 3 towels per guest 
- One morning there wasn’t hot water, which can be a problem for lovers of the morning shower
- Unsafe old sockets in our room, some of them sparked
- The pillows were uncomfortable for our taste, too thin
- There was no drying rack for swimwear
- Our balcony overlooked the common courtyard sometimes noisy in the evening (although it wasn’t a problem for 3 days), in general all street sounds were heard in the room but the hotel is situated in a quiet place, so there wasn’t a lot traffic noise
- Cleaning service 2 times a week (this may be a problem for somebody, but it was ok for us)
- The wardrobe was small and not very comfortable to use, perhaps you will need better wardrobe for a longer stay
- First time it’s difficult to find the hotel using the navigator, you need to ask the hostess in advance for the directions

Very good variant for a short period and excellent hostess

We had an 11 night stay.it is so comfortable and poppy who owns the apartments is so kind and she really looks  after you.the apartment  has everything you need from the kitchen to the bedroom. Its a perfect  position just off the main square so only two minutes and your in the centre of bars and restaurants. We have stayed there many times and we will be back.good luck for next season poppy from bev and brent.xx

Beautiful  and traditional palemilos apartments elounda crete.

We have stayed at PALAMILOS APARTMENTS seven times since 2012.
The level of satisfaction has always been very high: Elounda is a small earthly paradise; the apartments are beautiful and functional, in a strategic position: quiet but at the same time close to the beach, restaurants, minimarkets, pharmacy and so on.
Last year we did not come because of COVID but this year we returned for two weeks in September: PALEMILOS APARTMENTS complies with all anti-COVID regulations, cleaning and disinfection are always guaranteed and the staff is extremely attentive ... all this has allowed us to experience a peaceful and completely safe holiday.
As usual, congratulations to Popi (the owner): she is always a very kind person and attentive to the needs of her customers.
Ultimately, a highly recommended accommodation!

a safe holiday

Popi is a unique and very kind host. The location was great and charming, located in a central area, near to the beaches and easy to reach. Amazing! Thank you so much popi!!!!! We will come back as soon as possible!!

Eccellente

This complex of eight or ten apartments is located in th center of Elounda, very close to the church, all the finest cafes and restaurants, four or five supermarkets, the port with boats going to Spinalonga, and most importantly, the splendid sandy central beach. Your walk to the beach will last 3 minutes, but if you want to reach its better and more distant part to avoid stones at the water's edge, you will have to walk another 50 or 60 meters.
Initially my wife and I stayed in apartment No. 6, but after four days we were moved to apartment No. 10 in a newer building, because of some administrative issue, so we could compare at least these two. They were both very similar, consisting of a fully equipped kitchen with all the facilities (electric stove top, micro oven, toasters, fridge, dishes, pots and pans, cutlery, etc) as well as a nice dining table + chairs, a bedroom with double bed, closet and dresser, and a bathroom with shower, sink and toilet. The double bed is good but sticks to one corner in the room, so the person lying by the wall has a hard time getting up without disturbing his or her partner. The shower in apt. 6 was large and comfortable, while the sink and toilet are somewhat crowded, whereas in apt 10 the sink and toilet are larger and better, but the shower is so narrow that using it became a nightmare. TV is Greek only and the AC is excellent. All said, we enjoyed staying at Palemilos, both because of the fantastic and quiet location, as well as all the facilities included and the relatively low price.
But what makes this place really extraordinary is Popi the landlady and owner. Popi is a retired English teacher and a very, very special lady, friendly, helpful and useful to a degree that is unsurpassable. She manages and directs the complex with the help of two younger maids who keep everything clean and in exemplary order. From the hearty beginning, Popi told us that we can turn to her with any question or problem. One such problem occurred when we found that our mobile phone disappeared; we contacted Popi from another phone and although she was with her husband in a village some 30 Km away, she immediately drove back, along with hubby, to help us looking for the lost item. We emptied the safety deposit box and turned everything upside down but the mobile was apparently lost. Then Popi went back to the safe, put her hand inside and found the mobile, which somehow got stuck to the dark unlit side wall. She also explained to us many things about Crete and Greece in general. Finally, she provided cakes, fruits and even a few bottles of home-made raki and olive oil as gifts free of charge.

Extraordinary

Second visit to these beautiful apartments.
Absolutely perfect yet again, never disappointed.
Its the little touches that mean so much, excellent communication and a lovely welcome gift in the fridge on arrival.
We stayed in apartment 11 this time which had a separate bedroom and bigger bathroom.
All clean and kept that way throughout the stay.
No pool but very central and close to the beach.
I cant recommend highly enough.
Poppy and Sofia are just lovely people.
We wouldn't stay anywhere else. 

Return visit

We had two wonderful apartments,beautifully decorated with all you need for a holiday. Lovely Popi(who goes out of her way to be helpful,welcoming and generous)had left cheeses,fruit juice and an admirable orange cake in the fridge for us.Although Elounda`s main street is so close, it is very quiet and peaceful. The beds are super comfy and towels are changed frequently.At night,there is a small area, lit by candles, where you can take your drinks and watch the stars.We only spent a week which wasn`t long enough.Thank you Popi for all your many kindnesses.It made our time in Elounda extra special.

A very special place.

The apartments are neat and clean, light and airy, with air conditioning and a nice kitchen. The ladies who own the apartments are very friendly and kind. When we had to leave two days early because of a family emergency, they were kind enough to charge us half the price. They also gave us some traditional raki and olive oil when leaving. Would definitely go back! Ms Sophia and Ms Popi, thank you so much!

Highly recommended 

Had a lovely 9 day stay here.
Communication prior to arrival was good from the owner Poppy and her Daughter.
Welcomed on arrival and shown a parking spot for the apartment.
Very close to the beach, restaurants and main square, but yet very quiet at night time.
The rooms are beautifully done with some homely touches. Beds are comfortable.
Kitchen is well stocked, including a filter coffee machine, toasties maker.
Cleaned virtually daily with clean towels every other day and sheets 3 times a week I think.
Bathroom is modern altho the shower area is small, but that tends to be the case in most places.
Poppy and Sophie are always around if needed and want to make sure you are happy and enjoying everything. Poppy bakes and leaves lovely gifts in your room, orange cake etc.
Olive oil and raki when you leave also.
We used the courtesy room and that is also very comfy, large shower room too.
Air con is quiet and effective and included in the price.
Highly recommend!
