Where to stay / Ifigenia Apartments?

« on: March 11, 2006, 07:51:36 PM »

Thanks to everyone who replied with helpful ideas & suggestions.

I've booked an apartment in Mirthios... "Chrisanthi" - so we are sorted out with a fantastic view of Plakias - and a dark & dangerous scramble down the hill to go out for dinner at night... he he...
Don't care 'though - my holiday is booked and I can't wait....

Where to stay / Ifigenia Apartments?

welcome to the forum!

i've not stayed at either i think, where abouts are they? (question to the forum members, not you mum!)

Thanks! It's a great forum and site - I love it!

The Ifigenia apartments are on the road between Plakias & Damnon (Plakias beach about 700mtrs & Damnoni 500mtrs)... the Fedra Apts are about 400mtrs from the (naturist) end of Plakias beach on the road out of town towards Mirthios I think...

To be honest, unless someone on the forum has outstanding rave reviews of Ifigenia, I think I won't take the risk!  
It would be upsetting to turn up to your hard-earned holiday accomodation and find the apartment is dirty and the owner gruff and unfriendly...especially when there are so many other choices of accomodation around.... maybe I'll just choose somewhere else!  
We stayed in Plakias for 2 weeks in May 2001 and loved it - but also fell in love with Mirthios... so I might try that village instread.

Where to stay / Ifigenia Apartments?

We're a family of 2 adults and 2 kids (10 & 8yrs), planning to spend two weeks in Crete one of which will be a week in Plakias / Mirthios, first week of Jun06.

I am looking at Ifigenia Apartments or Fedra Apartments as possibilities.  Both (I think...) have 2 bed apts available.

But although I have seen a couple of positive / mellow comments about Ifigenia on this forum - they are dated a couple of years back.

Has anyone got positive comments from a visit/stay last Summer?
I found a bad report about Ifigenia on this site:

This guy toured around Crete last August and was really unhappy with the apartments and the owner...
Can anyone add any positive (or negative) comments to supplement this?
Thanks if you can help me out!
