The apartment is right by the beach which is perfect! Upon arrival (12:00) we received a warm welcome. We were taken to the bar since we arrived quite early. They had given us a banana/fruit drink while we waited for our room to be ready. We sat down and enjoyed the ocean view. Approximately at 13:00 we went up to our room. We waited a little bit but we still checked in before the official check-in time so that was great. Most mornings we would wake up and eat breakfast (that we got from the supermarket down the street) on our balcony. Really lovely. Afterwards we would walk down and find a bed by the beach. Plenty of beds available that are part of Parthenis Beach Suites and they are all free to use. The pool has several beds. There are enough seats and tables as well to eat lunch or to sit in the shade. The rooms were cleaned every day and we got new towels every day! We had a 4-person room and the beds were quite comfortable. Air conditioning is placed in the main bedroom. So for example when you come back at night from dinner and you turn the air conditioning on..it takes a while for it to get colder in the entire apartment. But not really an issue. Also asked if they could arrange a taxi from the airport. This was possible and a great service. When we arrived at the airport the driver was already standing outside waiting for us. Perfectly on time! (50 euros). Great location if you want to hang by the pool or the beach. Close to restaurant. 1,5 km walk to old Malia
