Apartment

Crete Sissi by the sea


For rent with me, a lovely authentic apartment by the sea, down town and yet quiet.

Still available: June 10 to June 23, 

30 June to 14 July, 

August 7 to August 26.


On the beautiful and sunny island of Crete lies the picturesque village called Sissi north-east of Heraklion.


At the port of Sissi is the Anchor complex with a total of 20 apartments, 18 of which as a 2nd house so very quiet. 50 meters from the sea and bay.

There is a beach at the harbor next to hotel Palm Bay and a 2nd beach Bufos beach at 300 meters walking distance. Sissi offers a wide range of taverns and restaurants by the sea. Swimming pools hotels may be used, when using drinks. 

I am the happy owner since April 2009 of the apartment on the ground floor. It has an area of 36.5 m2, overlooking the beautiful blue sea. It is a side house in a block of four semi-detached houses. 

The small bay of Sissi is already known in the time of the Minoans (4000 years ago).  If you descend via Palm Bay to the small beach in the water, you will find very old and worn steps in the water and about 5 meters from the shore you will feel cold spring water bubbling up along your legs. Countless small fish whirl in and around the oxygen-rich cold freshwater column. If you are lucky, you can see that bright blue kingfishers take advantage of this. If you swim further, the temperature gets much warmer.


PLEASE NOTE: WIFI available.


Direct flights with Transavia from Amsterdam-Heraklion all year round and from April also from Rotterdam to Heraklion. Also through Transavia to book a rental car that is ready at Heraklion airport. 


Modern bathroom with walk-in shower, hanging toilet and fountain with cupboard.

I have been the happy owner since April 2009 of the apartment on the ground floor. My dream has come true with the purchase of this side apartment, a cottage by the sea in Greece.
The bay looks like a large swimming pool because there are no currents, waves, mules and jellyfish, so you can swim very far.
Every year I go here 2 times to enjoy the sun, sea, beach and wonderful trips over beautiful Crete.

Location & area recommendations

Additional information

The smells, the balmy wind, the olives, the sun and the light, the sea, the hospitality, all this makes Crete unforgettable. In Sissi I have an apartment and enjoy it several times a year and when I am not there I rent it out.
There is a Sissi Medical center in Sissi also on Facebook, which is available 24 hours with a very good doctor and service. For those who want to read some personal tips in this Covid time and can make their own decision whether / not to fly to Greece. You are now fully enjoying it and it is also very nice for Greece. First you read carefully, with info from the official sites or from The Greek Guide. Fill in the appropriate form in time that you receive from your airline. Print the confirmation and take it with you. QR code arrives around 11 pm, hours earlier in NL, save this code on your mobile, you will be asked for this at the airport when you check in and also before you enter the Greek airport. A test is taken randomly. At airports you can keep your trolley behind you and in front of you, keep your distance yourself, or you take a cart and take up space, like in the supermarket, or you ask the people behind you for space. You get in per zone, so no pushing, you get out per row and can only stand when the previous row leaves. If you want to have a spacious seat on the plane, take extra legroom, costs 15, - and are often not all in use because of these costs. I had a queue with 1 person. All this at Transavia. The transfer bus was also not full, and with an extremely friendly driver. Okay you have a mouth cap at the airport until your destination is about 8 hours, but you can do something for it. Despite my face mask, I smelled all those wonderful scents in the bus, of herbs and olives. That way you appreciate it all the more when you are there. Good luck with your choice. Sorry, I forgot a very important detail. The air exchange is so high in the plane that you hardly understand the flight attendant and you have to drink every half hour because of a huge dry throat.
In Sissi: Tina Minigolf with particularly nice holes. Lemonade Tours for excursions. Lyrakis olive oil factory, weekly great Greek evening.
Happy Train 3 routes daily. K-tel bus 9.15 am departure to Agios Nicolaos and Heraklion, bus stops along the way. 2 beaches.
Malia: Potamos beach, beautiful with beds and food at Taverne Kalyva.
Hersonisos: Lychnostatis open-air museum by the sea. Aqua parks.
Heraklion: Saturday morning market, very nice with lots of vegetables, fruit and clothes. Crete Aquarium.
Agios Nicolaos: Wednesday morning market with Sissi bus, transfer bus station for Plaka and then Spinalonga.
