Manos Apartments

Just returned from a week at these apartments with my family. We had two rooms one was a two bedroom which was really spacious with two balconies and a lovely big kitchen the other was a one bedroom which was more than adequate with a huge balcony. They were lovely and clean and had all the facilities which you would expect from a Greek self catering apartment. What makes these apartments special are the wonderful staff all more than happy to help and look after you. Soula and Maria in the daytime and a special mention must go out to Hercules the evening barman who went out of his way to make sure we had a fabulous holiday. If you are looking for a traditional Greek family run apartment in a fab location then look no further ❤️❤️

We have been all over Greece, some places more than once - and Manos are of a very good standard. The location is spot on, away from any noise, but close enough to stroll to the beach or bars and restaurants. The room tax is very low - 3.50 Euros for the week, in comparison to what we have paid before. They are spotlessly clean inside and out, and the grounds towards the back are pretty olive groves. We couldn't fault anything ; we had 2 balconies with sea views and a terrace at the back with a table and 4 chairs with mountain views. The staff at the apartments are really helpful and friendly, especially the lovely Hercules - he is a real gent, and very popular in the village - all the locals know and love him. He carried my suitcase up to the room when we arrived and gave us any info and advice we needed throughout our holiday. When we go to Greece we tend not to sit around the pool, but prefer to mix with local people, we have made lots of friends over the years and TBH had a ball. Elounda has to be one of, if not THE friendliest village we have ever stayed in. We last holidayed there in 2011 and we have just met up again with waiters, barmen and maitre-d's from last time, which is really heartwarming in this day and age . . . Everywhere you go for a drink or meal, you end up with lots of freebies, not to mention the Raki !!! If you want to stay in a clean, bright, friendly complex - with a plug socket next to a mirror - in a gorgeous, historic, little-port-town come here. Stay around the pool for a couple of days if you like, but make sure you mix with the people, they are great fun and love to share a drink and chat. I really don't know how some reviewers find anything negative to say about the Manos, it has all you need and more. Lift your head up from your phone or whatever device you are on and take it all in ! Obvoiusly we avoid the school holidays, our son is 34 and married so we can. We will be back ! Loved it, loved it !!

We have just returned from a 1 week stay. We had a lovely apartment at the back of the complex and having arrived at 2am we were really grateful for the bottle of cold water in the fridge. The apartment was lovely and clean with beautiful views and our bedding and towels were changed every other day. The apartment had an airer with pegs provided, tea towel for drying up pots and crockery, a hair dryer is provided and on request from the staff you can also get an iron. The staff are wonderful! They do work really hard (and long hours) to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The pool area is kept lovely and clean and the variety of food served at the bar by Maria and Soula is great, we highly recommend the Bacon Rolls! It is quiet in the evening at the bar, but is a great stop off after an evening out for a drink before you head back up to your apartment. All in all a great stay. Thank you Larraine and all of the team at Manos.
