This is an excellent property with a good size kitchen and apartment sized fridge. The owner met us at the residence and showed us around and helped us find a place to park our rental car. There is lots of free street parking available. The laundry room is a little building inside the courtyard which was very convenient. There is an excellent market less than a five minute walk away and it's an easy walk into Heraklion.

We loved the antiquity of the building and the furnishings in the main bedroom with full size antique bed, linen curtains, a smattering of books to read. The patio with it's many beautiful plants, strong lights, table and chairs led for cozy sitting outside. The espresso machine was nice to have use of. Would I come back? Definitely! Thank you, Manis and family. It was a wonderful stay!

I chose this property because it reminded me of a loved one, and it was perfect. Yes, the shower is small, but I would not trade my stay for a bigger shower or luxury hotel. Manos was very nice as well. He was responsive and recommended some great restaurants. I highly recommend.

Un voyage incroyable dans un cocoon de verdure, de calme et de romantisme. Manos a été aux petits soins avec nous : accueil, disponibilité, conseils vraiment génial ! Je recommande cet endroit très fonctionnel et chaleureux niché au cœur d Heraklion sans le bruit de la ville. Une belle parenthèse en amoureux.

We loved Lemon Garden! We stayed in the lemon house, it was bigger than we expected and full of amenities. It had so much charm! The outdoor space under the lemon tree was such a lovely place to enjoy a coffee in the morning. The host, Manos, was very quick to reply to our messages, and was absolutely delightful. We would definitely recommend it.

• The Lemon Garden Residence was a lovely place to land when arriving to Heraklion for the first time. Manos, the owner, went above and beyond and showed the most welcoming hospitality. We were able to text him throughout the duration of our stay, for recommendations, help, etc. (He was kind enough to print our tickets for our bus to Chania - just an example of how hospitable he was!) The hotel itself was lovely. We had a beautiful room. The mini fridge came stocked with cold water and fresh fruit Manos had grown on his Organic farm. The AC worked well, the shower was stocked with Korres products, and it felt plenty spacious for two people. Manos provided a map of the local area, with landmark sights and attractions, and gave us recommendations for restaurants and activities. The garden surrounding the rooms was one of our favorite parts - the plants and lemon trees were beautifully curated and cared for. We felt the listing accurately depicts the rooms, but we wanted to share more photos of the garden because it was too beautiful not to! It was conveniently located - a mere 5 minute walk to desirable attractions, shopping, and restaurants, but the hotel itself was located on a quiet street - it felt like the best of both worlds. • We arrived rather late our first night, but Manos was still happy to meet us, show us our room and the grounds. He recommended a small, local restaurant that was right up the street (turn left when you exit the gate, and it was a favorite.

Nessuno alla reception e cancello di ingresso dalla strada pubblica chiuso e senza campanello o altre istruzioni per il check-in. Ho dovuto telefonare e attendere un responsabile per entrare. Mi è stato chiesto il pagamento della stanza che però era già pagata dalla prenotazione on line. Insomma non è neppure un b§b ma solo una stanza privata senza servizi in loco.
