The reviews help a lot: guests especially loved the cosy atmosphere, evenings in the hot tub and your thoughtful hospitality. I’d bring those feelings into the description:

Slow mornings, salty hair and a warm soak to end the day. Welcome to Ninemia Shore Retreat, your cosy little corner of Stalis, just steps from the sea.

Start your morning with coffee on the covered terrace, take a short stroll to the beach for a swim, and let the day unfold at your own pace. Fancy exploring? Seafront restaurants, cafés and shops are close by. Staying in? The hanging chair and hot tub might persuade you to leave your plans for tomorrow.

Inside, natural wood, woven lamps, soft colours and touches of greenery create a warm, relaxed space that feels easy to settle into. Kick off your sandals, curl up on the sofa or prepare something delicious in the well-equipped kitchenette. There’s a dining table for leisurely breakfasts, a television for cosy evenings and air conditioning for those sunny Cretan days.

When it’s time to rest, a comfortable queen-size bed with fresh linens awaits. The sleeping nook sits behind a decorative wooden partition, giving it an intimate feel within the apartment’s open-plan layout. It remains connected to the living area rather than being a separate, enclosed bedroom. The bathroom offers a refreshing shower, fresh towels and warm, natural finishes.

Outside, the terrace is a favourite with our guests—and it’s easy to see why. Enjoy breakfast in the fresh air, settle into the hanging chair with a book, or slip into the bubbling hot tub after a day of swimming and exploring. It’s a lovely place to spend a little extra time together.

You’ll be around a minute’s walk from the beach and approximately five minutes from the centre of Stalis, with plenty of places nearby for a relaxed lunch, an evening cocktail or a taste of Cretan cooking. With the seafront road and local venues close by, you’ll be part of the neighbourhood’s everyday holiday life.

We want you to feel welcome from the moment you arrive. Self check-in is available, and your host, George, is just a message away for local recommendations, help with your stay or a good suggestion for dinner.

Whether you’re celebrating something special or simply taking a well-earned break together, come and make yourself at home. The beach is close, the evenings are yours, and there’s no need to rush.
