Das Hotel allgemein
“Pennystella” is a family-run complex of apartments and studios located on the beautiful island of Crete. Set on a cliff overlooking the cosmopolitan bay of Agia Pelagia, Pennystella Apartments can provide you a relaxing time away from all worries. Back in 1988 the first complex of Pennystella Apartments was created by Nicolas and Angela on this beautiful hilltop providing a breathtaking view of Agia Pelagia Cove. By 2003 there were 16 apartments and studios up the hill and 3 more in the heart of the village. The main facilities consist of two accommodation types, 10 apartments renovated in 2018 and 6 studios completed in 2013. All our rooms provide our guests with a fully equipped kitchenette with all the necessities, new comfortable mattresses, a private terrace or balcony with a beautiful sea view. Additionally, all the rooms have easy access to a swimming pool with pleasant cool waters and our traditional family tavern where Angela provides all her guests with freshly cooked meals and Nikolas oversees the drinks and the Barbeque nights!
