Bedroom
A bohemian space shaded by tamarisks, soft linens, hand-crafted details, the kind of room where mornings stretch.
Tertsa, Crete
Tertsa Beach Apartment
Tertsa — Crete, Greece
A small life, on the wild coast.
Perched above Lambros, one of Tertsa's three tavernas, Tertsa Beach Apartment sits on the south coast of Crete, where the road meets the sea. The village has three tavernas and a small grocery shop directly below the apartment.
Designed for couples who chose the road less travelled, bohemian linens, a quiet balcony, and the catch of the day from across the road. This is not where you go to be seen. It's where you go to disappear.

Tertsa Beach Apartment is built on intimacy between one of the village's three tavernas below, the wild south coast outside, and a balcony where time forgets to move. Every detail hand-picked for those who choose to disappear.
Villa Concept
A balcony where time forgets to move.
Tertsa Beach Apartment is designed for nothing in particular, a single bedroom, a small living space, a balcony that looks straight down onto Lambros, one of the village's three tavernas. The architecture is plain: tamarisk shade, hand-crafted woodwork in the bathroom, the smell of grilled fish below at dinner.
There is no pool. There is no spa. There is the sea, twenty steps across the road, the wild south coast spreading west and east, and the villagers who'll know your name by day two. The kind of place you don't tell your friends about.
Espaces & Pièces
- One double bed in a quiet room shaded by tamarisks, bohemian linens, ensuite bathroom with artisan woodwork, the kind of room where you sleep until you're not tired anymore.
- A bright open space with a couch, dining corner, and a fully-equipped kitchen, though most guests end up eating at Lambros downstairs instead.
- Newly renovated, with our own handmade chestnut-wood bathroom furniture, the most-photographed detail of the apartment.
- A spacious balcony shaded by tamarisks, looking down at Lambros taverna and out to the wild south coast, designed for breakfast, raki, and watching the village live its slow life.

What our guests say
Annali has been great host from the start of the reservation, which was done some months prior to arrival. the place was very cute and we were personally greeted by the host but also the local family running the taverna downstairs. we ended up there for dinner few times for the great food served there. the apartment was literally in front of the sea so we enjoyed the evening sunset. thr beach is a bit rocky but there are great options around, and we suggest the have a car when reaching the apartment but also explore the area. thank you annali to be a great host, looking forward to see your other locations next time in Crete
Appartement was lovely. Nice place to sit outside. AC worked great. The beach is just a stone's throw away. The beach itself is very nice and not too crowded. Appartement is above the kitchen of the tavern, but did not cause any noise complaints. People of the tavern across were great and very helpful. Food there is also nice. At the beach you can use their beds for free. We did not rent a car, which is fine if you go for half a weekish. There is not a lot to do in Tertsa besides relaxing. (But that was exactly what we came for). All in all Tertsa is a hidden gem, would definitely recommend to go here if you’re looking for a peaceful get away.
We loved our stay! The apartment is located just on top of the Taverna and about 15 meters from the beach. Within 5 minutes walk there is also a yoga location offering amazing drop in classes. From the moment we drove into the town we were warmly greeted by the lambros family. We spent the next 5 days at the beach and taverna relaxing. It was a great experience and we truly felt part of the local community for the short period we stayed. I highly recommend it if you want to relax and do less rather than more! The apartment is spacious and provides all you need for your stay, including a washing machine. The bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of space to chill.
Wir waren eine Woche in Tertsa und kommen sicher wieder! Das Apartment ist genau wie auf den Bilder und reicht für zwei Personen völlig aus. Direkter Standzugang und sicherlich noch ein Geheimtipp wenn man große Menschenmengen vermeiden möchte. Ein Besuch in Mirtos ist empfehlenswert. Außerdem hat man viele Möglichkeiten das Auto abzustellen. Der Minimarket hat alles was man für den täglichen Bedarf braucht. Annali und ihr Mann waren sehr aufmerksam und immer gut erreichbar. Wir sehen uns wieder :)
