We had a wonderful 8-day stay with Kostas and Chrisa! The room was very clean, close to the water and affiliated to what we found was the best restaurant in west Crete - The Cellar, located on the edge of the water. The breakfasts were amazing and really started the day off well.
Kissamos is a small village very central to West Crete, a 15 minute drive from Falasarna beach, and maybe 15 km to the fabulous Balos beach (although you need a car with good tires or to take a boat for that one). It's also about a one hour drive to Elafonissi beach, which is also beautiful, as is the road on the way.
The beaches were the best that we've ever seen (even compared to the Caribbean and Indonesia) and the food was incredible. Those two things alone make for a great holiday, but on top of this it was cheap, the people everywhere were super friendly and the hotel hosts were very helpful. We will be back! Thank you again Kostas and Chrisa for an amazing time. Kalimera from Canada!
