Our stay at Marianna's Seaside Bungalow was great.
The bungalow is immaculate with excellent facilities.
The garden, full of cacti, is really nice.
And the two seating areas, one at the front and one the side were pleasant places to while away the time.
There are a couple of good local tavernas and Ag Nik is about a 15 minute walk.
Locally, our favourite was Kri Kri (right out of the bungalow, right onto the road and it's about 300 yards on the right). And our favourite in Ag Nik was Avli on a back street between the Lake and the waterfront.
We had a lovely week visiting the two plateaus, Minoan ruins, local beaches and Sitia (with a special mention for Mochlos - wonderful).
