The view from the spectacular terrace of this charming, old world apartment really is “astonishing”. My partner and I spent more time hanging out there than we planned because it was so special. There’s a convenient public beach a short 3 minute walk where you can swim. Another excellent bonus about this location is that it’s far enough away from touristy, old Chania, that you avoid the loud night noises and outdoor concerts, yet close enough to walk. Fresh fish, butchered meat, fruit and vegetables are easily purchased from small vendors nearby. The kitchen is equipped with all necessities needed to cook. The apartment was very clean, comfortable bed, AC, fresh sheets, towels and lovely soaps. Additionally we felt very safe in this “real” Crete neighborhood.
