Our stay in Alexandra’s apartment was lovely. It was better than we expected, a beautifully styled space with everything we needed and spotlessly clean. They had provided beach towels in a beach bag (unexpected and we used them all week as we had tried to save weight in our bags by not packing these) and milk, coffee, orange juice and breakfast bits as well.
Alexandra gave us a map on arrival and suggested the best beaches in Crete and how to get to Samaria Gorge walk as well as good restaurants and even sunset time so we could find a spot to enjoy it.
The location was as described, a 2 min walk to the beach, great little shop at the end of the road which sold everything and were very friendly and the bus stop into Chania was just round the corner.
I would highly recommend the apartment to anyone visiting Crete, it was a little outside the hustle and bustle of Chania but within very easy reach and both Alexandra plus all those in the local shops, restaurants and bars were extremely helpful and friendly. We would definitely go back again and didn’t want to leave.
