Aristea's house is absolutely wonderful! Beautiful, sunny, peaceful, well equipped, clean, and absolutely the best stay we've had in Crete. The hosts were wonderful people, very charismatic, responsive and comprehensive. They also have two of the most loving cats I've ever encountered that welcome you in the morning by the door ; ). Located in Stavros, you need a car to better be able to enjoy the surroundings. But there is a beautiful beach and mountain already at your doorstep too for a nice dip in the morning and evening after the day is gone. There are markets and restaurants nearby too. I highly recommend in case you are looking for something peaceful and beautiful, outside of the center. Furthermore I really don't measure words to say that this has been the best house I've ever rented on Airbnb!
