The description of the house and the reviews are accurate— Theodoros is a great host (very helpful, prompt, and friendly). We were a group of four and had plenty of room. The house has three terraces in total, so one can enjoy the morning and afternoon sun. On our firs day we wanted to walk to the beach but figured it was too far for us; but by car it is only a 5 minute drive to either one of the two beaches close by— the one with the little island is more crowded, but the other one in Tarsanas is like a little cove, so we enjoyed that one more. Seitan Limani is about 20-30 minues by car. The roads are good. There is parking in front of the house and two stores close by where one can find plenty of supplies. We bought seasonal fruits, vegetables, and fresh eggs from people selling in their yards (on the side of the road) and the produce is delicious. We tried Irenes Tavern on our first day there but were not impressed with the food— if you are looking for a good coffee place, the best one we’ve found was Monogram, in Chania. The best ice cream place, Delizia, and the best restaurant we’ve eaten at, Faka— both in Chania. By car it is a 20-30 minute ride to Chania, and you can park in any municipal parking. The airport is about 15 minutes from this property.
The house is fully furnished and had everything we needed, from trash bags to mosquito repellent. It is not as modernly furnished as other properties, but is is very spacious, clean and well-kept, with a nice view to the sea. It is located on a corner, but cars are generally not a problem— it was quiet during the night and even during the day. The AC works very well.
I personally felt as if I was at a relative’s house, and we all enjoyed our stay and would consider renting this property again on a future trip.
Thank you, Theodoros.
