Greek hospitality at its best.
The hosts made sure that I am comfortable and have everything I need. Small treats from Maria only add to a positive experience. The apartment is fully equipped and it's very clean and looked after. Maria's guide book is packed with a great recommendations of restaurants and places to visit, which makes it so much easier for us visiting the island.
The only negative side to mention here and this is not a criticism towards the hosts is the location. The apartment is located right next to the busy road so it is impossible to escape from the traffic noise. Also, if you can, rent a car and go around the island there are much better beaches in Crete than Kalamaki.
