We had a wonderful stay at The House on the Bay. There is nothing like waking up to the sound of the sea and also going to sleep with the same. Our daughters loved the fact that they could get down to the sea from a little gate and some steps and straight into the water - beach shoes are a good idea because of the rocks. The House is lovely and light. One thing to be aware of is that there is no washing machine so you will have to hand wash if you are there for a few days.
We had an incident at the house, my daughter got her fingers slammed in the front door (don't have both doors open at once when it is windy!) but luckily for us George happened to be there and rushed us to hospital and stayed with us to help interpret - he was so helpful with this and with everything. His aunt lives upstairs but it doesn't cause any problems as you hardly know she is there - she did bake us a lovely cake! George's Mother was there to greet us when we arrived and she is really lovely too.
We had a bit of trouble finding the right house so be aware that if you are coming from Chania, drive through Kalamaki and there is a pharmacy on the right, a shop K.AND then some houses, the parking space is like a carport just before the sea view! Then you can access the property from a gate there down some steps. Or if you go back slightly there are two dark grey gates which you can walk in down some steps. It is the last house before you see the sea on your right heading away from Chania towards Kissamous.
I would thoroughly recommend a stay here. We shall be visiting again!!
