Fantastic location, apartment and host- thoroughly recommend! This was our first time using Airbnb and we had a great experience.
We stayed for two weeks and the apartment is exactly as described; 5 mins walk to the beach which has a lifeguard and snack bars, 1 mins walk to the local shops, restaurants and bus stops and just 5 mins drive to the main road (New Road) running East to West in the north of Crete. We hired a car to explore Crete and parking wasn't a problem. The apartment is clean, comfortable and quiet.
Throughout our stay, our host Christine and her family made us feel welcome and were nearby if we needed anything.
Leaving, we felt like we were saying goodbye to family.
We hope to return soon!
