We had 3 great days in Chania with Mrs. Artemis and Mr. Markakis apartment as base. Easy and prompt communication before and during our stay. They where at the apartment greeting us on a late midnight arrival and were so kind and thoughtful to serve us pizza and cold drinks - just what we and the kids needed after a long flight. Further our hostess had also provided some basic necessities like coffee, fruit, bread, butter, honey, bread etc. for the next morning. The apartment is modern and a good size for a family of 4 or 5 with aircon and TV in all rooms, a spacious bathroom with tub and a nice balcony with mountain view. It is situated just 10-15 min. walk from the city center which is an advantage if you come with a rented car as you can park for free just outside the apartment. Its just 50-100 meter from the beach (towels for the beach where also included) and some nice restaurants on the board walk. The is a small grocery store just across the road and some larger supermarkets with 5-10 min. walks. It a very quiet neighborhood with mainly locals and a few tourists. We give our best recommendations to Artemis and Markakis and fully recommend the apartment is you seek something just outside city center, close to the beach and with all modern comfort in the apartment plus some friendly and hospitable hosts.
