For starters, this was our best vacation ever! And that was the result not only of weather and location (Crete), but to a higher extent to this place and its wonderful host. I can hardly fully describe our satisfaction of that but rest assured you would havea fantastic time.
The house is located on the top of a hill and the view is astounding. The premises are very thoughtfully designed and from virtually any spot in the apartment you can enjoy that view. The place is cosy and has everything you'd need for a great stay. The pictures on the site (although professional) only tell half the story, it's actually even better in person. Enjoying the sunset on the balcony or from the bedroom, or the Chania city lights from the couch at night is as relaxing and enjoyable as it gets.
We were welcomed by a nice selection of seasonal fruits as well as local wine, raki and olive oil. Also water and refreshment were thoughtfully put in the fridge.
I personally loved the interior design of te apartment with its simple and clear lines. Also there are a lot of lights to create a warm nad cosy atmosphere at night.
And then there's the host - Giogos is the most charming man, always smiling and willing to help. He gave us recommendations for local taverns, stores, and cafes. (There's a tavern very close by which has a roof garden, welcoming staff and great food). Giorgos fixed us a nice dinner with local dishes one of the evenings and that easily was the best night we spent there. We listened to local music and have good laughs.
You would be better off with a car - the the place is not far from the beach (a 10-15 minutes walk, great beach), but you'd want to go to other places too like the famous Falassarna, Balos or even Elafonisi.
Don't miss out on this place. An absolute 5-star for us. It's great for couples or families with one child.
