We stayed at Aegean View for a week and had a really nice time with the four of us (49, 45, 16 & 15). Right (sight) at the beach. Nice beachbars. Steady 30C, but with a nice/strong, cooling wind. Shoppingstreet nearby. The loft has a cool atmosphere as well in- as outside and is very well equiped, also with practical stuf to use, like salt & pepper, bitter, coffee etc. Not to mention the lot of fruit in the fridge and raki in the freezer. The Greek hospitallity is excellent. We had a rental car, but actually didn’t really need it for this location. Busstops for Heraklion and Knossos are around the corner and Emannouel is one app away to advise you about the best whays to get somewhere.
We would definitly rent this loft again if we ever go back to Crete, esspecially since we heard they are about to change the beds, which were a bit short for North-European standards.
