Rena’s place was perfect for our family of three. When we arrived she made us feel welcome with a delicious Greek salad and cakes, local honey, alcohol, and her family’s own made olive oil. She was always avail to answer questions. Her place was just around the corner from the grocery store and every morning we had breakfast at table in the back yard under the beautiful lemon tree.
Street parking was really convenient, making it a perfect home base for driving around and exploring Crete. It is just a short walk into town but the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. The apartment is always cool if you remember to close the shutters in the day, and has great air conditioning as well.
Overall we really enjoyed our trip and all of Rena’s suggestions, especially Maracaibo restaurant just outside the city, it’s a can’t miss!
We had an amazing time staying here and I’m sure you will too!
