We stayed at the Alexis's apartment this September (4th-11th). It is very nice place in quiet village named Kalathas. The sea is very close to the flat, it is more comfortable to get there by car (about 3 minutes), but it is possible to go by foot (approx. 15 minutes). I would highly recommend to rent a car, because it's hard to travel on Crete without it.

Alexis is a very nice host, he was always in touch if we needed him. There were only two things that we didn't like: mosquitoes and sand.

Sure, there is nothing can be done with the first problem, but it would be great if there was a mop or something to clean the floor (we brang a lot of sand from the beach etc.)

But it wasn't a big problem for us. Once again, Alexis's apartment is very good place for staying in Crete.
