Great space run by a really sweet and generous guy. It's located about twenty to thirty minutes outside the city of Heraklion. Beautiful environs; spacious and well-lit space; comfortable bed; fast wifi; and it is in fact between two beaches. There are restaurants and little shops nearby (but yes they are expensive). Probably best to rent a car or scooter, unless you just wanna hang around the beach and apartment, but there is a bus stop right by the apartment as well.
Dimitri was very reliable and on-point. He picked me up from the airport and even gave me my first tango lesson! He and his fiancé were hospitable, responsible, and very thoughtful. I really couldn't have asked for a better time in Crete.
