My family and I received an amazingly friendly welcome and great hospitality from George from the second we arrived.
The apartment was very clean and well supplied. There are two amazing terrace spaces, one cozy the other very spacious, to choose from to have our breakfast every morning and enjoy the sunshine. It is in a lovely quiet location, away from the busy tourist areas but close enough to get there when we wanted to. There is a supermarket in walking distance, the beach is just a 10-minute walk away and there is a bus stop just a few minutes walk away with a choice of 2 very frequent buses, which in 10 minutes took us into Chania town.
George was on hand to help before we even arrived and was always available by phone or in person throughout our stay. He arranged our taxi pick up from the airport on arrival as well as to the airport on our last day. He greeted us at the apartment, provided us with maps and ensured that we had all the transport information that we needed. He recommended places to eat, the best methods of getting to the main attractions and the best time of day to go. He arranged our car hire, which was delivered to and collected directly from the apartment. We spent 4 days visiting great attractions such as Irini Gorge, Knossos and other beaches to the west of Chania.
We were also very well looked after by George’s parents who supplied us with wine, raki, eggs, cake, biscuits, fruit, olive oil, all either homemade or produced from their own land. They were extremely welcoming, despite us not speaking much Greek or them much English we got along just fine.
I would thoroughly recommend a stay here and we would love to come back again if we ever have the opportunity. George was our best Airbnb host so far. The service we received was perfect.
