Even more beautiful and better location than the posting makes it out to be! The view from the balcony is absolutely gorgeous and there is a small sand beach right in front of the place that we didn't know about beforehand. Very simple and enjoyable walk along the water to get to Old Town (~ 1/2 mile), but also really nice, hip restaurants right next store as well! Athanasia was so welcoming - upon arrival, we were greeted with a bottle of wine, local alcohol, a beautiful gift of local tea, and drinks in the fridge/coffee in the pantry! If we come back to Crete (which we certainly hope to), we'd definitely stay here again!
