Our family was visiting Crete in first days of April. Costa and his mother Maria are very nice hosts.
Everything was perfect, location, facilities, rooms.
Our children liked the garden very much, and we enjoyed sea view, warm evenings in balcony, terrace and the wave sound during the night.
Beside of small problems with hot water, and finishing construction works - everything was wonderfull.
This is normal because we were in the beginning of the season especially that Costa offered competitive price for accomodation and informed about these circumstances in time.
Costa was helpfull and very comunicative solving out all missunderstandings.
We felt the true Cretan way of life and this is the main thing.
The location is perfect to explore and drive around Rethymno and Chania region. It is just besides of highway and walking to the oldtown takes 10minutes. There is Lidl near by and small shopping center - live saving.
Since it was beginning of the season the beach was not crowdy, but swimming there is a bit problematic, because of the stones.
For nice walk it is perfect at least in April.
Anyway me and my family decided to come back once again to Mamangakis apartments once again in autumn.
Wish Costa and Maria all the best and continue in the same way.

Just put a bottle of Raki and Retsina on welcome, not to look around:)
