This is a great house in a more residential area, away from the crowds and resorts. It can easily fit a large group or several families and accommodated our group of 13 perfectly. The hosts were friendly and provided us great suggestions for the area. There is a nice pool which is kept clean and has a comfortable outdoor sitting area to relax. If there was one drawback, it was that the house was a little under supplied (no shower soap, very little toilet paper, few pool toys, etc.). But the cleanliness and overall space of the house made up for it. We loved the area as it was so close to the lake and great beaches, a short drive into Chania or Rethynmo and we even got the whole gang to go to Balos Beach! A must if you are looking for one of the World's top beaches. A great stay and love to come back one day!
