Stavros is a lovely small place with a long beach for walking and another beach close to the mountain for swimming, as well 2 great tavernas.
When it comes to the property, we had bigger expectations for the comfort of this apartment. We thought we had booked an apartment with a view to the sea due to the opening picture of the listing. I actually find the listing quiet misleading. We ended up without a sea view and were not able to use the garden when we wanted, since there were other guests in the apartment with the view using the facilities, and we would feel like sitting in their backyard really.
The place has no AC which can a problem on the warmer nights. We had to sleep with all the windows open; however, there were not mosquito nets and my boyfriend ended up bitten quite badly.
Another thing - the bed was extremely hard and not comfortable to sleep on.
For 2 days we were there we were not able to connect to wifi.
The host was friendly and communicating well. I just think this place is not a good value for the money.
We were renting lots of different properties in Crete over the years, and got much better standard for lower price.
