We spent eight wonderful days at the Monastery apartments in Moní: The first four days in the 3 room superior apartment and another four days in the Deluxe Suite. The design of the apartments and the whole complex (appr 5 apartments) is very modern and charming. The apartments were equipped as announced and we had wonderful views to the White Mountains from our terraces. Our hosts, George and Marianne, did everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible and were very nice and helpful. It was not even a problem to arrive at 1 o'clock in the night. Normally they are around from 8.30 till 13.00 to help with everything their guests might need. The apartment gets cleaned daily which we did not expect but which is very comfortable indeed. From our two apartments we preferred the former one as you nearly do not recognize the other guests. You should definitely rent a car for your stay at Moní: the next city Sougia with its beach is within five minutes driving distance and there are many wonderful hikes of every difficulty in the area (do not miss Lissos, Polifem Cave and the Agia Irini Gorge...). The famous Samariá Gorge was already closed as we stayed in the area in the end of October and the weather was quite unsteady. If you want to come to Western Crete George's Appartements are the places to be.
