Ioannis was very welcoming and the place was very comfortable with plenty of space- comfortable beds and everything you needed. The kitchen is a bit basic but does have what you need. The balcony is large with comfortable outdoor furniture and you can look out to sea whilst overlooking the pool for breakfast. The pool is very clean and large - it could do with some umbrellas although there is some shade from the trees. It was very nice to have some basics provided including ouzo when we arrived. It is 200m from the beach- you do have to cross the busy road first. There is a choice of bars with sunbeds and the beach is lovely-sandy with clear warm water. We went to the right to the Blue Sea which was very welcoming and had good food at a good price. Chania town is 15 mins away by car or bus and is a really pretty and charming Venetian town which we visited a lot. There are plenty of different boat trips you can take from there to visit different places. Well worth going to Elafonisi which is a stunning tropical beach but go early if you don't like crowds. Ioannis will help you with information on anything though and will give you all the less touristy places to visit. We also went to the Botanical gardens in the mountains- breathtaking views-worth doing for 6 euros.
