My girlfriend and I stayed in the Ostria Studio for a week, hosted by the fantastic George and Maria who catered to any needs we had throughout our stay! An absolutely ideal place to stay if you're looking for somewhere quiet, near the beach, but not too out of the way. George was happy to give us lifts, show us around and give us advice on the best ways to enjoy Crete, he even drove us to and from the airport! The Studio is in an extremely tranquil location, I spent lots of time sitting outside reading amongst the cats and beautiful flowers. We were also given wonderful Raki and had the privilege of sharing it with our hosts under the mesmerising Cretan landscape. One of the highlights of the trip was facing George at Ping-Pong (despite him winning by a lot!), whilst another was being able to hire a Moped to see Crete with, which couldn't have happened without George and Maria finding us one within our budget! The location is excellent for public transport services, the bus stop being 5 minutes away from the studio which was a lifesaver on our 7am journey back from a night out in Malia! By the end of the holiday, we truly felt like we were leaving our second home and were already in discussion of our return! My girlfriend and I cannot put into words our mutual happiness and gratitude for the time we we spent in Ostria studio and we would highly recommend to any couples, especially if on a budget!
