We had a very good 2.5 weeks at Michalis' apartment Elea near the sea. The apartment was convenient for the five of us with 2 bathrooms and 2 bedrooms with airco and a large balcony where we enjoyed the relatively quiet evenings. It was an easy 5-10 minutes walk to one of the beautiful beaches (with "white sand") and to the bus stop to the beautiful and lively city of Chania. Our children (4, 5, 7 years of age) loved the relatively large swimming pools (with many toys left behind by guests) and the various cats and kittens at Michalis' place which they gave Dutch names such as piraatje (little pirate), clowntje (little clown) en moederpoes streepje (mother cat stripes)
