The apartment is situated a couple of hundred meters from the sea, the shops and hotels. A dusty (unnamed) road leads to the apartment. We had the apartment on the first floor. It is spacey with a large living/kitchen room. The kitchen is well-equiped and if you need extra gear you can ask Stella and she will provide. By the way, when we arrived there was bottled water and fresh fruit in the fridge, there were buttercups and jelly and toast and cookies, also raki, local wine and cretan olive oil to use. The badroom is small and basic (a small sit-bath with curtain, a toilet and a small washbowl) Two bedrooms, one master bedroom (1 bed) and a bedroom with two separate beds. There is airconditioning in every room.
The view is spectacular. You can see the sea which is in the west, and the sun drops straight into it, giving you a beautifull show of sunsets every night. There is a nice balcony all around the appartment, with a comfortable place to sit out of the wind.
The shared pool, is great when you come home from a sometimes windy beach; here you can relax and be out of the wind and in the sun.
The beach and shops/restaurants are within a couple of hundred meters walk.
To really enjoy the villages and other beaches in the neighbourhood it is recommended to have transportation.
Stella and Polidoros are great hosts and lovely people. The welcomed us very hearty and were always prepared to give us guidance, tips of were to go on hikes or secluded beaches and a helpfull hand. There was a minor issue with the warm-water supply and Polidoros came to fix it immediately on his sunday off. If you want Stella can come and clean the apartment for you. Extra towels are provided whenever you want.
