Great big place with a wonderful courtyard, perfect for families with kids as it has everything you could possibly need : big very well equiped kitchen, sunbeds, table with chairs, lounge areas, barbecue facilities, wifi, smart tv and Netflix :). The beach (large, sandy, quiet, but also with a small organised area with sunbeds and a beach bar) is very close, practically almost at your feet as you exit the gate (just down the road). Very close also to Zorba's beach and taverns (5-10 min of walking, the two beaches of Stavros are separated only by a rocky clif formation) where you can find a more animated vibe. For exploring the island and surroundings is better to rent a car. Don' t miss the monasteries of Akrotiri peninsula. Chania Town is just around 10 km away. The hospitality of the host was amazing. He waited for us with delicious homemade food as we arrived from the airport around 9 pm and again when he came to bring us fresh towels and bed sheets. And the fridge was also full with food as we arrived. It was a great experience as we travelled with a 6 months old baby and were a little nervous about what we would find and if it would be ok for the baby.
