The house was even better than shown on the photos and was as perfectly located as it could by the quiet and unspoilt beach. The sunsets were fantastic and we could highly recommend sitting at the beachside taverna opposite the house to view them and sampling their amazing cuisine. The hosts, Eleni and George, were so kind and friendly arranging a lift from the airport (20 mins away ) and providing us with bread, fruit and refreshments and lots of information about where the supermarkets were and the bus times (approx 2 hrly and very punctual ( approx 2.30 euros for a trip to Chania 30 mins along the coast. we had Elenis phone number for any problems or questions and we might have.)
Stavros had several restaurants to eat at. Zorbas provided great traditional Greek food at very reasonable prices (an enourmous 3 course meal was approximately 10 euros)
The lagoon has lovely clean sand and clear water which was perfect for families although it was a lot more crowded than the beach opposite the house.It is approx 5 mins walk from the house.
At the end of our stay Eleni and George provided a feast of home grown salad , Greek bread and cheese with a glass of wine to see us on our way before dropping us off at the airport. We could not have wished for nicer hosts and we will definately going back again as a week whizzed by too quickly.
