Very nice and comfortable apartment.
We got everything we needed for comfortable staying.
Cookware, dinnerware, fridge with some fruits from landlord, air conditioning, washing machine, etc...
Comparing the apartment with room in the hotel, the aprtment is twice bigger, but costs cheaper. The only drawback that you have to keep it clean by yourself, there is no housekeeping like in the hotel.
The apartment hotel is also very excellent. There are many small supermarkets around just in a few steps, where possible to buy some little things.
We accessed the sea trough the Rock Bar, which is across the road from the apartment.
There is probably the best beach in Makry-Gialos with the nice sand and without stones.
It's not very deep, so that it safe for kids to swim.
And one more thing I need to warn about... Do not forget to close anti mosquitoes net. The mosquitoes at Crete are very evil ! :)
