Our stay at chania was awesome.
A few weeks before our holiday lena sent us some mails with a selfmade dictionary and some information about Greek food.
As we arrived lena had a present for us, also a bottle of wine and one of the cretan version of Rakí. Very tasty.
At the first day lena gave us a lot of brilliant hints (one of the best was for small coffee shops without tourists) and went with us to the old harbour with her car to show us some nice locations, the way to the city, where we can park our car for free and a lot more. In the evening we drank a coffee together at the harbour and talked about chania and Crete. It was a beautiful first evening in chania. The other days we made our trips around the island and combined them with some hints of lena, for example a beach which is not too crowded ( our trip was end of August, so there are a lot of people on the island). We don’t regret it. For my birthday lena made me some homemade chocolate cream, which was so cute of her.
I think this was the experience which you want to make if you book at Airbnb. Not the standard program and hints for tourists but the hints from locals for a unique stay. Where do the locals eat, which beaches do they prefer and so on.
It was a great experience for us and we won’t forget this stay at lena’s beautiful home.
Thank you Lena!! Kisses and hugs Ella and Lukas
