Athena was the perfect host. The apartment was beautiful and upon arrival she was there to meet us with plenty of information on everything that was worth seeing in Crete, the best beaches, plus lots of useful information on the good bars and restaurants to go to. She had also prepared some fresh Dakos and biscuits for us which was very much appreciated after many hours of travelling. The apartment is very well kept, very clean and spacious. The garden was lovely and spacious. After the initial information upon arrival, Athena let us get on with our holiday but was always on hand and checked in with messages to see if we were ok and needed anything. She left us a gift of some of her homegrown vegetables one day which were delicious. She was even kind enough to let us check out later than usual as we had a late flight home.
