A wonderful find: Stavros’s place has plenty of charm and small touches, and large enough to host 2-3 adults (plus 2 kids) comfortably, with welcome amenities such as the kitchen, shower, and washing machine. The enclosed courtyard is perfect for a quiet coffee and pastry in the morning (you’re conveniently close to the best bakery in Xania) or for drying clothes. If you’re into architecture at all you’ll admire the way the Venetian archways and walls have been incorporated into the overall aesthetic.
