We really enjoyed our holiday, the villa was clean and comfortable with great views down to the sea. The location worked really well for us as we could walk to the beach, restaurants and shops in 15 minutes, but also enjoy the quieter location of the villa and the private pool. We hired a car for the whole stay, but would not say it is essential if you do not want to travel too much around the island and don’t mind a 15 minute up hill walk from the main resort to the villa. There is also a good bus service from the main resort to Chania which only costs €3.60 return per person. Chania is definitely worth visiting, it has a beautiful old town with a harbour and quant lanes full of shops and tavernas
Stamatis was a great host, nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend.
