Very well equipped, clean and modern small apartment that exceeded our expectations. Ideal for a couple but a car is really essential. No problem with the road running in between the apartment and the beach and the traffic is not audible from inside. The beach opposite is not really suitable for children as getting in and out of the sea over the rocky shoreline is tricky. BUT just 150 metres along the beach one can use the really comfortable beach facilities offered by the Santanna Hotel free of charge if you use their service for the occasional coffee or beer etc during the day. Really comfortable but once again the sea and sand there is not suitable for children. Makes it even better for adults!!!
Lerapetra is a nice town and the restaurant Vira Potzi is the best we found in the entire East Crete Region. Don’t miss it! They don’t take reservations but will always find you a table. Go east around 15kms for a super little beach with excellent taverna and swimming at Galini.
