There is no better place to stay in Chania. If you wish to experience life in Crete, this is the place to do so. Red clay and aromatic greenery, twisting olive groves, outstanding hospitality, a terrace with a view of the white mountains, the sea, and the Aegean sky- this is one of the best listings on airbnb. Skip the touristic offerings in old town — or the resorts west of Chania, stay here and experience western Crete for yourself.
The hosts are fantastic and amenable - with in-depth knowledge of the area, a spotless home, and a lovely family.
While some reviews say that this listing is better with a car, anyone could stay here. With a quick walk to the beach, and only a short bus ride (which the hosts gave an in depth explanation on how to use) to reach the heart of old town, I was happy to explore Crete from here.
A very special thanks for a wonderful experience!
