Everything about our stay in this apartment was superb--all our communications beforehand were great, check-in was easy, and the apartment was sparkling clean and gorgeous.
My mom and I stayed here 3 weeks at the end of the tourist season in Crete and after many day trips throughout the island we determined that this is absolutely the best apartment complex ... in the best part of town ...in the best town in Crete.
The apartment looks out over a promenade along the ocean, complete with a small local beach steps from the door--perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring. We loved waking up to the sound of the waves every morning and a 15 minute stroll along the promenade and old harbor brought us past various restaurants and to the old town of Chania, which is a wonderful place to explore.
We loved the wrap-around patio overlooking the ocean and all of the windows in the space overlooking the town, ocean and ancient fortifications. The apartment is fully stocked with all amenities and the complex has an elevator, both of which we appreciated!
At check in, Athanasia greeted us warmly and with all sorts of delicious treats--local tea, honey, wine and raki--and also provided periodic housekeeping services during our stay (which included refilling all toiletries and the raki!) She provided us with contact information and the best beaches and restaurants to go to, and provided more helpful hints during our stay. Athanasia and Michalis were both very helpful throughout, even giving us emergency advice when our rental car got a flat tire.
We had such a wonderful time here and hope to return someday soon. This is a wonderful base to explore Chania and Crete from! We were very sad to leave our new Cretan "home"!
