We decided to stay at the astrostudio as our first island stop out of a few locations on our anniversary trip in Greece.
Our host Vicki was lovely to communicate with and the location of the apartment is stunning.
The apartment is located on a quiet mountain road in Georgioupoli situated roughly inbetween Chania and Heraklion but closer to the former (roughly 45 mins to Chania, 1h30 to Heraklion)
We travelled all around while we there (Chania, Heraklion, Rethymno, Elafonisi) and were so happy we decided to stay in the quiet paradise of Georgioupoli however I would strongly recomend renting a car otherwise you will have difficulty!
The apartment itself is fairly basic but well kept and well maintained, the bathroom was admittedly much smaller than expected but it was not an issue, the overuling aspect was the balcony and the breathtaling views of the mountain meeting the sea which we enjoyed every evening and morning and made the booking totally worth it.
Vicki and Manolis were wonderful hosts frequently checking in to see if we needed anything and providing us helpful information, we were greeted with balloons, sweets and a wedding anniversary card which we will cherish forever and will always make it a memorable experience - we even had Vicki's homemade greek bean stew for dinner one night which was delicous!!

If you are unsure on where to stay then please look no further - book the astrostudio apartment, rent a car and explore the beautiful island of Crete.. you will not regret it!
Efcharistó Vicki and Manolis 🙌👏
