This appartment was a great location of us.We received a very warm welcome from Tonia and Spiros who showed us around My Blue and explained all parts of the appartment,and gave us great local top tips for visits and food locations.
My Blue was spotless and clean. Tonia supplied lovely quality towels and 4 beach towels,it felt like home from home, very well equiped kitchen ...even included a toasted sandwich maker !We have never stayed in a place were so much consideration and thoughfulness has gone into , to offer such a comfortable stay.......Tonia had left the use of hair shampoos,conditioners,Shower gel.products for washing machine,cleaning products.Beach mats -Umberalla with beach bag.Even the ice cubes were made up in the freezer !
We loved our welcome gift of local Cretan red wine and fruit.THANK YOU
The shared sun terrace at the top of the appartment was amazing,the panoramic views of the coast and the evening sunsets were wonderful.We did make the most of the outside fridge on the terrace ! but it was just too warm to fire up the gas BBQ and Pizza oven during our stay.A fabulous space to relax in .Beautiful potted plants and clever dinning table cacti. The kids loved the day bed !
Our teenage sons assured us the wi-fi workd well ! as did the air conditioning units and ceiling fans,there was mosquito nets in place over windows and terrace door.
The location of My blue is great- 3 min walk to supermarkets,7 min walk to many taverna's for great eating ! 10-15 min walk to beach.Local bus into Chania Old town...bus stops 5 min easy walk away (1.50 euros each way).We used the beautiful bakery close to the appartment for bread,amazing cakes,home made icecream and hot drinks.
In Daratsos there are loads of car hire places to really explore the amazing coast line and wonderful coastal villages.Car hire for 1 day was approx 55-60 Euros.(We paid 40 Euros from Chania airport in taxi to My Blue) On our last day with an evening flight we took car hire,explored, and left the car at the airport for collection.It was so easy.
Very kindly (with our late evening departure flight) Tonai and Spiros allowed us to stay longer at My Blue,which calmly helped us to enjoy our last day in Western Crete.
We would highly recommend My Blue.Tonia and Spiros were wonderful hosts and a great appartment.
