We loved staying at this incredibly charming apartment! The unit is spacious (for 2 of us) and airy with beautiful exposed beam ceilings. We stayed for 2 weeks so having a full kitchen was definitely a bonus. In the evenings, we would enjoy drinks and people watching from the balcony. The balcony looks onto a very small pedestrianized cobblestone street that transforms into a lively area at night with the restaurants setting up their tables right on the street. It can get loud at night but with the windows closed, most of the noise is eliminated - we never had trouble sleeping.
The apartment is outfitted with everything you could possibly need. Toiletries, linen, towels, beach umbrella and beach towels, cooler, cooking utensils, oil, coffee, tea and maps. Wifi worked great during our entire stay.
The location is perfect. Everything is within walking distance - shops, restaurants, the harbour, the lighthouse, the beach, the market... It is very convenient.
The hosts are exceptional. Mania lives in Chania and was readily available when we needed her (we lost the keys). She even picked us up at the bus station the night we arrived in town. She is also a wealth of knowledge in all things Chania, providing advice on beaches, restaurants, parking (none on-site), driving etc.
Katerina is not in Chania but is very easy to contact via email and cellphone. She responded very quickly to all our inquires. Both hosts went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a truly fantastic stay.
We highly recommend this apartment. Although recently renovated, it still retains so much old world charm. Beautiful space and neighbourhood. Good vibes all around. We can't wait to return.
