Alexis was a fantastic host, he was always avaliable to message both before and during the trip making air port transfers/check out very easy. The apartment was a short walk (which was lovely) to the beach, roughly 5-10 minutes in which you passed two mini supermarkets. The beach was beautiful, clean and tidy with very friendly people around. It was mostly filled with locals and the few tourists but overall very homely feel. There is a bus which runs every 2 hours to stravrous (another beach/tourist destination) which is roughly 15 minutes away. The apartment was perfect for what we wanted, we cooked in a few days and ate on the balcony. The airport was about 20 minutes away from the apartment which was ideal. The overall holiday destination was fab for a last minute deal and I would highly recommend Alexis apartment to enjoy your time in Chania.
