I would highly recommend staying at Javi's place! The apartment is in an absolutely gorgeous location on Crete, only 15 mins from the airport (this wasn't an issue for noise either). The 3 small beaches are very clean and they don't get particularly crowded (seems to only be weekends). The restaurants nearby are 2 mins walking and offer fresh seafood and a few vegetarian options. We found the apartment to be very clean and well stocked, however we didn't have a car for our stay so finding some supermarkets was a bit of a problem. The bus stop is again only a 2 min walk however they don't run very frequently so we would recommend a car to get the most out of your stay. Javi is an amazing host, so welcoming and friendly. He offers great advice about the best restaurants in the area, and helping organising transport. The pool and outside areas are kept very clean and neat, it was a very comfortable space with everything you could need, we couldn't recommend it enough :))
