We (Dutch family of 4, 2 adults and 2 kids of 8 and 12) had an excellent stay in the house of George. We were staying there in 3rd week of October and the weather was still good (sunny). Approximately temperatures around 22 degrees, although we had some rain as well. The sea temperature was still around 21-22 degrees and hence in most of the time warmer then unheated swimming pools at other places (learned by experience).
The house is very spacious, basic, but well maintained. The walls are thick, so I imagine that this makes the house convenient to stay during hot summertimes. The view from the terrace on the bay and the possibility to jump directly into the sea makes your stay an extra special holiday experience.
The shore near the house is rocky, so bring your swim shoes with you. If you prefer a sandy beach ( really nice small grain sand), this is only situated 300 meter eastward and easy to access by a 4 minute walk.
As George has been grown up in this house, he really knows about everything to do and to discover. Stop reading travel books about Crete and follow the recommendations of George. Follow also some tips he has about nice restaurants in the neighborhood and Chania. You will stay away from the typical tourist traps and will be able to enjoy some typical nice Greek food.
We would love to come over once again.
