A beautiful villa with brand-new pool, well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable communal areas. Maleme is not for everyone- the beach is rocky, not sandy, and the villa was the nicest spot around- but the bus runs regularly to Chania and we found a great restaurant down the strip (Wave- we went almost every day!). Overall a good family option for Crete and the hosts were very responsive when we had any issues or concerns. Manuel gave my friends lots of good tips when they checked in.
