We had a lovely 10 days at Tor's villa as a family with 2 teenagers. All essentials were provided which made life easier. 2 supermarkets and 2 restaurants in the village but that's about it. Everything else we drove to including the 2 local beaches as didn't think they were safe enough to walk to on a busy and hilly road, so was more remote than we first thought. Chania is only 25 mins away in car though and the lovely Stavros beach only 10 mins away with some nice restaurants. Planes going over didn't really bother us but the noise of the cicadas were constant.
