The spacious apartment is located on the ground floor in the quiet neighbourhood, just a few minutes drive from Falassarna beach. There's a huge terrace surrounded by the garden, which is an ideal place for watching kittens during a morning coffee or evening beer. The house is quite old, but clean and well-equipped. There are so many rooms that three of us could sleep in different beds. Manolis is a great host, who welcomed us in the evening and responded quickly to our questions. During our stay we received fresh fruits and vegetables as well as local snacks prepared by his mother. It was a perfect week in Platanos, which is a good place to visit the western Crete (e.g. Kissamos, Balos, Elafonissi, Samaria Gorge etc.).
