Despina is an awesome host! She is very welcoming and likes to ensure that her guests have a great time. The apartment has an amazing view from the balcony and even from the bedroom. It was super clean and well equipped with everything you need to cook or to prepare breakfast (eg bialetti). The beach is just a few minutes drive and in our opinion on of the best in Crete. Its less crowed than Balos or Elafonisi and we preferred it. Crystal clear water. We also walked one time to the beach through the olive trees which takes about 25 -30 min.
We can recommend it with no hesitation. Enjoy.
