The apartment is very good and very well equipped. Heating functions well. No dishwasher though. The view is stunning. The pool is big enough to swim in for adults and great for kids (5 and 8). No section for toddlers (one meter and 1,5 deep). Maria heated the pool for us, this was essential as the sea was not warm enough to swim in yet and heated pools, we learned, are rare on Crete. We really enjoyed it! Expect to drive 15-20 minutes for tavernas and shops. The food in the tavernas was great! The garden was wonderful to spend time in, both for kids and adults. Outdoor heating also functions well, we had some lovely bbq's outdoors in the evenings. Maria really made us all feel very welcome with chocolate eggs and drawing books for the kids, and local specialties! We also got to pick oranges straight from the trees! We loved it, if you want stunning, peaceful views, just go!
