We stayed in Marilena’s place for a month and it was perfect. The place is beautiful, private pool with a lovely garden. Marilena and her husband are very kind and helpful. The location is perfect, however you need to rent a car to get around Crete. The area is very safe, quiet and clean. Marilena cleaned the pool every morning which was much appreciated. We also had a dog with us and he was very welcome in Marilena’s place! Definitely would come back in a heartbeat :)
