If you want to spend some relaxing days/your whole holiday in the Chania region, we can highly recommend Maria‘s place. She is so nice and welcoming! The pool area is super nice and clean with enough space for everybody. The apartment is spacious and well equipped with a very nice balcony. Maria is always available for questions and gave us great advice for free parking and the best restaurants. Ask her about the best chocolate cake, but only order one piece for two people. Trust me, it’s huge! :-)
A car would be good in that area, also to visit different beautiful beaches in the west. However, there is a great restaurant in walking distance (400m). It says gourmet, but the prices are totally fine for the quality of the food. Try the chocolate soufflé. Walking downhill on the other side also takes you to more restaurants and supermarkets, but it’s easier to take the car in the heat (5min).
