For two families with young kids, Giannis' place was large, quiet, spacious and cozy and met all our needs with a well-equipped kitchen and proximity to local supermarkets and restaurants. Giannis and his family live right next door and were warm and friendly and even left us with great local apricots and eggs! They were quick to respond to kid-related requests (i.e., crib, high chairs, etc.) and unforeseen issues. During our stay the A/C had failed and they actually replaced the unit within a day.
Our kids particularly enjoyed the newly installed above-ground aquarium like pool where the waters were perfect. The location of this place was also perfect for us to base as a hub to visit some of Crete's best beaches. The cute local town-centre and main road is steps away, with easy access to taxis, restaurants and travel agencies. Thanks for having us!
