I loved Chania by staying in this house !!!!!. The location is ideal next to the sandy beach, super market, bakery, restaurants. We used it as a base to explore the rest of Chania, the national road is really close. Until now we always rented places which had actually no free space and you could not spend a lot time inside. This house is exactly the opposite plenty of space to the sitting room, view to the sea from the balcony, plot with grass outside where the children played around. The location is ideal because although you stay at the crowded village of Platanias you have the privacy of your own house, nobody bothering you and everything within walking distance. John is a great host and had everything prepared for us, as we asked. Thank you one more time John for the lovely time we spent. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Crete again next year.
