We stayed at Nikos 10 days and it was a great experience. The host is great, very welcoming and always ready to help if you have a problem. For instance, we had to print something for our flight back home and we texted Nikos. He instantly sent us the location where we can print. When we arrived, the fridge had food inside, enough for a very good breakfast, and the hosts’ wife had made a cake for us. While we stayed there, Nikos kept bringing some local treats, which were delicious and gave us a true Cretan experience.
The house is huge, with 3 double bedrooms. Everything is clean and you have all the utilities you need: towels, detergent for the washing machine, liquid soap, etc. The beach is very close, and you can reach it quickly (2-minute walk) by going through the cafes. There, you can either order something at the bar and have the chairs and umbrella for free, or pay for them.
Stalos is a nice place. You can go to the long beach or take short walks. We also rented a car and went and visited Chania and other beaches around Stalos.
All in all, if you are looking for a simply relaxing, no-worries, cozy vacation, this accommodation is perfect.
