The location is good as it is away from the bustle of the main resort, on a hillside with fabulous views. It takes 15 to 20 mins to walk down from the villa but could be difficult coming back up hill when very hot. We got lost when trying to find villa on our arrival. For future guidance - take the small road which is between TEMPO restaurant and RENT A BIKE showroom, opposite Alexandra Beach Hotel, then look out for signposts to villa.
Large spacious upstairs bedroom, well fitted out - there was no hairdryer. Quality linen & pillows - clean sheets and towels , changed during our stay.
Spacious lounge area, great small music centre that we could use and dock the ipod. Kitchen area quite small for food preparation but oven, hob & fridge freezer all good. No can opener.
Great to have a private pool even though small. Paved area around pool just has enough room for 2 people. Garden slightly overlooked by adjacent villa.
Stamatis met us when we eventually arrived but could not stay long as he was going away for the Easter weekend - we did not see him again. He did leave alternative contact details in case of any problems.
Supermarkets and restaurants easily accessible and if you have a car larger stores are only a few minutes drive away, towards Chania.
We had good weather and a relaxing time, recommend Olivi restaurant & Horiatiko Taverna.
Welcome bottle of wine much appreciated.
