This is a really great house, with lots of room and lots of different kinds of bedrooms -- all of which were very comfortable. The house has nice balconies and outdoor spaces. The house is close to the beach, and there are a number of really good restaurants on the beach nearby. The house is ideal for large families or a group of friends. It's a great place to stay and relax, but it could also be a good base from which to see different parts of Crete. We took the bus to Hereklion and walked to the beach and to restaurants, which worked very well, but if you had a car, you could see a lot of the island from here. The host is really responsive and was really helpful getting us set up with groceries. I would definitely stay here again. Hopefully longer next time!
