The maisonette was even better than expected -- very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Chrysi and her family were exceptional hosts and we would not hesitate to recommend this choice to our friends. We think Aptera is the best area to stay on Crete as long as you have a car. It is beautiful, cultural, has a store, restaurants, nice places to walk, and easy access to beaches and Chania. Oh, and the goats were awesome! We are grateful to have had this opportunity to experience Greece for out first time.
