Smaragdi's place was amazing, cozy, quiet and clean. The apartment was much better than on the photos. To the nearest beach is 15-min walk, to the shop and restaurant 5 min. If you want to visit another places (beaches, monastyr) you should rent a car. Water in the pool is really pure . You have everything you need there. Smaragdi is very helpful, hospitable host. Don't wonder too long, book the flat and enjoy Crete.
