We greatly enjoyed our stay in our Melina Apartment. Of course we were fortunate to be upgraded to a top floor penthouse, but from our observations all apartments were very well appointed with a spacious balcony, and true to the photographs provided.
Our apartment was clean, fresh, with a pleasant decor. The kitchen/dining room had everything that we wanted, or needed, and a huge bed/settee provided for very comfortable lounge seating. In the separate bedroom, the Queen bed too, was very comfortable and the linen and towels provided were of excellent quality. The bedroom and lounge both opened onto the spacious deck, which was very well set up with furniture, and where we were able to enjoy meals, or a drink, and take in views of the sea, the beach and the old city walls.
The apartment is situated one road back from Koum Kapi Beach, a sandy beach, with its clear water and a moderate surf providing for excellent swimming at the beach’s Eastern end. Three very good restaurants including our favourite NAIS are in front on the Promenade, with good food at affordable prices, and an excellent Mini Mart nearby, enabled us to,purchase all the provisions we needed for our stay. WIFI was excellent at all times, and the Elevator/Lift provided us with easy access from the street to the apartment.
Most importantly the apartment is within easy walking distant of the Old Venetian Port, and minutes from all the sights, and historic venues that we wished to see or visit. For us the location was great, and far better than we had ever expected.
Lastly, our communication with our host Eftichia, was a decided plus for us. From the first communication, before we booked the apartment, and throughout our stay, Eftichia responded to our queries, quickly and efficiently and always in a most friendly and helpful manner. Thank you so much for helping make our stay so enjoyable. If we ever return to Chania we would very much like to stay again. We are most happy to recommend Melina Apartments to prospective guests.
