We arrived late on a saturday evening. To late to go shopping, but surprise there were some basics in the fridge. Great! The appartement is really 2 min from the sea. The pictures on airbnb give a good impression of the appartement. It is very clean and very tastefuly decorated. From the appartement to the old town of chania it takes you about 30 to 40 minutes on foot, along the beach. I would still recommend to rent a car otherwise it would be hard to see the points of interest Elina advises, and you don't want to miss her recomandations. We stayed only a week, therefor we could follow only some of her recommandations but what we could follow was great. Elina and her parents are very friendly people. I would rent the appartement again.
