My parents and I had a fantastic time staying in Anna-Malai. The location of this lovely house is absolutely breathtaking - there is a terrace from which one can enjoy the stunning view of the mountains and villages beneath Aptera. We loved the house because it had those rustic, traditional features (fireplace, stone decorative elements, wooden curved furniture etc.) and a very well equipped, contemporary kitchen. It is located close to Chania - 15 minutes drive; 10 minutes drive to a beautiful beach in Kyani Akti, an amazing archeological site in Archaia Aptera and three lovely tavernas in the village! Most importantly, we felt very well looked after by the hosts. Overall we do recommend Anna-Malai as a great holiday home.
