I have just returned from a fantastic week staying at Spiros' home in Stavros. The location could not be beaten, a short distance to two wonderful beaches, at the end of a very quiet road-no traffic noise at all. Our stay was idyllic, sitting watching and listening to the sea on the terrace, eating outside and generally relaxing
There are two large bedrooms with very comfortable beds, shutters and screens at the windows. The kitchen had everything that you could want, with a small freezer too-great for chilling the raki ! The seeting area was adequate, as there were the outside terraces to eat and generally relax.
Local bars and restaurants provide all you may need for a meal out....... Sunset Beach Bar was our favourite.
When we arrived we were met by Spiros' father, who spoke great English, showed us around, and gave great recommendations for the best supermarket, bars and restaurants He could be approached just about anytime.
The house was clean with ample bedding and towels, all freshly laundered.
The washing machine was a great asset, for freshening up the beach towels and swimming costumes.
The house is a place of calm and serenity, truly an idyll. Thank you Spiros for giving us the opportunity to stay in your home and experience the true Crete, where the people are friendly and love to share their Island and culture.
