We had the most amazing stay, the house was beautiful and also lovely and cool. The pool was fantastic and we were lucky enough to have it all to ourselves which was wonderful.
The short, steep road up from the beach was a little difficult for one of us but it didn't detract from the wonderful time we had. The kitchen is very well equipped, lacked a small saucepan but that was all. Super welcome pack of fruit and wine. Loved the view down to the river bed and the sea beyond. We enjoyed watching the neighbours chickens and peacock walking in the water of the river bed. The food locally is delicious and pretty inexpensive. You may need beach shoes as the water line is stoney. Tap water was ok to drink if boiled. We took the bus to Chania and had a brilliant day mooching around the old town and harbour and ate in Mesostrato restaurant which was a building that had been bombed in the war, so was just walls with no roof, amazing and great food. We had a wonderful week, the only problem is that I would have liked to stay for a month!!! Would love to go back again for another stay.
