Fontas couldn't have been more helpful, picking us up from the airport and taking us back at the end of the stay. Food was provided for our first day and Fontas took us to the local supermarket the next day to stock up. He was helpful in suggesting places to visit and providing map directions to get there. He offered to take us to local destinations, but we decided to rent a car for a few days, which Fontas arranged for us.
The apartment is at first floor level, Fontas and Magda living in the ground floor apartment. The balcony was large, with shady and sunny areas and with a beautiful view to the sea and mountains beyond. There is a small beach nearby, with a bar, taverna, sun beds etc., with clear warm water, safe for children, not so touristy as the larger beaches such as Stavros, but it's accessible on foot from the accomodation. If you want to go further afield, car hire is an advantage, and driving in Crete is easy, especially if you use satnav.
The apartment is very well provided with facilities, including a washing machine which is very useful if you are travelling light. Fontas. and Magda have obviously given a great deal of thought to providing the setting for a stress free and enjoyable stay and the accommodation and the friendly and helpful hosts are highly recommended.
