We highly recommend this place!
We were warmly welcomed to the apartment by Eleni and Chrysi, who showed us around and also presented us with some local produce as a gift.
The apartment is great - clean, airy and with lots of windows with views to the sea and mountains. The kitchen is well equipped (sharp knives and lots of pots and pans), and there is also a washing machine upstairs. The apartment is surrounded by plants and fruit trees, and the pool at the rear is great for a dip. It has two terraces at both ground and first floor with amazing views from both.
Location-wise we loved it too! It’s just a short walk to ancient Aptera (amazing ancient ruins) and also a short walk in the other direction (10mins) to 3 local restaurants and small food shop.
Chania is only a short drive away and there are also local buses at the bottom of the hill that go there every 20mins or so.
We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to explore west Crete from a beautiful and relaxing hill-top home.
