I had two wonderful weeks at this place!!
Great location with everything in easy reach, from Chania to the beautiful beaches of the West coast, and even the South coast with some hidden gems (ask the hosts l!!) is in easy reach for a day trip. The closest beaches of Gerani are about 5 min by car and so are supermarkets, bakery, cafes, restaurants, etc. There are also busses from Gerani to Chania and other parts of Crete. I had a car for the whole stay but a scooter or even a bike might do too, depending on what you plan to do.
The place itself is great value for money!! It is wonderfully spacious, bright and airy and surrounded by the most beautiful nature: a huge garden and views to the famous Lefka Ori (White Mountains) of Crete, and even a tiny bit of sea view. You can just spend a morning sitting on the peaceful terrace and enjoy the garden while having breakfast. Christina and Nikos, the hosts, have put a lot of effort and love into decorating and furnishing the apartment, and it has a wonderful, charming energy - it exactly looks like on the photos if not better! There is no aircon but a ceiling fan, and, trust me, you will be fine, I was there during very hot days but still in the Cretan countryside it nicely cools down at night and because there is so much greenery surrounding the place, you will have have a good temperature at night. Also, all the windows have mosquito nets, so you can just sleep the window open and enjoying the fresh, clean air.
Great amenities, there is even a washing mashine in your bathroom which you can use for free, which was a good add for a longer stay.
The hosts, Christina and Nikos, are wonderful, warm people who did everything to make my holidays a good ones. Christina even offered me home cooked Greek specialities which were delicious!! They gave me some good tips on what to explore on the South coast and will help you with everything they can. They are offering wonderful hospitality while still highly respecting your privacy!!
I can highly recommend this place to everyone who would like to explore West Crete and Chania and at the same time stay in a beautiful, comfortable apartment, enjoying the peace and relexation offered by the wonderful garden!
