We had a great time on Crete and that was not least due to Manolis and his wife Veli and their wonderful apartment. The communication was impeccable from booking to key transfer to departure. Manolis responds quickly and is very helpful. Everything was as seen on the pictures. The location of the apartment is great. It is a few minutes away from the tourist hustle and bustle in a small village. Thus, one has one's peace and quiet and can still be quickly in the middle of life, at the beach and in the next bigger city Chania. Shopping possibilities, restaurant, gas station & Co. are fast and easy to reach. The popular sights as the beaches Balos, Elafonissi, Falasarna or the gorges Samaria or Irini can be easily reached from the apartment with a little driving time. Manolis & Veli were incredibly hospitable. They gave us a local wine for our wedding and brought us fresh sheets and towels after the first week of our stay. But they are not intrusive and let you enjoy your holiday in peace. Highly recommended!
