Alkis’s father collected us from the airport and sat with us for over an hour discussing places to visit and organizing our local car hire. The apartment was very roomy and spotlessly clean. We especially enjoyed breakfast under the lemon tree on the veranda. Alkis himself was a wonderful and generous host, nothing was too much trouble. It was pleasant to be away from the main town and close to good restaurants and the beach. A great way to start our Cretan holiday.
