The apartment is really quite unique. It is located in the basement of a larger villa, so has a 'cave like feel', and it's like your own little place. We've never been treated to so many unexpected extras on AirBnb. Nantia made us a lovely dinner, a homemade cake, left us a bowl of fresh cherries, beers, wine, breakfast, soaps, insect spray - really above and beyond everything we could've needed. You definitely need a hire car as the village itself is very small, however, it is a superb base for the whole of Western Crete - and in particular, brilliantly located for Fassarma Beach (which was in our opinion, the best beach we visited including Elofinisi, Preveli, Stavros, Seitan and Marathi).
