The beach is literally 2 mins walk from the apartment which make it really convenient as traveling with a 12 year old and a 15 year old. We could run back and forth quite easily.
Apartment was clean and had a small sofa bed in lounge. Kitchen has limited utensils but they are fine for a few nights stay. Washing machine was very convenient.
We parked out car just outside which was very convenient. Only one flight of stairs to the apartment so easy for all. Room was a great size with plenty of storage. We ate outside on the terrace with sea view every evening except 1 when we went for a pizza 5 mins drive away.
We drove 15 mins to old town and harbour. Parking in Chania in the evening is difficult so allow plenty of time to find parking. 2 car parks were very convenient but very busy.
Big Supermarket is 5 mins drive from the apartment so easy to stock up after arrival.
The beach opposite the flat had wc and changing areas too. Beach cafe had great food for a quick lunch/snack and really relaxing atmosphere. The biggest selection of ice cream I have seen in a long time.
