The apartment is stunning and George is an amazing host. Make use of George’s knowledge to help get around and visit places, he is really approachable and helpful. There is a small rocky beach near by which you need sea shoes to use comfortably. There are more beaches within a short driving distance. The main Chania area is about a 30 min walk away and I advise hiring a car to explore what the island has to offer. The apartment makes a great base to do this from and it has everything you would need and more for an excellent self catering stay.
