Skandalis was just the perfect place to stay!!! We arrived at Chania airport at 10pm, with a pretty short drive (meaby 10 minutes) we were at the apartment and Xaris and his mother Poppy were there smiling waiting for us! Check in took us very short still with all assistance needed and soon we were sitting at the nice Taverna just crossing the road. The following day the kids woke up with a splash in the pool just in front of our veranda and by the time the entire family was awake Poppy served us an amazing cretan style breakfast!! This was an extra but sooo nice that we ordered it every day! Poppy and Xaris were always available and friendly... we felt since the beginning like we were visiting friends!
The house has a charmy rustic flavour and the kitchen is very well equipped. This is a perfect place for a family like us with kids waking up early and grandparents sleeping till 10!! The swimming pool is nice and super clean.
Grocery shops are in walking distance.
The location is also fantastic and we highly recommend the 5 minutes far Tarzana Beach!!! After 15 days all around Crete we still remember the nice semplicity and clear water of this little bay!
Xaris recommended us with a car rental from his village (Chorafakia) which gave us a super nice service for half of the rate compared with all wellknown car rental agencies! Thanks Xaris also for this!!
All the best, Carola & Mado
