Maria's flat is below her taverna in the mountains about halfway between Chania and Crete's South Coast. Maria was friendly and welcoming to us. The view from the room is good down the valley towards the sea at Elefonisi.
We sat in the Taverna listening to Maria sing beautifully to the accompaniment of her partner playing the Cretan Lute. The flat is not modern and has basic amenities. The shower is lovely and warm and the double bed was comfortable. The AC was good too. The furniture is somewhat random and the kitchen is very simple with no refrigerator. The booking does not include breakfast but you can buy it at the Taverna at a competitive price. Overall a good experience with Maria.
