Together with my brother we spent one week in Stalis apartment hosted by Benny and Marina. Both were very kind and helpful.
Apartment is a nice and clean place situated almost in a middle of the island with a 5 minutes walk from a very nice sandy beach.
There is plenty of shops and good places to eat nearby.
During our stay we managed to visit most of the beautiful places in east & west Crete (like Balos lagoon, Elafonisi or Via beach) mostly thanks to very good location.
I'd recommend the place for any one that is looking for a nice place to stay.
