Warm welcome by the owner who also provided great information about the surrounding area. Villa is beautiful, exactly as shown in the pictures. It was immaculately cleaned before our arrival and everything is included that you may need for the beach/pool.
Be prepared that the beach is not sand, but rather large pebbles. You can buy water shoes in the nearby grocery store, so it wasn't a problem. The pool is also great.
We enjoyed the view from the balcony watching the sunrise and sunset.
Location is convenient for discovering Chania and western Crete.
We had a great time and I would highly recommend the villa.
Die Villa war ein Traum. Direkt am Meer (Badeschuhe sind von Vorteil)
Das Haus und der Pool waren sehr sauber und wir hatten alles, was man braucht. Mehrere Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Urlaub. Vielen Dank für alles.
