The view of the mountains was stunning, the pool enjoyed despite the cold stormy weather, and the indoor facilities provided all we needed when there was little to do outside. The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean and convenient. Evangelia was incredibly helpful from the point of booking onwards, and gave us a warm and generous welcome when we arrived. Any questions were immediately answered, recommendations given and help provided throughout our stay. We were very happy guests and would love to stay here again should we return to Chania! ##### Gilli E. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ---
