Stayed 13 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sophie 28 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We had a wonderful stay at this nicely appointed property and would return again. The sound of the sea was wonderful and calming and whilst the road is busy, as the bedrooms are at the back of the property, there are no issues with noisy traffic. It's unusual to stay somewhere with an excellent shower, however the drainage in the bathroom does need rectifying. The communication with the host/travel agent was excellent. Bus numbers 21 and 15 get you into the old town, which is beautiful. Would recommend this property and visiting Charnia.

One small detail; an ironing board would have made ironing shirts easier but must say the iron is fabulous (I wish I had the same one at home).

The apartment is not as big as we expected. Also, there are no supplies at all, such as oil, sugar, spices etc. The furniture is very uncomfortable and the decor is minimal. The view is great as promised. Communication was very good. ##### Alain P. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Lauren 19 Sept 2021 #### Beautiful apartment just missing a few essentials, nice view but loud road The apartment itself was very nice. Quite spacious and lovely design. I felt the kitchen was lacking with essential items. Even minimal kitchen supplies like coffee salt pepper olive oil for basic cooking. It only had 2 wine glasses and they didn’t even match. For advertising as luxury villa I would have expected this to be better. The road was so loud we hardly could keep the slider open. Beachfront in the description isn’t totally accurate when there is a busy road between the house and the beach. ##### Lauren ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andreas K. 7 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nahezu perfekter Urlaub Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieteragentur lief ausgezeichnet, bei dem von der Agentur geliehenen Mietwagen zeigten sie sich unglaublich flexibel. Großes Lob!!! Die Wohnung liegt perfekt zum Strand und für einen Ausflug nach Chania; lediglich die Hauptstraße vor der Terrasse ist laut, aber auch unterhaltsam. Bei geschlossenen Fenstern schläft man aber ruhig. Die Ausstattung der Wohnung ist gut bis sehr gut (Betten und Möbel top). Der Pool wurde nicht gereinigt. Der Blick vom Esstisch- unbezahlbar! Trotz Hauptstraße ein wunderschöner Urlaub!!! ##### Andreas K. Stayed 10 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna B., White Rock, B. C., Canada 1 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Crete seaside Spent the first week of our Crete holiday at Sonja 1 suite. It was a spotless accommodation with well equipped kitchen, great view from the kitchen table, comfortable beds and spa-like shower. The heavy door locking system and quality windows, plus shutters, gave a comforting sense of security in an already safe feeling neighbourhood. The frequent maid-service visits were helpful and we felt pampered. The beach across the street was ideal for swimming. The grocery store, a block away, carried everything necessary for meals in-suite. An option of three restaurants to the west, was all we needed for our one week stay. Nesaki was excellent and we returned several afternoons to try various things on the menu, Bus stop was just about one block away to ride to Chania Old Port area, which was a great place to explore. We thoroughly enjoyed our Sonja 1 stay and appreciated the check-out flexibility the last day of our reservation. ##### Donna B.
