MaGea Asterias A fully furnished, quiet and cosy one-bedroom apartment immersed in nature and surrounded by olive groves. Brightly decorated with the warm colours of the starfish (hence its name ‘Asterias’), it is located on a panoramic hilltop near the village of Polemarchi, near Tavronitis, approx 20km outside of Chania, with easy access to Crete’s incredible West & South coasts. It has its own private entrance and space, with stunning views of the surrounding area and sea. Available all year round. The space ‘Asterias’ is finely decorated and fully equipped with all necessary furniture, electrical appliances and linens to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The hand embroidered curtains and cushions add an extra touch to the character of this cute apartment. Two balconies (one in the front and one at the back outside the bedroom), both with tables and chairs, allow you to sit outside to have a meal or sip a glass of wine while enjoying the peace and quiet and the views! There is a free parking space right in front of the apartment. In the kitchen/dining area you’ll find a sink, refrigerator, electric hob and oven, washing machine, cupboards/drawers with plates, glasses, cutlery, saucepans, electric kettle, toaster, percolator, espresso coffee moca, dining table and 4 chairs.

Other things to note Are you looking for a holiday home away from the touristy noisy areas of the island but still at easy reach to the most beautiful beaches and landscapes of Chania? Do you enjoy watching starry skies or breathtaking views of the moon as well as day and night views of the city of Chania and the golf of Kolymbari? Whether you are a couple who dreams of a romantic relaxing holiday, a family who enjoys the beauty of nature, breathtaking views and the warm hospitality of the locals, or a group of friends who want to explore somewhere different but still stay together and be at an only 20 mins drive away from the night life of Chania city centre or Platanias, our studios will meet your needs! The strategic position of the location will offer you a vast choice of short drive day trips to the famous beaches of Balos (60mins), Falassarna (40mins), Elafonissi (80mins), Paleochora (55mins) and many more! The local people are very friendly and will be happy to sell their home produce such as fresh eggs, homemade local fresh goat cream cheese, organic thyme honey, fruit, vegetables, raki and rakomelo. Every Friday there is a farmers' market at the nearby village of Kolymbari where you can stock up on fresh produce.

La propriété est très bien située pour rayonner dans la région. Elle se trouve au coeur de oliveraie avec une vue imprenable sur les environs. Eugénia est super accueillante et chaleureuse et organise parfois même des événements conviviaux. L'appartement est très bien équipé. Nous avons adoré notre séjour. ##### Tania D.
