We had a wonderful stay in Chania. The house was very comfortably furnished and the location was perfect in the Old Town just steps from cafes, restaurants and shops. Katerini and Noni our hosts could not have been more helpful arranging taxis to/from airport and recommending great restaurants, beaches etc.

We had wonderful stay at this property. It is in heart of town little tucked away from hustle and bustle. All restaurants and nightlife easily accessible. Location is great if you want little peace and quiet but also want to hop out and venture. The apartment is multi-level with one bathroom on bottom floor, then two bedrooms staked on each other and another bathroom same level as deck. There are lot of stairs to go up and down. The property was well maintained and instructions to get in and out were clear. Noni our property manager was very communicative. Reached out to us before we landed. Getting into place was easy. She also sent us nice recommendations for places to go out. We also ended up booking our transportation to airport through her. We had some hick ups first day regarding hot water but Noni was on top of it and helped it resolved quickly. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and thanks to Noni for all help and recommendations!

This apartment is incredibly clean, well furnished with good quality furniture. The kitchen is ideal in hot weather being the first room you enter as it is very cool and well equipped with cutlery, plates, glasses etc. All the appliances are good makes and in excellent condition. Toiletries are supplied in both bathrooms and the hosts arrange cleaning times to suit you. Nea Chora beach is a 15min slow walk away that offers sunbeds and food services and Chania town and harbour are on the doorstop making its authentic street location ideal. The roof terrace is great for sun lovers, well furnished including plants. The hosts help with absolutely everything and nothing seems too much trouble.

Great location with excellent host!

The apartment is beautifully decorated and perfectly situated-- we loved being in the old harbor, and within minutes walking distance to the main town, groceries, shopping, restaurants, and the beach. The host is also very responsive, flexible and good natured. She bent over backwards to help us anytime we had a question or need-- just wonderful all around!

Amazing!

This apartment was right downtown in the cutest streets of Old Town Chania, right next to the Venetian Port. Lots of shopping and great restaurants within a couple minutes walk. Beach is a short 15 minute walk. No need for a vehicle. Bus station is a five minute walk to get from and to airport. Very comfortable beds in big bedrooms. Nice large rooftop terrace. Lots of communication and suggestions that were very helpful from Katerina.

Great location, terrific host, cool rooftop veranda

We were made to feel welcome from the first moment, with provisions in the fridge and cabinets, a list of recommended restaurants, and a tour of the place. The location is ideal - in the heart of Old Town Chania on a street that was fairly quiet. Beds were comfortable and we had plenty of good towels, including beach towels on request. The host was responsive and incredibly helpful. My only caveat: Given the steep steps between floors and the doorless sleeping areas, I would not recommend this for those with small children or mobility issues. Otherwise, a perfectly delightful accommodation I would go back to in a heartbeat.

If you are thinking twice...don't! Old Town is THE BEST location that you can choose to enjoy the charm and history of Chania. If you are a history buff, or love architecture like I do...this house is swoon-worthy. You can read the history in the walls and walking the neighborhood streets is like stepping back in time. You can walk anywhere from this location...the beach, the lighthouse, the grocery store...there are 2 restaurants and a charming art studio right outside your door. I was nervous about not being able to be dropped at the front door with our luggage, but don't worry...your driver can drop you right down the street. Maybe a 2 minute walk from your door. If you drive yourself, there is a public parking lot a 10 minute walk away. In short, the atmosphere can't be beat, and the communication is A. Anything that you need, from check-in to recommendations...Noni and Konstantina have you covered! I truly loved it here, and I was a little broken-hearted when I had to leave.

Location, location, location in the heart of Old Chania!

My husband, 18yo daughter and I enjoyed four days in this lovely home in June 2017. Communication Pre-Stay: Outstanding! Katarina could not have been more helpful, detailed, clear and responsive. Check-in: Katarina's assistant Constantina met us and greeted us very warmly, even though we were quite late arriving. She was very gracious and thorough, and made sure we knew everything we needed to know (including that we could call on her at any time for any help). We were very grateful that the kitchen was stocked with bottled water, coffee and creamer, fruits, bread, and even wine! The Home: Highlights were OUTSTANDING air conditioning in the two bedrooms, a washing machine on the top floor (and a nice drying rack for the wet laundry), a lovely roof patio, reliable WiFi and--again--LOCATION! I cannot imagine any home in Chania being more conveniently situated. We loved Chania and hope to visit again!

Une petite maison en plein cœur du vieux port avec tout à proximité. Notre hôte a été très bienveillant et à l écoute. La maison est tout en hauteur, les escaliers un peu rudes. Mais tout est là pour passer de belles vacances. Attention c’est un peu difficile de se garer mais on finit par trouver les bons plans. Une belle expérience

En fantastisk lägenhet på en tyst gata i gamla stan! Lägenheten är fyra våningar med fullt utrustat kök, fina sovrum med sköna madrasser och kuddar samt AC. Högst upp en jättefin terrass med solstolar och matbord/parasoll. Hela lägenheten är personligt inredd med fantastiska vackra gamla skåp och konst på väggarna. Fräscht och otroligt mysigt! Vi bodde här åtta dagar och det är den bästa lägenhet vi hyrt i Grekland. Noni som var vår värd är helt fantastisk!! Hon har funnits för frågor och guidning, alltid lika engagerad och med roliga tips på restauranger och stränder. Detta är en pärla, lyckliga ni som får hyra detta!

Phantastisches Altstadtflair am Meer und qicklebendige Entspanntheit

Wir haben uns großartig gefühlt in Katherinas Ferienhäuschen! Stilvoll und praktisch eingerichtet, gemütlich und sehr komfortabel. Wir fühlten uns sehr willkommen. Ob abends gemütlich auf der Dachterassse oder tagsüber bei einer Tasse Tee vor der Tür im Menschengewimmel sitzend gab es genügend Abwechslung. Und so im Herzen Chanias zu wohnen empfanden wir als großes Privileg. Unsere beiden Vierzehnjährigen konnten sich so auch selbständig durch die Stadt bewegen und genossen den Aufenthalt sehr. Den Strand, fußläufig erreichbar, besuchten wir gern. Und so einige gemütliche Tavernen... Wir bedanken uns herzlich für den schönen Aufenthalt und empfehlen das Häuschen sehr!

Great location and very comfortable accomodations.

I highly recommend this property for its location and comfort. Katerina provided a very helpful list of suggestions for places to eat and things to do. Our arrival was delayed by several hours because of flight delays making for a very late arrival. Katerina arranged for Constantina to meet us at the apartment who could not have been more welcoming and helpful despite the late hour. I highly recommend this property for your stay in Chana.

Lovely appartement in the heart of the old town Chania with terrace

We spent a wonderful time at the lovely appartement in the centre of Chania. The two bedrooms are beautyfully decorated and spacious. The kitchen going out to the small street is very well equipped and we enjoyed sitting on our little chairs in the lane having a drink in the evening. The many stairs up to the bedrooms and the beautiful terrace certainly kept us fit. The location is perfect, with walking distance to many restaurants, countless little shops and the supermarket. Fortunately the tourist crowds were at some distance so we had a deep and sound sleep. Thank you very much much for everything statring with the warm welcome including eatable and drinkable starterkit which we highly appreciated.

Lovely old house in the heart of Chania Old Town

Everything ran smoothly from our very first communications with Katerina, with swift responses and clear instructions and Constantina met us at the house as arranged, on our arrival from the airport. There was a welcome basket of fresh fruit, salad ingredients for a Greek salad and a really good array of store cupboard ingredients. The house is situated in a traditional narrow street and oozes character but has been refurbished to a high modern standard whilst still retaining immense charm. The décor is a clever mix of antique and modern style with some really interesting art work Breakfast and lunch on the roof terrace was one of our most abiding memories of a lovely holiday. The roof terrace is accessed via a loft style ladder so may not be suitable for very young children or anybody with mobility problems. The house is very well equipped and real attention to detail-full range of toiletries left in both bathrooms, plenty of washing powder etc. There a couple of lovely family run tavernas a few doors down from the house, which we can thoroughly recommend-good locally sourced food, beautifully cooked and a hospitable Cretan welcome. The beautiful harbour is a short level walk away but you feel that you can step back from the hustle and bustle in this property giving you the best of both worlds. We particularly enjoyed exploring the surrounding old town with its eclectic mix of tavernas and shops-there always seemed to be something new to see. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and can't recommend the house and the service we received highly enough.

Beautifully appointed and situated home in the old city

My wife, I and our 18 year old son just spent eight wonderful nights at this gorgeous property situated in a quiet street in the old city. The home worked great for us as a family with the two queen/double-sized beds and the single bed in the loft. The kitchen was well equipped and met all our requirements and the roof terrace is an absolute delight for breakfasting, drinks in the evening and even dinner. The location was ideal; being in the old city, but just a bit to one edge which meant it was a generally quieter than toward the harbor yet still convenient to everything. Katerina is such a caring hostess and guided us throughout the process making it remarkably easy for us to both secure and get to the house ultimately. Constantina met us there promptly upon arrival and got us situated and oriented, answering all our questions. She and Katerina provided us welcoming ingredients for a Greek salad, fruits and even a bottle of refreshing Cretan white wine and some beers to get us properly launched. We really had a marvelous stay and the house surpassed our expectations. We'd recommend it (and probably will!) without hesitation to our friends and family.
