Great place for beach access and proximity to Chania and Rethymno. Tavernas, grocery and amenities walkable. Also, great AC in every room! Very happy w/villa and beach view from the deck.

Very good location and very accurate description.

Kalyves is an ideal location for a very relaxing holiday , away from the crowd and the people are very friendly. The property is ideally situated, on the beach , close to the shop and just outside Kalyves where you can easily walk . The property is very well equipped and you will find everything you need to have a home away from home

Modern, comfortable condo on the beach.

We loved the location, views, and amenities at this condo. The unit is quite modern and spacious. Kalyves is a charming town and the people were very welcoming. We had some wonderful, inexpensive meals with great service, and enjoyed walking through the town and on the beach. It was nice to stay close to, but not in Hania, and we loved our visit to that city. Christine was very responsive and provided much information to make our stay more enjoyable.

excellent beach front location

Our party consisted of two adults and 4 kids ages 8-16. The apartment was perfect for us. It was clean and well appointed. The beds were comfortable and the many balconies made for easy access to the outside. It was located right on a very nice beach and to a grocery store so there was no need to drive anywhere. If the family visits Crete again, I would not hesitate to book this location again. It suited us perfectly.

Very nice place

Some issues that the owner was responsive to (peak of summer extreme heat caused upstairs to become uninhabital for a few days, but we purchased a fan which mostly fixed the issue and the owner said she will come up with a future solution (we also left the fan there and you can use it to bring air in from the ocean side and across to the kitchen). The place was an ideal location with a very nice beach (the property is beachfront, but set back behind the fromt properties) and it has a nice view of the beach from the upper balcony. Definite authentic Greek/Crete community!

Very nice accommodation directly by the sea

The apartment has two bedrooms downstairs (one room with 2 single beds and one room with a larger bed). The rooms with the single beds have 2 balconies. Upstairs is the kitchen-living room with another sofa bed. The kitchen is perfectly equipped (except for a blender). There are two more balconies upstairs. One with a very nice sea view. The apartment is right on the street, but the windows are relatively tight. Directly opposite is a large supermarket, and a few taverns and cafes nearby. The actual village center is about 1.5 km away. From the apartment you go through a corridor directly to the sea. There are deck chairs. There are also shady spots by the sea. The area was not crowded even in high season. There are a few stones in the sea, though, so be careful or wear swimming shoes.

Beach appartment stay in Beautiful Crete

This is an appartment which is very well situated in a beautiful part of Crete. It is in the quieter end of Kalyves close enough to the sea to nip down for an early morning swim. It is opposite the supermarket and a few minutes walk from some very recommended tavernas. Beach with brollies are a few minutes away as is a bus stop taking you to Chania town. A balcony looks over the sea for morning and evening moments of loveliness. Would definitely return.

Relaxwoche in Kalyves

Ideal gelegene Ferienwohnung in Kalyves,nur ein paar Stiegen zum Strand ,mehrere Tavernen in un mittelbare Nähe ,ein Supermarkt gegenüber und ca 10 Gehminuten ins Dorfzentrum 30 Minuten vom Airport und viele Mustsees von Westkreta nicht weit entfernt Die Ferien Wohnung sauber,die Schlafzimmer unten und die Wohnküche oben ! Alle Zimmer sind klimatisiert ! Oben ein Balkon mit dem schönsten Meerblick leider morgens zum Frühstück nicht geeignet da volle Sonne und kein Schirm vorhanden Die Wohnung ist gut ausgestattetund auch einen SmartTv gibt es(es sind auch Sonnenbetten vorhanden die aber leider ziemlich verrostet und eingerissen waren)und für uns 3 Personen gerade richtig!(für mehr wirds ein bisschen eng) Der Strand vor der Anlage ist fast privat aber auch hier ist es ohne Sonnen Schirm fast unmöglich bis zum Nachmittag zu liegen da volle Sonne und nur wenig Schatten von wenigen Bäumen die bald belegt sind Dies ist jedoch kein Problem da einige wenige Meter weiter Betten und Schirme zu mieten sind oder wenn man etwas konsumiert diese auch gratis sind Alles in allem ein schöner Platz zum entspannen und genießen! Wir haben es ! Auch die Kommunikation über die App mit den Vermietern sehr einfach,man bekommt eine Vorinformation über die Wohnung und Umgebung und eine detaillierte Anleitung wie man vom Flughafen nach Kalyves kommt! Vielen Dank an die Vermieter !!

Tolle Unterkunft mit schönem Strand direkt davor

Die Wohnung ist wunderschön, wir haben dort nichts vermisst. Durch die Terrassen auf beiden Seiten konnten wir zu fast jeder Tageszeit zwischen Sonne und Schatten wählen. Der Strand ist direkt vor der Anlage und im Oktober waren wir dort fast allein. Der Supermarkt direkt gegenüber und mehreren Restaurant im Gehentfernung sind auch sehr angenehm. Das einzige Manko: Die Wohnung liegt direkt an der Straße durch den Ort. Nachts ist es ruhigt, aber zwischen 5 und 6 Uhr kommt die Müllabfuhr und danach nimmt der Verkehr zu. Für uns kein Problem, aber wer lärmempfindlich ist, muss mit geschlossenem Fenster und Klimaanlage schlafen. Unsere Vermieter haben uns toll unterstützt mit Mietwagenvermittlung, Informationen aller Art - und wegen unseres späten Abflugs durften wir auch bis 17 Uhr am letzten Tag in der Wohnung bleiben, vielen Dank nochmals hierfür!

Alles Tip Top

Das Appartment ist genau wie auf den Bildern , jeden morgen mit Meer blick frühstücken perfekt.Der Strand ist auch sehr schön , es gibt Strandspielzeug für Kinder und man ist nicht weit entfernt von den Sehenswürdigkeiten bzw. Schönsten stränden wie z.b Balos. Mit John war der Kontakt auch immer sehr gut ,er hatte uns vorher Informiert wie es auf Kreta aus sieht mit dem Virus und auch als wir Ihn Persönlich kennen lernten war er sehr freundlich.Wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

Lovely stay in Kalyves

The apartment is exactly as described on the website, the location is perfect with the beach just a few steps away, some lovely tavernas a couple of minutes away and then the centre of Kalyves with more tavernas and main beach about 10 minutes walk by the sea. The 2 bedrooms are both a decent size with plenty of storage space and are on the ground floor, the kitchen and living room on the first floor are really bright and airy with a nice balcony overlooking the sea. One thing on the bathrooms that would make it even better is to have a shower curtain or screen on the upstairs bathroom so there are then 2 usable showers rather than a shower and a bath. The information we received from Christine and John was excellent and email response was always really prompt. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property, we travelled as a couple with my mum and found everything to be spot on.

Perfect apartment perfect holiday

Third stay at this great modern apartment. Location is great and with all equipment you would need for self catering. We ate out a lot because there are great very reasonable priced tavernas near by. Sun Loungers are provided for the lovely private beach outside the small apartment complex. The main (busier) beach of Kalives is an easy 10minute walk away. Loved our stay here. Fully recommend.

Perfect - Magnificent sea view, clean and bright

The apartment was very comfortable and modern. Perfect for a relaxing holiday and has its own sandy beach. Local restaurants close by and supermarket opposite. We hired a car with Christine’s recommendation as we wanted to explore the area a little but really you could easily spend your time in the village and the other local beaches which are all within walking distance. I would definitely recommend the apartment and this location. It is perfect.

All amenities are within walking distance, supermarket opposite the apartment, and a variety of other shops, mini markets, cash machines, bakery, etc in the centre of the Village. Excellent selection of tavernas , all serving excellent Greek cuisine. We will return !! Actually now booking for 2019 !
