Villa Alexander

The accommodation was very nice, clean with all you need. One huge fridge, kitchen completed, 2 separated rooms with balcony per each apartment, one living area and one terrace. The host Sandy together with Tamara were very friendly and gave us all information, products or services that we needed.

Nothing. This accommodation was more than perfect.

Pool area was very nice, with shade and beautiful view. Very tranquil, but close to all that we wanted/needed

All was good

The room was clean and the staff were nice

The matress was uncomfortable. Soap dispencers were broken. No umbrellas by the pool. Most sunbeds were broke. The hot water in the bathroom was not working or it was too hot. The location is not great.

It was very clean, walking distance to a small shop, beach and local bus stop to Chania. Local bus only cost 1.60 per person to get to Chania - very affordable as there were 5 of us. Liked also it was a small complex so never felt too over crowded at the pool. Receptionist very helpful. Lots of information leaflets in the room on arrival about excursions & takeaways.

Its in the flight path of all air traffic in & out of the airport which was quite noisy at times. The fighter planes were extremely loud too. Quite a bit out of the way from the hustle & bustle of tourist shops & restaurants- Only 2 restaurants within walking distance so needed to get the local bus into Chania for more selection. Ideally youd be best having a hired car to get around but we survived.

In quite a location that is always from the hustle and bustle. It got a decent size pool and a slight view of the sea. The apartment complex isn't huge, so there wasn't too much noise when we stayed. The room was an ok size with a working stove that was great when traveling with a toddler.

1. Shower temperatures weren't consistent, which could be difficult to give a young child a shower. It's either too hot or too cold 2. There weren't any instructions about if recycling required, where to throw away nappies until "informed." 3. Short staffed. We were asked to keep our room tidy and clean because they only have a cleaning lady for 12 units complex. Sands could have been brought back from our shoes... unless you don't go to the beach at all with a toddler, it's hard to avoid from sandy shoes or swimming nappies! 4. Ok kitchen, but one indicator light on the stove doesn't work, so it can be hard to tell which one is on until you hear water boiling. Advice to check on it and notify the staying guests prior to the check-in will be nice.

Yeah it was a wonderful time spend in Crete

I particularly liked the friendliness of the staff and the cleanliness of the property. The staff is very accommodating and super nice. The view and the pool are great and you are only minutes away of a lovely beach. It's still close to Chania but you'll definitely need a car to wonder around (and there are so many beautiful places to see in Crete) The price is also very good, so I highly recommend!

The only downside was that in our room (number 3) the bathroom was badly designed. There was no showerhead holder and the toilet is almost in the shower, but I don't think it's the same in every room. But that's only a detail the rest was great!
