Ideally located just 100 metres from sandy Kavros Beach, this fuss-free apartment offers a modern stay from which to explore the Cretan coast. While the minimalist contemporary decor isn’t the most inspiring here and at capacity two guests will need to share the living room’s sofa bed, a private balcony with sea views is a nice touch – ideal for enjoying a glass of Greek wine at sunset. The bus stop for services to Chania, Rethymno or Heraklion is just 50 metres away – though the apartment comes with free parking – and beautiful Kournas Lake is 4 kilometres from your door.
