We had such a great time at Terpsis Estate. The apartment is located in a quiet area, about 20 min walking from the Old Harbor. The neighborhood is very pleasant and there are a few supermarkets and bakeries close. The apartment looks great, is spacious, lovely decorated and very clean. It has a comfortable bed, 2 air conditioning, which is so important during summer, hair dryer and even an ironing machine.The kitchen is equipped with a stove top, a small electric oven, coffee maker and other useful cooking accessories. It has everything you need in order to feel at home. What we appreciated the most was the generosity and kindness of the owner, Nikos, who tried to make our stay as comfortable as possible. I would recommend anyone who visits Chania to spend their holiday here. It is the perfect place for those who want a relaxing and quiet holiday, while still being close to the city.

The accommodation features a satellite flat-screen TV. Some units are air conditioned and include a seating and/or dining area. There is a private bathroom with a shower in every unit. Towels and bed linen are featured. The place was immaculate. Clean and stunningly beautiful. There are only 3 cottages but I think that night, my husband and I were the only guests. We loved the peaceful setting and appreciated all the details that the owner put into it. Breakfast was delicious! This was our favorite place in Crete. We would highly recommend a stop there on your way to nearby Knossos palace or Heraklion.
