The Apokoronas region to the east of Chania is a very picturesque,fertile area with several sandy beaches at Almirida, Kalives and Georgioupolis.Many authentic villages are in short distance beyond the beach, like Armeni,Nio Chorio and Vamos.Our villa is between Armeni and Nio Chorio,in a quiet farmaland area,perfect for walking and biking, yet only 2.5kms from the sandy beach. In Nio Chorio and Armeni there are several excellent local tavernas, one with a creche for children,few within walking distance from the villa(1km).
The village Kalives in 2.5kms offers great choice in shops,cafes and supermarkets, and two sandy beaches,one on either side of it.
