Kavros Beach 3 * - a small 3-storey hotel, consisting of several houses, a corridor leading to the sandy beach of the delightful Cretan Sea. The hotel employees are friendly, solving all problems instantly (for example, we didn’t have an ashtray or a hair dryer in our room. The maids guessed about the ashtray themselves. We only hinted at the hair dryer at the reception, they immediately gave it to us). Restrained minimalism reigns in the rooms. There is air conditioning, a mini-fridge, TV, telephone, shared bathroom, a tiny safe in the built-in closet (the key to the safe can be taken at the reception for a fee). The spacious loggia has a folding dryer, plastic chairs and a round table. The floors are all tiled, no carpets. Bed linen and towels are changed every three days, but cleaning is daily. Good swimming pool (without diving towers), bar, table tennis, spacious dining room with "terraces". On the beach and around the pool, sunbeds are free, stretched with mesh material, therefore they are always clean. The beach is clean, no cigarette butts. Surprised by the lack of fish (and seagulls, respectively) in the sea. But the sea, of course, is magical, bewitching, with boiling-white scruffs of the waves, infinitely affectionate. The food (we had HB, i. e. breakfasts and dinners, buffet) is excellent, thanks to the cooks of Kavros Beach! Of the special sweets, these are the freshest croissants, local oranges (they were in great demand), garlic-mayonnaise sauce (will decorate any dish). For dinner - dry table wine, white and red - no one limits, you pour yourself. It is light and perfectly quenches thirst. The tables are served very modestly (white oilcloth tablecloth, salt, pepper, sugar, paper napkins, toothpicks). Cutlery and bread we take ourselves. Animation only for small children (disco), adults in the evenings can sit in the cozy taverns of the village of Kavros. We did just that. Across the road - a gas station (1 liter of the 95th costs about 1.8 euros), 2 supermarkets (approximate prices: bread - 1.5; cheese, sausage, sliced ​ ​ u200bu200b150 gr. - 1.5 - 2.5; wine - 3-6, cigarettes - 3-5), shops selling all kinds of stuff until late; bus stop (to Rethymno and Chania - a stone's throw); tram stop (special wheeled trams run to Lake Kournas and back, a round-trip ticket costs 8 euros). Hotel - for a relaxing holiday
