7 km west of Chania, the village of Lower Stalos fringes a long, sandy beach with the island of Theodorou, said to be a petrified sea monster, rising from the sea just a short distance off shore. There are numerous small pensions and apartments as well as half a dozen convenient little mini-markets and an excellent little patisserie, selling delicious fresh baguettes and croissants. There are also a number of waterside tavernas with shady terraces overlooking the sea and teenagers can chill out at one of the atmospheric palm thatched beach bars. 1km inland the small village of Upper Stalos nestles serenely on the hillside amidst a patchwork of vineyards and olive groves. Here you will find a slower pace of life as well as a couple of the best local tavernas in the area, both certainly worth a visit or two! Accommodation Guestbook Stalos
Review Rating : 5/5 \"wonderful holiday \" \"Just returned from 2 weeks of bliss, lovely apartment in an idyllic setting. the owners Dimitri and Manaolis were so kind nand helpful. Everything we could ever need was provided and the apartment was kept spotlessly clean by the extremely dedicated maid. we hired a car and explored the beaches at Elanfonissi just like a tropical paradise and Falasarn with the warm winds. Do the Samaria gorge and the Fenneys guide to Chania you will always wish you had. i will be telling all my friends to visit this island and to stay at ROULADINA\" , Aug 2008 |
