房源位置

Stavros is a dreamy sandy cove and a great spot for a relaxing holiday, it has two beaches which are organized with umbrellas, sunbeds and refreshments. It is a popular summer destination among locals, but the restrained tourist development helps the area to keep its wild and unique beauty.
Around the area you will also find several tavernas, cafes and several small hotels. It is a small semi-circular lagoon, perfectly protected from the local winds. The bay has white sand and turquoise shallow waters. The contrast of the wild mountain landscape with the beautiful calm beach, make Stavros a unique place for swimming.
The western beach is slightly quieter and, weather permitting, is an excellent choice. Don't leave without taking a walk on the small peninsula that separates the two beaches, as it hosts the ruins of the Venetian quarry where the limestone was quarried for the construction of the walls of the city of Chania.
A characteristic feature of the area is the camel-shaped Mount Vardis, which rises opposite the village harbor with the cave of Stavros. It was on this mountain that the scenes of the film 'Zorba the Greek' were filmed, where Anthony Quinn danced the famous sirtaki in 1964. Back then, the Cross was just a small fishing village. Today the area has grown into a favorite tourist resort.
Next to the Cross there are many beaches for swimming. At the popular sandy beach of Kalathas (6 km south) you can go windsurfing and take windsurfing lessons as well as try water skiing, water games, canoeing and diving. There is a restaurant on the beach and volleyball facilities. Tersanas beach (5km southwest) is another alternative for swimming and relaxation. Marathi beach (10km south-east) is also sandy and has a bar and café.
