The village of Scaloti is 1 km to the east and Frangokastello is 3 km to the west. There are many tavernas and mini markets in Frangokastello. 13 km further west is Hora Sfakion, with a daily ferry service to the beautiful inlet of Loutro, Aghia Roumeliand the historic town of Paliochora.This little paradise of apartments is beautifully situated right on the seafront, in the peaceful unspoilt area of Laki. Mary Beach is peacefully situated 1 km down a country lane off the main road leading to Frangokastello. Enjoy fantastic mountain views and many secluded sandy beaches and coves in the immediate vicinity of the property. There is a large garden to the front of the complex with trees, shrubs, umbrellas and chairs, allowing for moments of indulgent relaxation. Just past the end of the garden you will find the sandy beach. The area is superb for fishing, diving and snorkelling, with lots of hidden coves along the rocky coastline. As the sun sets, you can return to Mary Beach and enjoy a meal in our traditional taverna.

Crete. As well as the magnificent beaches and warm seas, the size and physical variety of the island of Crete invites exploration, and Mary Beach Chalets, located at Frangokastello, Chania Region, 73011 , Greece, is the ideal staring point. Uniquely among Greek islands, Crete’s mountainous spine creates a sense of spaciousness, a life distinct from sea and sand. Fly-drive holidays to Crete – or simply the hire of a car for some days during your stay in Mary Beach Chalets, – will enable you to seek out the rugged formations of the interior, the fertile countryside and tiny chapels filled with frescoes, the mountain villages where time has stood still. Always, the authentic spirit of the islanders, their fierce independence and pride – as well as the best cooking and most delicious meals that constitute the famed “Cretan Diet” – will more likely be found where few others are looking. With so much to see, with dolphins to watch, shaded squares to paint, olive trees and wild orchids, Minoan remains and sweeping beaches, no wonder Crete holidays and Mary Beach Chalets are revisited so often.
