can't see why not

Dear Traveller, Thank you for contacting us. Our hotel is a (max.) 20-minute walk to the ferry terminal. Public transportation is rather frequent and convenient, both within the city and also between cities and villages of the island. For instance, Heraklion to Chania is a 3 hours bus ride. Buses run every hour, starting at 05.30. There are plenty of beaches around the island, many of them accessible by bus, others by car. Please check the "Cretan Beaches" website or even their mobile app for more details and suggestions about beaches: It often comes in handy even to me as a local, since you find beaches of Crete per prefecture, according to the sea water color & depth, sand type (sand, pebble etc.) and -most importantly- accessibility (bus, car, boat etc). I see you're spending four or five days on the island, so depending on what you want to focus on (e.g. stick to one prefecture and see the city, archeological sites and beaches or try to see a few things all around the island) you may need to rent a car. If so, you can search yourselves to see some prices/ offers, but we can also provide you with some suggestions, if you wish to. It's true you save some time driving long distances (e.g. Heraklion-Chania is a 3-hour bus ride, while it's 2h15min by car). If you were to spend a week or more in Crete, you could use just the buses. However, if you want to visit more places in 5 days, you could rent a car or use both; rent a car for a 2-3 days to make long drives shorter and for 1-2 days use the buses for shorter distances (that take 15-35 minutes from Heraklion). That was just a few info to start with, but please feel free to ask us more questions and details in order to plan your holiday. We remain at your disposal. Looking forward to hear from you. On behalf of Kronos Hotel Maria Tsagkaraki Front Office manager
