While we were there we stayed at a wonderful place with a big balcony that overlooked the whole village and the beach (Mouratis Apartments/taverna - see picture below for the telephone number). It was run by an older, very friendly lady, that hardly spoke any english...but we understood eachother anyway. She's also a marvelous cook. We had a two rooms apartment that was big, clean and cheap :).
Most of the houses in Tsoutsouros are built along the coastal street, just by
the long sandy beach. While most houses are new there are still some of them
preserving the old traditional character, especially at the center of the
village. A lot of the houses are covered with bougainville and other kinds of
flowers. There are plenty of taverna's and supermarkets, but out of high season
a lot of them are closed. On the beach there are no beachchairs and umbrella's
(yet), but you will find a couple of showers to wash off the salt from the sea.
Tsoutsouros really stole my heart: one of the best places in Crete.
