The stone, the water, the mountain, the sea, the rock , the cliff, the wind talking in tongues among the olive trees, telling old tales of heroes and gods, of labyrinths, of Minotaurs and other monstrous creatures, of powerful demigod kings, of forbidden loves, of pirates, and lost submerged continents. The silence, the peace , the banana trees, the beach, the waves, the sand , the sunsets , the moons on the sea, the freshly laid eggs, the goats and the lambs, the butterflies , the gold fish in the fountain , the wild thyme, the strawberry tree, the mediterranean heather and their honey, the grapes, the ouzo, the raki, the wine , the salt from the sea, the extra virgin olive oil. The sundial slowly drawing the hours, the home made cheese, the wilderness, the comfort , the coziness, the liveliness and the idleness, a total relax in the sun, in the history, in the myths , in the nature , in the cradle of the Western civilisation. And again, and always, and everywhere , and forever the sea. A brand new two-storey villa surrounded by olive groves, entirely built with local stone and furnished in the traditional Cretan style, with air conditioning in every room provided by a geothermal system exploiting the water from the well, with near zero energy consumption. Kitchen equipped with all modern facilities and appliances and with a supply of basic spices and dressings, and if you don' t feel like cooking you can find good typical tavernas nearby which also deliver your food at home. A modern 12 x 4 mt. swimming pool with water jets, loungers and gazebo. Subtropical garden with citrus and fruit trees, aromatic herbs, sweet-smelling flowers, a fountain with water lilies and golden fish. Fully equipped barbecue area, with a spit and a stone table, and a small kitchen garden from which you can pick the essentials to prepare your own Greek salad. Open terrace and veranda with a magnificent view on an ample stretch of the Cretan Sea, with its breathtaking sunsets and, in the night, a million stars appearing just when the jasmine starts to spread its sweet fragrance. A friendly and cozy fireplace for the colder season. Just a few miles away from the wonderful and well-known beaches of Elafonissi, Balos, Falasarna and from other hidden coves we will show you and from gorges offering an ideal environment for trekking. Not just a holiday , but a holiday you will remember and cherish forever. Come to spend a week closer to the ancient gods, in search of your roots, returning to where it all began. We speak your language. We understand your heart.
I am Kore, the youth, the innocence, the lightness I am the Goddess of the Flower A season in the nature and in the life of every woman. I have known the darkness of Hades, I have tasted the seeds of the pomegranate thus recovering my name: Persephone the Dreadful Silent Lady of the Kingdom of The Dead Only after passing through the threshold of darkness and after crossing the world of the shadows I may reascend to the light holding in my hands the sacred pomegranate the symbol of the eternal coming back

Endlich mal ein Objekt, welches in Natura wie auf den Bildern aussieht. Grandios! Urgemütlich, sauber, bestens ausgestattet. Sehr zufrieden waren wir mit der Kommunikation des Vermieters: Schnelle Rückmeldung und wirklich hilfsbereit.
Unzufrieden waren wir mit fewo-direkt, die nun von beiden Seiten (Mieter und Vermieter) Gebühren kassieren. Leute, lasst euch nicht von der Profitgeilheit treiben. Weniger war mehr. Ihr lauft hier in die Gefahr treue Kunden zu verlieren. Abgezockt wird man schon oft genug. Das Mehr an Gebühren ist in keiner Weise gerechtfertigt.

Dieses Haus, diese Lage, dieser Garten, dieser Pool, diese Inneneinrichtung, die Bäder, die Küche, die Außenanlage, die Einzellage - alles ist wunderschön. Es gibt immer einen Blick aufs Meer und Ruhe. Die Tavernen in der Nähe sind sehr authentisch und es schmeckt überall. Der Gastgeber, Glauco, ist sehr hilfsbereit (er hat uns für den ersten Tag Frühstück in den Kühlschrank gestellt, da wir spät am Samstag ankamen) und hat uns einen der schönsten Strände überhaupt gezeigt, unweit von dem schon sagenhaft schönen Strand Elafonisi. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
