Cretan Holiday Home In Mountain Village Near The Sea / Vakantiewoning Kreta
Discover our very special 2 bedroom holiday Cottage for 1-5 persons in South East Crete, in a very peaceful mountain village Agios Ioannis, on about a 15 minutes drive from the beach!
Comfort in a lovely restored Cretan house, enjoy the view over the mountains all the way to the sea from your bedroom and roof terrace.
Lay-out ground floor: tiled enclosed (fenced) garden with garden furniture, entrance to fully equipped kitchen with cooker, washing machine, dishwasher; living room with sofa, armchair, tv (for dvd only) and fireplace; double bedroom with double bed and small single bed, also a separate door to the garden.
1st floor: bathroom with toilet and bath and sink, double bedroom with entrance to large roof terrace, clothes dryer.
There is a small café-restaurant in the village and an excellent music bar called 5ifty 5ive.
The village itself was largely abandoned in the 1970's, in recent years a number of houses have been restored as second homes.

Why they chose this property
We love Crete and the town Agios Ioannis because of the peacefulness. The view from the terrace is magnificent. The south east of Crete is not so touristy as the North of Crete and there is a lot to explore. It is also known as the the most southern area of Europe.
The house is in the middle of a village that was largely abandoned in the 70's. About 20 years ago people started renovating properties in the village, and now there are some really nice holiday homes there. There is a taverna in the village square, also a music café higher up in the village. The village is about 500 meters above sea level, and because of this is generally cooler than the coast. You definitely need a car for this trip! The lanes near the house are very steep, access with wheelchair is difficult.
We recommend doing your shopping before you drive up to the house, there are no shops in the village.
We have 2 wifi's in the house, a Vodafone prepaid router (cards from Vodafone Ierapetra or elsewhere) and a fixed Vodafone router which is glitchy. We recommend using the excellent 4G in the village.
