A beautiful place!

Thanks to our lovely host Emma. The small house is an old stone house and beautifully decorated, absolutely clean and equipped with all amenities. It is located in the middle of an olive grove. You wake up with the sound of the wind and the cicadas. That's exactly what we were looking for. The location is perfect, you can quickly reach beautiful and remote beaches and there is a lot to see in the area. And the recommendations for the taverns can be followed thoughtlessly. For us, the south-east is the most beautiful part of Crete. Thank you Emma

Wonderful quirky property

What can we say this lovely traditional cottage is just beautiful, it is exactly as you see in the photographs and although it is not big it is fine for two people. Maria could not have been more helpful when greeting us and the cottage was spotlessly clean with everything you could need for an enjoyable stay. The veranda with its beatiful handmade table and chairs had an amazing view of the sea on one side and mountains on the other and was a lovely place to eat alfresco. We loved the area and found some lovely places to swim along the coast, and took many drives into the surounding mountains. We had a wonderful time thank you.

Nature plays, nature wins!

Lovely and tiny landhouse surrounded by nature. Emma and Maria were both so solicitous and showed us in many ways their hospitality. We would and will definitely come back one day. Thanks again!
