About the host

Hosted by lefteris verykakis

I’m from Crete and love sharing the island’s beauty, traditions, and hidden gems with my guests. Hosting lets me meet amazing people from around the world and help them experience the real Crete — its nature, food, and warm hospitality. My goal is for you to feel at home and leave with unforgettable memories

Why they chose this property

I chose this neighborhood because it captures the true spirit of Crete — peaceful, authentic, and surrounded by natural beauty. The village of Kallergiana is quiet and friendly, with stunning views of both the sea and mountains. I love the fresh air, the sound of birds in the morning, and the scent of herbs in the breeze. It’s close enough to famous beaches like Balos and Elafonissi, yet far from the crowds, so you can truly relax. What I enjoy most is the slower pace of life here — it feels like time stands still, letting you enjoy every moment.

What makes this property unique

This stone-built traditional home in the quiet village of Kallergiana, Kissamos (Chania) offers the perfect blend of authenticity and comfort. It features a private courtyard, ideal for relaxing in complete peace, while being just a short drive from some of Crete’s most beautiful beaches. Set in a serene location, it’s the ideal base to enjoy both the tranquility of village life and the stunning coastline of Western Crete.
