Cosy place with friendly host

Pros: I really enjoyed my stay at this place, it’s located above the Kolimvari and so you can have great view on the sunrise, then have a friendly chat with your host, get real Greek coffee, cool down in the pool and then go out to enjoy the beauty of Crete.

Cons: Hard to find something :-)

Pros: This is the most relaxing place we stayed at on our visit. It is in a quiet and peaceful area with amazing views. Mary is the most kind and welcoming host, always available if needed but not imposing on your privacy. The pool was stunning as its all natural with no chemicals. The authentic cretan house has been beautifully renovated.We loved this place so much and hope to return. Thank you Mary!

Peace and tranquility perfection!

Pros: This was not just a stay, this was a whole wonderful experience of staying in a lovingly restored typical Cretan house in a typical Cretan village where the roads are too narrow to get a car down. Every part of the renovation has been sympathetically restored with high quality materials. It has charm in abundance!! Mary was so sweet and caring for our very best experience, even making us a breakfast on our last morning which was quite a surprise.

Cons: For most people there would be absolutely nothing not to like but I have mobility issues so getting up the few stairs without a banister into the courtyard was a bit tricky. (But absolutely worth the effort). If staying again I would ask for the downstairs room that is next to the pool so that you only have to get up into the courtyard on arrival and when leaving the premises.
