A very relaxing peaceful stay

We had a lovely stay at this quiet and peaceful traditional house. It was ideally located for us to explore Crete further, and very close to walk to the beach, which was an added bonus. The house is very well stocked with everything you could possibly need, and the Owners were very kind, helpful and hospitable. It would be ideal for a couple who want peace and space, and also a small family. We shall return.

Casa splendida in ottima posizione

Abitazione molto bella, dotata di tanti confort, ampia, molto confortevole, ben tenuta e con mobilio di buon gusto. Noi abbiamo soggiornato lì 5 giorni in 7 persone, di cui 3 adulti e 4 ragazzi. Abbiamo apprezzato moltissimo la gentilezza e disponibilità dei proprietari, che ci hanno fatto trovare al nostro arrivo una loro pietanza tipica, cucinata per noi, oltre ad un grande cesto di frutta. In cucina sono poi presenti molti accessori e tanti ingredienti (sale, pepe, olio, zucchero, farina, caffè, the, ecc...). Climatizzatori in ogni stanza. Ampio giardino con barbecue. Posizione tranquilla, di facile accesso alla spiaggia di ciottoli e sabbia (da casa si sente il rumore delle onde del mare), vicina comunque a paesi limitrofi con supermarket e ristoranti. Chania a circa 20 minuti di auto. Ringraziamo Georgious ancora per l’ospitalità.

The perfect place to descober the wonderful beaches and landscape of Chania

The house is very confortable, with all the the things you could need and George and Eva are the best hots you can imagine. When we arrived they were waiting for us with a delicious mousaka and the fridge and the house were full of food and supplies. Creta is a wonderful land with wonderful people, this has been our second holidays here and that is for sure that we'll retorn. George and Eva thanks for everything!

A recommander

La location est conforme à la description. Nous avons été accueilli de façon extrêmement conviviale par son propriétaire Giorgios : plein de bonnes choses à manger à notre disposition, une discussion chaleureuse en arrivant, une visite à Chania. Giorgios est très attaché à son île et désire que notre séjour nous laisse une bonne impression. A partir de midi la terrasse étant à l'ombre, nous avons pu prendre tous nos repas dehors et grâce au vent marin, la chaleur a toujours été supportable. La plage, toute proche est une plage de galets, mais nous avons aussi pu profiter de la piscine du centre tout proche. Ayant louer une voiture, nous avons pu faire beaucoup de visites tout autour (Samaria, Elafonissi, Balos, ...). Au final, une impression tout à fait positive. Merci encore à Giorgios. Geneviève
