Perfect stay at a perfect property

The Anomemili rental is on a beautiful estate with a view of the ocean. It was comfortable, the hosts were caring and fixed anything that needed fixing right away. I was welcomed by Lefetris and Despina with cookies and they checked in periodically to see I had no problems. The place itself is immaculate with a weekly cleaner. The grounds are a delight. In short, I will probably go back because it was a perfect place.

Didn't want to leave

Such a beautiful property perfect for a relaxing holiday away. Lefteris was a wonderful host, it was great to have a chat with him here and there and sample some fruit from his orchard on site. The veranda is gorgeous with a nice view of the sea perfect for having your meals or just hanging out, with the wind it's cool almost all day. The rooms inside are simple but have everything you need - do be aware that there are stairs going into each room. This property is most ideal for people looking to relax in a serene environment away from the usual tourist sites, you definitely need a car to get around. That being said, Sitia is less than 10 min away, it's quite charming with a nice promenade full of bars and restaurants. The only thing I regret is that I didn't stay here longer.

Cretan Hospitality

Cretan hospitality is legendary, and a stay in the windmill is a great way to experience it. Everyone in the family welcomed me, and with quiet kindness made sure I had a good time. Agia Fotia is well situated as a base to explore the easternmost part of Crete, which is full of history and wild beauty. Neaby Sitia provides all the necessaries, together with an excellent little archeological museum and a lively harbor area. The windmill itself is charmingly furnished and fully equipped, and has an ample veranda that is shaded almost all day long. Two imporant notes: (1) a car is a must; and (2) the windmill may not be suitable for persons with reduced mobility or visual impairment. It is on 4 levels, with the master bedroom and the single bathroom separated by 3-1/2 flights of spiral stone staircases, with no railings. However, the second bedroom and the bathroom are on the same level with only two steps up to the level of the kitchen and veranda, Highly recommended.
