About this property
Small country house with garden and arbor next to 2 wonderful beaches
The apartment is ideal for an individual and independent vacation in South Crete.
Children are very welcome. A toddler bed, toys, and plenty of room to play are available.
The apartment consists of 2 rooms:
1 very large living room with 2 beds + kitchen (ceiling fan)
1 bedroom with double bed + bathroom (air conditioning or fan)
The large outdoor area with a beautiful garden and vine arbor also includes 2 seats, whereby the large seat is located under the canopy; protected from the sun and wind.
The two deck chairs invite you to relax.
There are also: WiFi, washing machine and a parking space directly in front of the house.
Location and surroundings:
The holiday home is in a quiet location on the outskirts of Pitsidias, a still typical Cretan village with gentle tourism. The original local dream factory has been part of this for years. Breakfast, starters (mezedes) cakes are simply delicious. Every now and then there is a party. The picturesque village square with cafes, taverns and small shops is only 2-3 minutes / on foot. You can regularly enjoy concerts, groovy rock music and traditional Greek music with dancers here. Shops in the village: meat and delicacies, fresh bread, vegetables and food. At the Baecker on the road to Matala, you will now also find an ATM. And a bit further a dentist and a pharmacy with a nice selection of cosmetic products.
3 wonderful beaches in the area:
You can reach the como beach in just under 3km by car or via a beautiful one!Walk 20min / on foot.
You can reach the legendary bathing bay of Matala by car or bus / 4km.
You will find the Redbeach in 20min / on foot from Matala.
Getting there:
By rental car, regular bus KTEL
Taxi pick-up service 65EUR from Heraklion airport (I can organize it for you)
