Enjoy summer & winter holidays by the countryside in South Crete and in a cottage house dating back to 1900. The two floor property is caracterized traditional & preserved by the ministry of environement and built from wood & stone. It is a fine example of Cretan rural architecture, was entirely renovated and transformed into a holiday house offering its guests all conveniences that guarantying a relaxing and comfortable lodging. The guest house is located in the heart of the picturesque village of Listaros and for its renovation the basic construction materials of the area are used - wood and stone. The original plain cubic form was maintained in order to preserve the “character” of a typical cottage of the broader region and Listaros. At the same time, a lot of attention was paid to its equipment. The house is fully equipped with all necessary amenities and utensils and its first floor balcony offers a nice view to the village. Due to its characterization and to luck of lighting it has an open plan 'loft style' construction and therefore its two floors offer no sound isolation.
Listaros lies at the edge of the western point of mount Asterousia. The village with the magnificent view offers the last passage from Mesara Plain to the Asterousia mountain and the south coast and Libyan sea. Records reveal that the village exists since 1577.

Pas terrible, mal équipé, 4 couchages dans la même pièce, terrasse partagée avec gîte mitoyen

Très déçu, on s'attendait à un gîte avec au moins une chambre, en fait 2 lits dans le séjour (pas de lit double), un mini canapé dans la cuisine, un dans la mezzanine surchauffée. Une terrasse accessible via le séjour, escalier, mezzanine, pratiquement commune avec le gîte mitoyen (Bonjour la tranquillité). Mal équipé pour cuisiner, pas de grille pain, pas de cafetière, etc. TV cathodique, pas de lecteur DVD.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Mar 2020
Dear guests, I acknowledge with thanks your comments and feel sorry that our guesthouse 2 did not meet with your expectations Allow me however, since future guests may also read your remarks, to point out that it is clear in our add (description and photos) that the house is offered for the accommodation of three persons in single beds. Furthermore the sofa bed with mattress of 1,90m X 0,75 covers the required specifications of a single bed and allow us to avoid the use of a folding or camp bed in cases of four member families like yours. As far as the amenities are concerned we take under consideration your comments in order to ameliorate each time our services. We do however provide a press coffee/tea maker and Electric water Kettle that covers the need of an electric coffee machine and we believed that the Grill of the oven could also replace many appliances. Last but not least, due to its characterization we were not only obliged but also willing to respect and preserve the old representation and customs of the house and Listaros village of less than 30 inhabitants. The gathering in the yards/balconies, squares and even on the streets is a piece of everyday’s life in the village, which was also appreciated by our visitors. We have now to consider and find a way to protect our future guests who prefer more isolation.
