A special place

We just loved this very simple, clean and well appointed apartment in a quiet corner of Kissamos. The apartment is close to great beaches and the hosts were very easy to reach. We only stayed two nights but wished we had booked more time at the cottage.

Positives: Responsive host. Clean property. Outside of town and close enough to travel to other locations to visit. Good air con.Negatives: Parking in front of property isnt that easy due to the steep incline of the drive and size of car. A small but tall car like a jeep would be ok and would not risk scraping the underside of the bumper when leaving the property drive. Check that no building work is due to start during your stay as the joining building was undergoing building work which isn't relaxing, especially when it starts early - every day.

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Our stay in the house was great! Our host and his mother nearby were very friendly. The site from the terasse is great and we enjoyed our holydays very much. We hade a washing maschine a dishwasher, a mixer, toaster... Everything we needed. The appartement was very clean and restored wirh love and tast. No car noise only animal voices you can hear. The only thing we were astonished, that the three sleeping rooms are in three floors without a door. You hear each other. If this is no problem for you, you will enjoy your time here really. Kissamos ist a quite sweet place with a fine sand beach and ist very near.

Abbiamo soggiornato in questo alloggio durante le nostre vacanze estive a Creta e non possiamo che parlarne benissimo! La posizione è davvero perfetta: comoda per esplorare l’isola, vicina a spiagge meravigliose, ristoranti tipici e tutti i principali servizi.L’appartamento era bellissimo, curato nei dettagli, pulito e molto accogliente. Si vede che è stato arredato con gusto e attenzione, e ci siamo sentiti subito a casa.Un grande grazie anche all’host, sempre disponibile e attento a ogni nostra esigenza. Ci ha accolto con grande ospitalità e ci ha dato ottimi consigli su cosa visitare e dove mangiare.Un soggiorno perfetto sotto ogni punto di vista — torneremmo volentieri!

Ginas Cottage Kissamos

Alles rundum empfehlenswert. Die Einfahrt ist schmal und steil, absonsten ist alles bestens und gut ausgestattet. Sogar die Küchenmesser sind sehr scharf, was mir persönlich in Ferienwohnungen oft fehlt.Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Awesome House in the Hills

This is a beautiful newly renovated house with a very kind, attentive owner who is always available. The kitchen is fully stocked and we loved the espresso maker! The house is cool and has excellent air conditioning and Lefteris (owner) has done a thoughtful job in all renovations. There are two bathrooms with great water temperature and pressure. The house is 2km uphill from town so it’s important to have a car. The driveway is difficult to navigate (steep, bumpy, and small) but we did park at the top every time (or you can park on the road). The house was perfect for our family of four with comfortable beds. There is little privacy as the three levels are open concept but we still loved it. If you want a quiet place in the hills near the famous Balos Beach, I would absolutely recommend this lovely house. We would definitely book here again!
