A beautiful retreat

We loved the beautiful Natura Cottages, and loved how peaceful it was. Our only wish was that the hammock had been a double so we could have lazed in the olive grove together! A perfect retreat, spotlessly clean, with everything we needed.

Tranquile place

It was all very well organized and a super place to stay. Perfect shower, perfect bed, super cosy cottage, though small, but you don’t need more. Very nice terrace (neighbours used it to go to the olive garden, passed our open house, which was a bit surprising as we really appreciate our privacy. As an extra I would mention that this is a collection of cottages, close to each other. Just to manage expectations. After all, Natura cottages is really a blessing, away from the hotels @ the coast. Keep up the good work, Lynn.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review Stefan, we would love to host again in the future! The patio is private indeed, I am really sorry I was not aware but someone was passing through… I wish you would’ve told us the time. Wishing you all the best Emma x

Gemütliche Unterkunft in ruhiger Lage mit allem, was man braucht. 1A Erholung

Lage und Einrichtung waren genau dass, was wir gesucht haben. Etwas zurück gezogen in einem kleinen Tal gelegen und ist man trotzdem in wenigen Minuten und an Strand und Tavernen.Die abendliche Ruhe zwischen den Olivenbäumen hat sehr gut getan. Hilfreiche Tips für Aufenthalt und Ausflüge gibt's vorher und und jederzeit vor Ort. Danke für eine schöne Zeit in einem tollen Cottage

Wonderful Cottage in Eastern Crete

We really loved all of this cottage! The interior was lovely. Sitting on the terrace in the evenings was always relaxing and calm. It is located in a quiet place at the exit of pefki gorge so it’s perfect to go hiking but it’s also easy to get to the harbour of Makri Gialos to get dinner there. The host Emma is very thoughtful and we had the feeling that we were always able to contact her with our issues.
