Standing alone and commanding magnificent views over Souda Bay is Katerina’s. This traditionally built property is within easy walking distance of a small beach reached from the property via a private path through the vines. The house is accessed by car via a lane from Kalami.

Set between the Turkish fortress of Izeddin and the coastal road towards Kalives and Rethminon is Kalami with its beach bar/cafe and beach with a small jetty. Kalives, with its tavernas, beautiful sandy beach, shops and supermarket, is just 5 minutes drive away.

The main part of the property is the large penthouse which has two floors and extensive balconies from which to admire the sea view.
A Cretan archway partitions the spacious dining area from the living area and kitchen. (with Cretan fireplace and traditional Cretan furniture) There is a small WC with hand basin and a washing machine on this floor.

On the upper floor is a bathroom with shower and two bedrooms (one twin and one double both with air con).

Seasonal beach bar/cafe below the property and a traditional cafe 1/2 mile walk uphill.

The unobtrusive and charming owner, Anna, lives below the property.

Internal wooden staircase connects the living area to the bedrooms and bathroom.

This beautiful Cretan home offers much character and is ideal for couples. Due to the nature of the architecture, we would not recommend this property to anyone with mobility issues or to young children.
