A beautiful house, at a great location looked after by wonderful people. Just fantastic!
Simply an amazing deal, location and experience. We are a group of 4 families, 8 adults and 3 children and the house accommodated us easily. Personally, I'm from Greece (my mother is from Chania, dad from Aigio), but our group had Americans, French and Indians and we all agree that this place was great and we would do it again in a heartbeat. Here are some reasons why.
Our flight was scheduled to land at midnight. When the owner, Mr Manolis, and Jason offered to pick us up from the airport to show us the way I was a bit surprised, but we quickly accepted. Unfortunately we made them wait an extra hour because our rental car wasn't ready. And yet, at 1am, Mr Manolis and Jason were waiting for us with big smiles and truly excited to meet us. We get to the villa, we open the door and we see a table full of food and drinks … and the fridge was full of fresh fruit. I don't know what else we could have asked for, it was a great welcome.
Mr Manolis was kind enough to share his local, homemade olive oil with us. If you are lucky enough to try it, you will know why I'm making a big deal about this. He was also kind enough to let us pick the trees, which meant we had fresh figs and oranges straight from the garden. I can't describe to you how amazing the freshly squeezed orange juice was every morning. Mr Manolis also kept restocking our fridge with other fresh fruit that he would bring from the market and the day before we left he came over and cooked a meal for us. Mr Manolis wanted us to have a great experience and he made sure we did, we are truly thankful.
Make sure you go to Portego in the village Mochos for dinner (they have Cretan night every Wednesday night). Tell them that Jason sent you, the owner Konstantinos will appreciate it. If you a looking for an awesome, quiet, sandy beach try Sarantari beach. Don't miss out going to St Nicholas, the drive up the mountain to Zeus' birthplace cave is just awesome and if you want to do some fun watersports there are a couple of places really close by (e.g. Malia beach).
Don't think twice about it, this place is an amazing deal at a great location and you will have a great experience. Thank you again Mr. Manolis and Jason!
