Very nice mountain resort consisting of 20 new individual homes. Ours was very comfortable with multiple different outdoor spaces some with views of the Cretan Sea about 2 miles distant down the mountain. Mike was very helpful with some Wi-Fi issues and delivered starter coffee on our first morning. He also provided us with access to the laundry in the empty unit across the street as our unit did not have a laundry.
The salt water swimming pool and outdoor common barbecue and other spaces are very nice. The taverna in Kounali village is definitely worth a visit. If you are driving, you need to be comfortable with 15 to 20 minutes of winding mountain roads in all directions, including if you need to get to a market. The Milatos caves, the Malia Place archaeological site, Sissi and the local beaches are all worth a visit.
Mike was an excellent host. The private outdoor areas were incredible. The apartment was really great.
