This is a treasure not to be missed! We have had two wonderful weeks at Renáta’s place in Gavalochori and have never experienced such great hospitality ever before. The hospitality and care in particular made this a holiday never to be forgotten - we cannot thank you enough, beautiful Koula! The house is located just a short stroll from the village square, has lovely wrap-around terraces, a wonderful, quiet garden with flowers, lemon trees and singing birds, as well as a decent size pool. The apartments are beautifully decorated and have all the equipment you could think of needing when on holiday, plus a little more. Gavalochori is the perfect starting point for exploring Crete and has a selection of good tavernas, mini markets and sights like the local museum, the old olive mill, and the Venetian wells. It is a village with traditional architecture and an atmosphere you would simply love. Just go there.
