Michalis and Katerina's place is surrounded by olive groves, citrus and pomegranate trees. Apart from the apartment downstairs which we expected, it is secluded and private. The views to the sea and the hills are second to none and the beach within easy walking distance. The nearest little village with a shop and a tavern, Agathias, is also an easy walk.
The apartment is well-equipped if in need of some modernisation. Our hosts were not in Palekastro but were quickly responsive to communication via AirBnB. As a final touch, we were left a generous welcome basket of wine, raki, local honey and other goodies. We would happily stay here again if we return to Palekastro (which we very much hope we will!).
