Dimitris and his wife are very welcoming hosts, and were helpful and friendly from the time we booked until the time we left the village. Dimitris answers messages very quickly, and gave us advice on how to get there (if you're not driving, Dimitris can get someone to collect you).

We arrived on a late flight, and were greeted with a welcome drink so we could relax before we unpacked. Our room was comfortable and immaculately clean, in a nicely restored old stone building. The room was one set above a pretty courtyard, with a covered area where you can relax with a drink, or eat breakfast. Cold water and fresh fruit were in the fridge (and raki on the table!) and fresh towels and bath products were provided. The bathroom looked new, and this and the bedroom are a fine size for a couple.

In the morning, there was a very generous breakfast laid out for us, with some local sweet and savoury treats that were all very tasty. Dimitris encouraged us not to rush, and it was good to have a host that gets you to slow down and enjoy your holiday!

The rooms here are a great option if you're flying to Chania, as Pazinos is very close to the airport, but it's a nice small village with a friendly taverna, and it's a short drive to beaches, and not far from Chania Town. There is so much to do in Crete that you could easily spend a while just exploring this area!

Thanks to Dimitris, Elpida, and Stavros
