After stays in the centre of Rethymnon and Chania, coming to Kostas’ little house was so restful and calming!
In the middle of orange orchards and shaded by a large avocado tree, the terrace on three sides of the house offers sun trap or cool shade. Inside, everything has been provided in quite a compact space. The large, well-appointed bathroom is adjacent but outside, which is great for privacy and, even in November, was not a problem to access.
Armenoi is quite a large village with a good choice of tavernas and a popular cafenion. There is a mini market, too. It is a great place to use as a base to explore the surrounding villages.
Kostas is a wonderful host and obviously takes great care and pride in looking after the house and his guests. Unfortunately for us he had another booking, otherwise we would have gladly stayed for the remainder of our time on Crete. We thoroughly recommend staying in the Little House.
