Had a family reunion here with 5 adults, 5 children (ages 9-4). This place was fantastic. We spent quite a lot of time exploring Crete (Samaria Gorge, Elafonisi Beach etc.) so this was a perfect central spot with a pool for the kids to relax in after a long day and a gorgeous patio for the adults after the kids were in bed. Manolis was an amazing host and we received thoughtful little presents through our stay including ice creams for the kids from the cafe out front (which we would definitely recommend for delicious Greek food!). The layout is definitely a little different, so you do need to be comfortable with all the rooms exiting to the outside instead of into the common area, but our 4 year old seemed okay once she got a hang of the stairs. This truly felt like an authentic place to stay in Crete and is even more beautiful than the pictures!
