Sunset aficionados – here’s your destination. A sweet and lovingly designed holiday location, literally on the beach, minimalistic and practical with everything you’ll need – and a perfect terrace for watching the sea come and go and ultimate sunsets. A real pieds dans l’eau! Gioula and Nikos and their perfectly English speaking aid Maria are kind and caring and as xenophile as can be, offering homemade cake and kaltzounia, they always showed maximum generosity and quick response. We enjoyed the small talks with our neighbors in the identical apartment on the left and the lively atmosphere of the taverna next door on the right, the comfort of being served by their waiters on our terrace. We never felt disturbed. In the sleeping room in the back of the house we didn’t notice any noise except for the soporific buzz from the A/C. The beach in front is more or less natural with some seaweed. But 200 meters on left hand (just behind the adjacent little harbor from where a boat offers daily round trips to Balos Beach/Gramvousa plus private yacht tours) is the perfectly maintained nice and familiar Tiny Beach, with umbrellas and loungers (10 Euro for two) and drinks/snacks service – and never crowded, other than the Falasarna main beaches. A real insider tip.
We enjoyed every minute of our stay even though there’s not much to see or to do except for relaxing, swimming, reading, learning Greek, enjoying fried anchovies and a sip of wine. You’ll need a car if you fancy sightseeing. Plenty of water sports you‘ll find at the Falasarna main beaches, some two or three km away.
Thanks a lot, Gioula, Nikos and Maria, for ten unforgettable days.
