I can barely put into words how wonderful my stay was! Stella arranged for a taxi to pick me and my dog up at the airport. When I arrived at her place, I received a warm welcome from Manolis, Stella's dad, a very kind man with a big heart. He had filled the refrigerator with many Greek, delicious snacks, including fresh vegetables, cheese, homemade wine, olive oil, among many other things. The apartment has a small, outdoor area where you can enjoy the incredible view of the mountains and your morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. I was working most of the time and the place was equipped with everything I needed for my 3-week stay. The Wi-Fi connection was strong enough for me to have Zoom meetings without any problems. The apartment is located within walking distance to several grocery stores and cafes/tavernas to grab something to eat. The village is small and quiet but has stunning views of the mountains. Renting a car is the best way to get around but taking the bus is also an easy option to get to Heraklion. Communication with Stella was always very easy and fast. My favorite part of my stay was getting to know Manolis and Stella. Their generosity and hospitality is out of this world and this experience is one that I will savor for the rest of my life.
