This is a very special house in a very special village. Annali and Odi have created a tranquil beautiful space with lots of thoughtful and creative touches. They are kind and considerate hosts who were always quick to answer questions and offer anything that was needed.
The terrace overlooking the sea was a wonderful place for us to sit and relax, chat, eat breakfast, lunch and have an early evening glass of wine. The sound of the waves and the constant shifting light over the sea was soothing and restful.
It takes just a few seconds to walk to the small beach under the house and the early morning swim might have been my favourite time of the day.
Mochlos itself is charming and unspoilt with several wonderful tavernas serving the best quality food that we can remember having in Crete (and we’ve been coming to Crete for over thirty years). Our favourite was probably Taverna Sophia which is family run and very friendly and serves wonderful traditional home cooked food - no need to look at the menu, just ask what’s fresh that day and they will take you to the kitchen to show you.
