Oh my goodness, I don’t know where do I start? Our hosts (Kostas and the Etouri team, and the owners Mrs. Goya and Mr. Alex) were absolutely wonderful; their home a dream.
Upon arrival (late on Saturday night, if I may add) we were greeted in person at the home with warm smiles and characteristic Cretan hospitality. Mrs. Goya kindly shopped for us upon arrival, so we had some food and drink on the first day. She even bought us a cake to help celebrate my parents wedding anniversary and my husband’s birthday. Her equally thoughtful husband Alex shared his exquisite Georgian wine with us as well as his freshly pressed olive oil, straight from his crop.
Their home is a perfect place to stay in Chania. It is quiet with breathtaking views and a great outdoor space to enjoy them. The location is also excellent, with the home only short (easy) 10-minute drive into town. Despite the close location to town you feel like you’re a million miles away.
The house was also very clean, spacious and well equipped. We were easily able to cook a number of meals during our stay with the provided cookware and nice charcoal grill. Our hosts thought of every possible item in this rental. A mid-week turnaround service was also provided where all linens were changed, and the house was cleaned from top to bottom. WOW! This five star service was followed by a heartwarming gesture when we offered fresh (still warm) bougatas to try. YUM and thank you!!
I truly hope we’ll be back in the not to so distant future. I cannot recommend Casa Di Goya enough and the services of the Etouri team.
What are you waiting for … go right ahead and book. You won’t regret it!
