Konstantis's place really is in a dream location right next to the sea in a peaceful, remote village. We loved hearing the sea from the terrace and house and eating out at the nearby friendly Cavo Ponta taverna. It was still hot when we were there at the end of August so we appreciated the air con to cool the bedrooms down and we spent all day swimming and snorkelling in the crystal blue water. If you want to get away from it all (although the wifi and mobile signal were good!) then this is definitely the place for you. Konstantis was the perfect host even meeting us at a local supermarket in Heraklion and giving us a lovely present of local specialties. It's worth taking supplies with you but the local store in Ai Giannis was good for basics (crisps, beer, tomatoes etc). The drive from Heraklion is beautiful and though the last few kilometres are steep and rough we took it slowly in a small hire car without any problems.
