I can't recommend Phaistos Villas more highly. George and Panos are excellent hosts and Sivas is the perfect little village to be on the edge of. Delicious restaurants within 10 minutes walk (I recommend Taverna Pezoula and Vafis), beaches very nearby. Matala is lots of fun and beautiful swimming over to the caves. Kommos beach is practically deserted and really beautiful swimming too.
The villas themselves are perfect. They have everything you could possibly need and are very comfortable as we being beautifully decorated. The pool is perfect and the decking at the top has the sun all day. Also recommend heading over to Heraklion and sailing with Manolis Apostolakis and his team over to Dia island - really beautiful.
We are longing to come back to Sivas and the villas asap! Thank you so much Panos and George!
