You won't find a better place to stay on Crete. The villa is looking over the village of Asi Gonia up in the mountains. You'll enjoy beautiful landscapes, silence and the pure starry sky at night.
The villa is cozy, new, incredibly clean and stylish. Very comfortable outdoor area (ideal for a breakfast with a view). The house has everything you need even a fireplace that is an excellent addition to evenings.
It's half an hour drive from the northern beaches and an hour drive from the southern ones, which locals love the most. The temperature is about 5-7 degrees lower than on the coast, which is a good thing in the daytime, but make sure to pack some sweater for the evenings. And visit the local taverns and cafes of Asi Gonia to enjoy the flavour of local life.
Many thanks to Manousos (the owner of the house) and his aunt Anna for the warm welcome and hospitality. They helped us with everything we needed and fed us for ten days with local cheeses, jams, pastries (which Anna is doing at her own production).
This is our best experience with Airbnb so far. Thank you.
