My family and I spent 11 days at Katerina's place in Aug 2021. Everything was lovely. Katerina really does everything to make her guests feel at home. I was really humbled by her hospitality. When we arrived at 3:00 am (!), the fridge was full of fruit, cheese and vegetables, there was some snacks. Just what we needed after the 3-hour flight and 1-hour drive from Heraklion airport.
The location of the house is amazing. Having such a beautiful view of the sea and landscape from one's patio made the stay really special. Having meals and just chilling out in the shaded patio with a spectactular view of the Mediterranean was marvellous, the breeze, the scents, the vibe... I simply loved it!
The house is very well-equipped. Noteworthy perks: sandwich toaster, Italian style espresso pot, modern stove and oven, for the beach: deck chairs, sun umbrella and beach ball game, cooling box. Everything you need is close by, i.e. beach, shops, bakery, Rethimno and well placed to explore the rest of the island, especially the northern, southern and western regions.
Katerina was full of great tips for day trips, excursions, restaurants, shopping and so on. We also had the privilege of attending a traditional Greek wedding at her reception hall, delicious food, great music, awesome experience. Thank you so much Katerina. I would love to return some other time.
