Our stay at Tula's was everything we could have wished for: the apartment was clean and well located on the edge of Kissamos and Tula went above and beyond to prove the proverbial greek hospitality. She gave us good advice on the good Tavernas in the village, and competed with them by surprising us with some of her own delicacies she would leave in the fridge for us.

Kissamos is an thriving and lively agricultural village and we really liked that it doesn't totally depend on mass tourism; there were some - of course - but life goes on even without and this is good. The places we visited and the food we ate were real, not some prop setup to entertain hordes of holiday consumers.
