It's difficult to express how much we loved staying in this home for 7 amazing days. We arrived late because of flight delays but Kiki and Errikos greeted us with a tour of the home and big smiles to welcome us after a long day in airports. The hosts gave us a large basket of fruit, a well-stocked fridge with everything we needed for the first 2 days, including a bottle of wine, raki, and the best olive oil I’ve ever had!
The home is absolutely stunning with a warm décor that made it feel like our own home! It sits on the highest hill in Platanias with great restaurants only a few steps away shopping and beach are just down the hill. With large windows and bug screens in every room we let the fresh breeze in from the sea blow through the house in the evening, Barbequed on the very large grill, ate in the outdoor dining area and enjoyed the fantastic sunset! The hosts thought of everything, even a very large first aid kit (which I did use after a small incident at a rocky beach) the appliances were brand new and an amazing air conditioning system was in all of the rooms. A dedicated parking spot in front of the home makes it easy to take trips to the surrounding towns and beaches without worrying about where to park when you return.
Errikos and Kiki are always available if we wanted restaurant advice, the best beaches, shopping, literally anything. We spent a weekend morning with the hosts on a tour of the area, visiting the sights, seeing their fruit and olive orchards, and ate a lovely lunch together.
We will definitely be back to stay with Kiki and Errikos again! We made friends for a lifetime in Crete!
