Despoina was such a wonderful host! She was very communicative and had thought of everything and more before we arrived. Her home is very clean & also well decorated! I loved her kitchen set up and her bathroom tiles :). Also- she has outside shades that pull down to make the place completely dark. Perfection for sleeping in!
She made sure to show us where everything was room by room, which was very helpful. She also had pre-prepared a list of emergency contacts/important places around Crete. She even had written directions on how to use her washer! So thorough :). The best part- she had Raki (my husband loved that), bomb doughnuts! (He loved those more), as well as fruit, water, sparkling water & various staples she said were free rein (mountain tea, honey, the crispy bread, jam).
Within walking distance are- an organic market, a few restaurants & a bakery/coffee place. The beach is also only a two minute walk away.
