If you are looking to 'get away from it all', this is a perfect place, a far cry from the package holiday coast:).. The host family is wonderful and welcoming, we were treated to some delicious traditional cooking by Zakharinia and fresh fruit and vegetables from the family garden. We ate out every day, there are several good tavernas to choose from, but the one that stood out for us was Jorgos's taverna Crete - it's a family business, they use produce from their farm, and we felt they gave us much more than just food and drink. It was our first time in Crete, and we fell in love with these kind, hospitable and hardworking people.
