We didn't meet Ioannis, but Virginia welcomed us very warmly. We found a little git and a big plate full of fruit plus a little red cretan wine in the fridge for us. The house was very cleaned, is just renovated, modernally decorated and fully equipped (we found more then at home). We had acces to the whole first floor with a huge terrace. It was a pity to stay a few days and we could profite of it only a few. We found an electric expresso machine as we had asked if we could find a manner to make coffee there. There are board games for the evenings at home. If you need a beach umbrella you can borrow it. Virginia gave us lots of suggestions for our visits in Crete and even if we had already decided where to go, we could add some destinations to our tour. We asked for visiting the ethnological private little museum of the village and the maked it open for us! Virginia is a very gentle person and their baby with big eyes is nice and funny too, she offered us her biscuits before we left. We really enjoyed our stay in Magarikari and we would love to come back there!
