This airbnb was the best I have ever stayed at. the hosts, Poppy and Basilis, are remarkable people; both welcoming, generous and interesting.
Upon arrival, Basilis guided us to our house where we found Poppy putting the final touches to the rooms. The house was stunning: natural brickwork, well equipped kitchen, clean throughout, stylish decor.
When installed, we were presented with a large portion of freshly baked (and rather delicious) chocolate cake and some wild sea vegetables that Poppy had just collected.
One of the highlights of our two week stay in Crete was accompanying Poppy on her foraging trips, in which we harvested wild asparagus, fennel, golden thistle and many more wild foods that would cost a fortune in high end restaurants.
The place is located close to lots of great places to visit (balos, falassarna, milia, biolea oliveo oil factory etc etc so we never got bored. There are plenty of places to buy groceries and there's a lovely man called Claudio who sells fish from his van, just seconds away from the front door.
We will certainly be returning to this airbnb one day and cannot recommend it enough. You must stay here!
