This place is sublime - the perfect quiet getaway with breathtaking views and comfortable amenities. If I were a writer this is where I'd want to hide away to write my novel! The staff is wonderful and made us feel so welcome. We chose to stay here due its accessibility to the Samaria Gorge and the sea. The local taverna in Moni is about a ~2 minute walk away and serves outstanding homemade traditional Cretan food, and the adorable beachside town Sougia is about a ~5 minute drive away (Note to future guests: the hike to Lissos is worth it!!). Cannot recommend this place enough!! I hope we are lucky enough to return here one day.
