We liked the location directly at a quality beach a lot: Its magnificent. The house has good authentic structure, though the sanitary facility can be updated; the kitchen utensils are sufficient. The village Agios Ioannis is in fact remote: Still you will find some tourist there and the few locals are hospitable and kind. We enjoyed some dinners at the local Cafe Gialos: Their menu is tiny, but daily fresh. A mini market provides the essentials (but poor bread, no fresh fish). The reason why there is little tourism going on is the really rough, mostly uncoated road (shown in the pictures) leading from Kapetaniana down to the village Agios Ioannis. Follow Konstantis road map, because there is no traffic signs towards “Agios Ioannis“ village after Kapetaniana Village. Many locals have 4x4-vehicles (not all and most tourist we met came without), we came with a „VW Up“: Wrong decision for me. Like most car rental companies ours didn’t not insure such bad road conditions. We never left the village in our 5 nights stay (canceled wine tasting and hike in south Crete), because the road was too challenging for me to repeat it more than necessary. We made it back safely, but thrilled. Konstantis took a lot of care of us before (detailed map; direct communication; adopted to our wishes), once arrived Konstantis offered me to find somebody to drive the vehicle back, but that will not help, if you are stuck with your vehicle in the first place. We stayed the last week of September 2018 and had rain (making the return even more rough), brutal wind, heavy lightning and two days of fine sun. We still enjoyed the nature, the people and the food. We recommend the stay!
