We visited Crete week 42 in October when an unexpectedly violent storm ravaged the island and made the dream of a beach holiday impossible. Fortunately, Anna's house is a completely fantastic place where you literally live on the 'water' as if you were on a boat. It gives a very special atmosphere to experience the forces of nature with the waves of the sea and the changing spaces of the sky up close, when you sit and enjoy the view from the house's cozy living room. We managed a single beautiful dip from the stairs that go from the courtyard and headed to the water train, which gives extra value when the waves are calmer than the week we stayed at Anna's house ... a highly recommended experience.
Anna is a very professional and incredibly helpful host - even before arrival she was ahead of the game when she contacted us and arranged transport from the airport to the house.
Anna met us personally on arrival and offered us both fresh fruit, wine and other Cretan specialties in the fridge - very delicious and thoughtful. The hospitality continued throughout the holiday; Anna responded quickly to any question we asked and made good recommendations for places to visit and restaurants that were perfect for our family etc. The desire to help and serve us to have the best vacation was a very touching experience and we are very grateful.
We recommend Anna and her beautiful house to everyone who appreciates hospitality and wants to live beautifully and very close to the sea with a short distance to Chania city. Thank you for making a huge priceless difference to our family.
A big and heartfelt thank you from all 6 of us
