The house was perfect for us for a 4 night stay in east Crete. It’s is in a very quiet area in the hills, away from the more crowded coastal towns and has lovely views. The pool (mostly the reason for booking) was lovely and clean and a great thing to have to cool off in the heat - especially for the children. The house itself was perfectly clean, with lots of cooking utensils and a bbq. If you don’t fancy cooking we definitely recommend the taverna just a short walk down the road where the menu is limited but very authentic and absolutely delicious! We didn’t meet the host but there was lots of good communication and recommendations. All in all a great stay!
