We LOVED our stay in this beautiful villa. The views, the house, the amenities, the location and the hospitality of our host were absolutely lovely. Our time here will be remembered as one of the most beautiufl we've ever had. The house has everything you need, is big and cozy. The manager of the property was always helpful even when I fell ill and needed medical attention, they guided me where to go and what to do. We even became friends with the most lovely cat I've ever encountered (I'm not a cat person). The stars at night are so clear you can see the milky way, the town is so small yet has its own shop and restaurants. it is located on the side of a hill on the way to an impressive gorge. From here you have less to an hour drive to 3 of the most impressive beaches in all crete, Elafonisi, Balos and Falassarna. The town of Kissamos is 16 min. drive and there you can find anything you need. We stayed for the whole month which improved the rental price. If you are a digital nomad like me and my gf, please make sure with the owner that they've installed a wifi repeater indoors since the connection was not good and we needed to compensate with a Vodafone sim card.
BTW, apart from the pool, there is a bbq grill and a pizza oven. Make sure to enjoy them too. ;-)
