We stayed with Manolis for 7 nights and enjoyed every minute of it! The house is lovely with a comfy bed, great shower, well-equipped kitchen and good wi-fi. It's a great base to explore the south coast, Lasithi plateau, the vineyards and Heraklion. I'd recommend using Google maps
on your phone to help with navigation.
People who enjoy an early morning run can find a nice off-road route at the back of the farm.
We enjoyed going to the taverna for a beer early in the evening and met some nice people there.
Best of all though was our host Manolis. We had great fun chatting with him in the evening and with the other guests. We learnt a lot about Crete from him. We'll certainly go back to the farm next time we're in Crete.
