BEAUTIFUL stay!
Nothing negative to say.
The area is around 30mins from Heraklion airport and you need a car.
It's up some very scary (if your a nervous passenger like me) mountainous roads. The village itself has a 1 or 2 places for food however no shops. The nearest place is a 7-10min drive away and those supermarkets are good for basics.
Just a little note that there is a microwave and a hob but not an oven.
We were greeted my Malvina and her husband at a very late hour so we fully appreciated them staying up so late to give us a quick show around and even come down to the village square to find us and guide us.
We had a warm meal waiting for us which was great. Some fruit, veg, coffee, water. There were toothpastes for kids, a medical cabinet with plenty of supplies, which truly came in handy when we needed pain relief and no shops.
The pool and outside area is the absolute dream, beautiful views and really clean. There is lots of lavender around the pool so if you have squeamish children they might drive you mad with all the wasps, but they only want the lavender!
We did notice that locals dogs do bark a lot, throughout the day and night so bring earplugs :) also there are the cicadas which are also extremely loud all day and most of the late hours too. But that's all around crete, from which we noticed. However these did not impact negatively on our stay just thought we would note it.
An absolutely beautiful stay we would definitely come back and have already recommended to a few people.
