This house is absolutely outstanding on all levels. It’s new, clean and has all of the amenities you could hope for and more. Communication and check-in were both smooth and efficient throughout. Baso had left us little treats such as chocolates, pastries and bottled water, and the house offers everything you could need such as complimentary toiletries, extra bedding, a hairdryer, all cleaning materials and even full sewing and first aid kits. Everything is new, including the oven, washing machine and furniture. The beds are super comfy and the bathroom is amazing - the best we have experienced on our many trips to Greece. The view of the mountains from the huge terrace is jaw-dropping. The houses sits on the edge of a town to the South of the Island, which has a couple of restaurants and several supermarkets and bakeries. It’s 40 minutes by car from Heraklion, Agia Gallini and Matala, and the larger town of Moires is a short drive away. There are several Wineries in the locality and the archaeological sites of Gortynas and Festos are also a short drive away, with Knossos around a 30 minute drive. Over the mountains are some of the most amazing beaches you’ll find in Greece. If you’re looking for a luxury hub from which to explore the island, look no further!
