Manolis is the perfect host; like many Cretans he has perfect manners, and nothing is too much trouble.
You can have as much or as little contact with him and his family next door as you wish.
He turned out after 11pm to find us when we got lost in the dark, invited us to his favourite Sunday night out, and you can eat breakfast on his balcony.
And you get a supply of fresh bread and vegetables on the house and other little gifts.
Exceptional value; you should go!
