The cottages are around a lush yard in the middle of an olive grove with views of the sea. We had a balcony and a shady terrace and ate outside. It was very quiete and a 10 min drive from a gorgeous secluded beach. Georgia and her husband Thomas were very welcoming offering some of their olive oil and bread. They were very helpful and recommended outings and local tips. The cottage was cleaned every couple of days and Georgia was always ready to help with anything. We felt at home and were sad to leave. I would definitely recommend for an authentic yet comfortable Cretan experience.
