Our family had a great experience at Kostas’ house. It’s a chance for everybody to live an authentic Cretan life - in the very center of a village (but close to the sea!), with a cafe, bakery, butcher and restaurant just a few steps away. The house has everything you need for life. The kitchen is fully equipped, but why don’t you go to a neighboring taverna Drosostalia - the food tastes great, the portions are huge, and it is not expensive at all.
Having a breakfast on a terrace overlooking the garden was a great start of every day on Crete. We were getting freshly baked bread from the bakery across the road, and Kostas took care of the tea and coffee in the house.
The beaches are just a few minutes away by car. Having a car is essential to stay in Armenoi.
We had no issues whatsoever and enjoyed a perfect week at this house. We can especially recommend it for families with children. This is our fourth visit on Crete and this stay was the most comfortable so far.
