This is a fantastic place in a great location. As we had never been to Crete before, we didn't realise the difference between the southern and northern parts of the island. In this village, there a great beaches, many wonderful places to eat, two supermarkets -- and all without very many tourists. On many occasions, and this was during summer, we were the only non-Greek people in a restaurant, which was great. The house is as everyone described -- it is simply wonderful to sit outside under the large tree, to eat one's meals, to read, to talk, to enjoy the quiet. And the house is huge - can easily accommodate a family of four. Highly recommended.
