The location is remote and peaceful where we can fully unwind and relax, yet it is close to beautiful beaches (which was our main reason for exploring the South West Crete) and to convenient amenities (within 5-10 minutes drive), such as groceries, restaurants and pharmacy. Due to its location, we could hear the sound of crickets, and my son loved to explore the surrounding nature and fed the horses, geese and fishes. The house had everything we need to feel home, where we could cook when we wanted to, run laundries, or relax in or by the swimming pool in the afternoon after a hot and tiring journey. At night, the natural cool breeze entered into the house when we opened the window, which was a nice break after 32-36C heat during the day time.
On our arrival, Nikos was very welcoming where he left us wine, cheese, bread, jam and others, which was very nice, and responded to all our queries during our staying. His father was also nice and gave us grapes and Raki, that we enjoyed it very much.
