This place was extremely clean, comfortable, private, and set in the most beautiful, wild scenery in the south of Crete. This hotel is set in the mountains. When I first discovered it on Airbnb I thought that it would be perhaps a few-minute drive or a longer hike from the house to one of the beaches nearby. It is true, that it takes only about 10 minutes to get to the beach from here, but to our surprise, the roads were quite narrow and steep in some places. Because of our lack of experience on such roads, accessing the villa seemed a bit scary at first, but the location was totally worth it. There are many beautiful beaches nearby. I highly recommend this place for anyone who is willing to take on an adventure and discover the beautiful, remote nature of the south of Crete. The mountains are truly spectacular in this area. The host was very friendly and helpful. We had some trouble with getting to the villa, but the host helped us right away. I would love to return here again.
Highly recommend visiting Triopetra beach which is only a 10-minute drive away from the villa Irena.
