This place is very modern and clean. We were thankful to have such helpful hosts. Despina bought us some yummy baked stuff and a watermelon. Rodanthi was amazingly quick at responding to my questions. I actually communicated with her a lot, as I required a hospital visit during my stay. She was always helpful. The property was lovely and very welcoming. The house had everything you could want: washer, iron, olive oil, vinegar and salt and pepper, coffee maker and the nicest shower I have ever had. This shower is so much better than the one in my own home. Nice, hot water too. The area of Amoudara is a 5-6 minute car drive from Agios Nikolaos. It appears to be an “up and coming” popular tourist spot, but, for now, it was very peaceful and quiet. We loved the Amoudara Beach with the hotel across the street the most. The town of Agios Nikolaos is very nice, albeit a bit touristy. Overall our stay in Amoudara was wonderful. You will need a car to stay at this villa. It is close, but requires a car. We wished we had another week there. Thanks Rodanthi and Despina. If we return to Crete, we will be back.
