An exceptional accommodation in a very good setting.
Our accommodation was one of the many traditional stone houses of this pretty village. We had a little welcome pack that included home-baked cake, fruit, Raki, bread and a little snack to go with our Raki. In the kitchen, they provide all the basics, including local olive oil and local tea. A quiet, tranquil spot at the foot of the mountains of West Crete with some goats grazing in the surrounding hills. In the village, there are a couple of very friendly taverns where they serve lovely local food and there is also a small craft/ art shop with a very friendly shop owner who speaks good English. The hosts are extremely friendly and helpful. We even had some Cretan speciality brought to us once for breakfast. The position of the accommodation is ideal for discovering West Crete. This picturesque village is in a very quiet location, overlooking the mountains, but only 5 minutes drive from shops and the main road halfway between Chania and Rethymnon. A very good spot for discovering Imbros gorge, Samaria Gorge, Balos lagunes, Rethimnon, and the gorges and monasteries south of Rethimnon.
We had a lovely week!
Thank you for your hospitality!!
