Amazing place and extremely kind hosts. We felt that we were sincerely welcomed. Everything is brand new and tastefully decorated. The kitchen has everything that you might need and the coffee that they provide is very good quality (I am picky with my coffee so this is a big compliment). This tells you that the hosts are sincere in their wishes for the guests to feel comfortable and very well taken care of. The little patio is a big plus. We enjoyed our breakfasts there. The location is away from the center so it is very quiet and you can feel the local energy. No tourists. Yet, it is only a short drive away from the center. We walked there (cca. 20 min walk). You park right in front of the house and you dont have to worry about the heavy traffic in downtown during the high season. It made it really easy for us to go to other places in Crete without being stuck in traffic every day. We loved our experience at the Violin House!
