Despina's flat has a spectacular view over this mountainous, authentic Cretan landscape. If you like to stay in a small village with no other tourists around it's perfect. You can make tours by foot in all directions from this place: Walk small paths up the hills, meet sheeps and goats everywhere, watch birds of prey, listen to the owl in the night...
Kandanos is an easy walk away (ten to fifteen minutes by foot) and has fantastic food. Most of the ingredients used for the dishes offered in the tavernas near the village square are of local origin.
We stayed at Zoe's house for 5 nights and left very relaxed. The house is very comfortable and has everything one might need.
We enjoyed the friendliness and hospitality of Despina and her husband and were surprised by one of the best Chorta dishes, fresh oranges, tomatoes... - Thank you!
