Nikos was a welcoming host. My husband and I stayed for four nights (a perfect amount of time). We hired a car and drove down from Heraklion to Ierapetra (stopping at a winery along the way — recommended!). Nikos was friendly and showed us around the property. He was communicative / available and gave good recommendations about places to eat and drink. The property was great for swimming / sun bathing, but it was also a short drive to lovely beaches and stunning views. Highly recommended!
