Although the accommodation is quite charming and decently furnished, and the owners were very welcoming, but unfortunately the place didn’t meet our expectations nor match the description made.
-The accommodation is not an “entire house” but consists of the ground floor of a traditional Cretan house.
- Privacy is limited. Access to the upper story (ie owners vacation house) is made by the accommodation’s terrace (sole outdoor area). Be mindful, the house sits in an old Cretan village, expect close proximity with all the neighbors.
-The owners were present during our (cancelled) stay
-There is no parking spot on the premises (free parking is available in the village, about 100m away from the accommodation)
-The master bedroom lacks door (or curtains) with proximity to the bathroom which made intimacy very limited as we were 3 travelers. A couple and a teenager.
Also it has only a small hopper window you can’t barely open which make the room dabby and the air thick.
- Arguably, the great view is a limited line of sight to the sea not the one indicated in the ad
