The Agapi Holiday House in Sivas, Crete, was everything we expected and more. Agapi and Manolis were there when we arrived in the middle of a rainstorm and we really enjoyed meeting them. They went out of there way to welcome us and because of the rain, drove ahead of us to Heraklion airport to pick up our niece. We so appreciated this act of kindness. The renovated stone house was beautiful. It was warm and cosy as the evenings in March were chilly. The house was very well equipped with comfortable beds, lovely linens and everything we needed to cook our own meals. We loved all the local foods that Agapi and Manolis left for us. The olives, wine, raki, capers and oranges were all delicious. We had freshly squeezed orange juice for breakfast every morning! Staying in the village of Sivas was just what we wanted. Even in the short time we were there, we felt very welcome and part of the community. It was easy for us to explore the southern part of Crete from our base in Sivas. Coffee in the sunshine on the balcony was a highlight for us every morning. I didn't want to leave and would love to go back.
Thank you, Agapi and Manolis, for making our stay in Crete so special.
