Where to begin...for one, if you're expecting a 5 star royal princess treatment at this place...please don't taint the energy and look for some fancy princess resort to go to instead...IF you want an authentic, family-oriented, down to earth experience, then this is exactly your place. George and his wife Fofi (maybe misspelled) are your dream hosts for an authentic Cretean experience. The taverna they serve dinner is better than any taverna you will ever step foot in (ask Fofi for her Moussaka if she can make it, you wil die a million times over). I was traveling alone which didn't matter to the hosts, because they treat you like family. If you want a relaxing getaway where you want to enjoy good food, good (family made) wine, and good conversation...then you must book your stay here. Being in the middle of the island right off the main road makes it easy to do whatever your heart desires and have a great home base to come back to. The other reviews underestimate this experience, and if you're looking for genuine people...do not look further. I can not wait to come back. Thank you again George and Fofi, you will always be remembered by me.
