We traveled to Crete before the summer season (March) and stayed in Vaggelis' house overlooking the sea. It was clean and quiet and very cozy. Vaggelis was very helpful by meeting us in the closest town and guided us to the house, since it is very remote. His family came and provided us with a traditional Greek meal. He was available by phone and asked if we needed anything. This is the perfect place if you want to get away from life. It's calm and quiet--magical!
