As other commentators have already put it, there should be a 6 star category for this place. The apartment is located in Peri, a nice and quiet little town that is a good base to explore beaches such as red beach (Matala), Kommos, or Kalamaki (within a 20 minute drive) as well as for hiking activities, e.g. Aggiofarango gorge, or to visit ancient sites such as Phaistos. The next larger town is Mires were you find lots of dining options and supermarkets within a 5 minute radius. The apartment is brand new and Afroditi put a lot of thought into the details, not only regarding the unique design and technology (two TVs that we never used) but also practical details such as the kitchen equipment, providing a washing machine, or mosquito nets in front of every window. We cooked frequently and weren't missing a thing. The view is amazing. The best part was the kindness of Afroditi and her whole family, including Lucy the dog. Her mom and dad live upstairs, were always there when we needed them but also respected our privacy. Each day we were greeted with new delicacies from their own production such as jam, raisins, grapes, olives, cookies, oil or raki or homemade pastries. On the last day we were invited into their home and received an amazing traditional dinner. We only briefly mentioned that we are vegan and the whole family put a lot of thought into providing traditional dishes that we could eat. Even on our departure day we couldn't leave without some cookies. Overall it was the best stay by far that we had on the island and you should not hesitate to book here. We will come back for sure!
