My husband and I spent a wonderful four days at Mary's seaside cottage. It was perfect in every way. The setting on the hillside overlooking the sea is idyllic, and the cottage is comfortable, attractively furnished, and stocked with everything a guest could possibly desire. Mary went out of her way to make us feel at home, even inviting me to come to the main house and play her grand piano whenever I wanted. My husband and I enjoyed exploring the beautifully landscaped grounds, which include not only a pool and a tennis court but also a small Greek church, steps down to a deck overhanging the sea, and a 60-tree olive grove. Had the weather been better (it was unseasonably cool and wet for mid-April), we'd have spent time relaxing outdoors and enjoying the spectacular sea view from the many inviting tables and benches. Nevertheless our stay was unforgettable, and we heartily recommend Mary's cottage to anyone considering spending a few days in this lovely part of Crete.
