The house is absolutely amazing, and Aris is a great host! The location is great, you can easily reach pretty much any corner of the island, and solitary enough that you don't rub elbows with the neighbors (you don't have neighbors close to the house). Great views from the pool - you can see a panorama of the sea and the mountains; and lounging by the pool is one of the best things you can do while staying here. There is a dishwasher and an automatic laundry dryer which will make your life so much easier and comfortable. The bedrooms have outside shutters so if you plan to sleep late (on the really comfortable mattresses) you won't see a spot of light if you close them; or you can leave them open and enjoy the Cretan sun. If you enjoy a colder temperature in the house, all the AC units are more than capable of cooling the air.
This is one on our top stays, if we ever come back to Crete we'll definitely stay here!
