What a hidden wonder! We are so glad we decided to venture off the beaten path and stay in a small village. Pigi is perfect. Now this is a tiny village- only 2 bakeries, a small market, Zorba’s restaurant, a butcher shop, a taverna (bar) and a pharmacy that closes at 2pm daily. So if you’re expecting all the luxuries of a big city, this isn’t it. For us, it was exactly what we wanted. Peace and quiet. And we took an amazing walk 1.7 miles to the Rethymno beach, so lovely!
Pavlos and his hospitality were also perfect. He arranged to pick us up from the ferry port, which was very kind and so helpful since we arrived around 7pm. His wife left us some delicious home-baked pastries!
The home had everything we needed. WiFi worked perfectly. We had trouble working the tv and Pavlos was quick to fix that for us. He replied fast to any questions we had.
I highly recommend this home to anyone considering staying in that area. Thank you Pavlos!
