This house is amazing, and Aris is a perfect host! We stayed for two weeks; we are two families vacationing together, four adults, four children. We spent most days taking day trips to various parts of Crete, which is incredibly diverse geographically. We saw ruins, incredible caves, beautiful beaches, phenomenal gorges, picuresque villages, and so forth. Each day was a new adventure, with incredible meals at tavernas around the area. Then, each morning and each evening, we all got into the beautiful pool to swim and exercise, to play, and to watch the incredible sunsets. It was such an incredible vacation, and Aris' hospitality, suggestions for what to do, and phenomenal house were what made it possible. We would come back in a heartbeat and very strongly recommend this rental!
