We loved our stay at Villa Lilly in Drakona. It is a special place and the host Giorges is very kind, responsive and helpful. House is super clean, everything thought out, and if we asked about anything, the host responded right away. We had some local treats left for us. Olive oil, wine, raki, all local. The animals in the farm, mountains, olive trees, fruit trees— brings one closer to what is essential and simple in life. We had lemons from the garden, eggs from the chickens. Drakona is a quiet village and very close to Spilia village— where is more lively with great local taverns. Also supermarket is very close, only 3 min by car, and has everything from fresh fruits to basics. Kolymvari the town is five min by car and has even more options. It is close to Falasarna beach, only 45 min. And other beaches, just 10-15 min away. Xania city is half hour by car, and has great old town, and much cultural things as well as beaches as well. Overall, we loved our stay and would love to come back. This is a great place for quiet, relaxing time but also close to many options in west of Crete.
