This is a great place to stay, lovely hilltop village location within half an hour's drive of airport and central Heraklion, very nicely designed and well built house with a wonderful relaxing ambience, and a superb view towards the Psiloritis mountains from the verandah. If you have a car it's an excellent base for touring the mountains, and both north and south coasts, and all the sites and sights of central Crete. The village cafe is conveniently next door but you wouldn't know when you're in the house or garden (there's no noise!). Watching the sun set over the mountains every evening was fantastic. Maria greeted us with a nice breakfast when we arrived quite early in the morning, and responded to our queries very quickly. We just loved being here and hope to come again.
