It is perfect place to stay in Crete!
Everything was mentioned, and view from house is exactly same as you see in this photos. There are beaches, small store and good restaurants within walking distance(just 5~10min?) There is big mart as Lidl just 3min by car. It takes around 30 min to Heraklion city by car (I think enough distance to sightseeing)
And host also kind and helpful and responsive. We had dinner at Saradari, recommended by host, it was awesome. If I have another chance to trip to Crete, I wanna stay again!
