Highly recommend! Lovely welcome, we felt immediately at home. The owner Georges and his wife were very friendly and spoiled us with local fruit, pastry, Raki and homemade jam. The apartment on the 1st floor is spacious and very well maintained. The kitchen is very well equipped and the living room is nicely furnished. Every bedroom has his own balcony and airco and the windows have blinds and mosquitoes nets. We stayed 2 weeks in September and bed linen and towels were changed. We loved having breakfast on the front balcony on the 1st floor while watching the sea. The outdoor kitchen on the ground floor is amazing with the BBQ and pizza oven. The neighborhood is quite and you have the possibility to park the car inside the premises. Vrachokipos located is in the center of Crete and therefore the perfect location to explore the Island. Only +/- 11 km from the airport and 17 km from Iraklion city. In Kokkini Hani (5 min drive by car) you have supermarkets, bakery, butcher, taverna's, bars... There are several sand beaches in neighborhood but you need a car. You can rent a beach chair for 3,5 Euro. The host Emmanuella was helpful and available to answer questions. We really enjoyed our stay and would come again.
