We stayed here for a week and loved every minute. The house is spectacular: set right on the edge of a gorge, overlooking the tiny village of Vafes, it has a number of outdoor spaces where you can eat or simply relax and enjoy the sounds of goat bells and bird song. Inside, the house is uniquely decorated with antiques and traditional Cretan crafts - beautifully woven rugs and handmade ceramics - and enough to keep little ones entertained (our 4 year old son loved exploring!). The hosts waited for us in nearby Vrisses and took us directly to the house, and were helpful with advice on activities in the area. The kitchen was crammed with homemade goods for us to sample - preserves, biscuits, olives, etc. - and Leah and Vasilis insisted we try everything. We really felt at home here, largely because the hosts were so warm and welcoming when we arrived - and then left us alone to relax and enjoy the house for the rest of the week. A perfect holiday. Thank you, Leah and Vasilis!
