It has been a wonderful experience being in Kastri (a picturesque village in the South of Crete) at Portela apartments. We felt home for the warm welcome Stavros and his family gave my boyfriend and I. The village is small and non touristic, and the apartment was new, greatly furnished, super technologic and it smelled NEW!! The part of the day we mostly enjoyed was after the day at the beach drinking a cold beer on our terrace...admiring the breathtaking view of the Lybian sea.
I must also say that Stavros has been the best host ever, he was always available in giving us advice about how to reach the beaches or whatever we needed. He also came by to bring us some great wine his dad made and we always had fresh figs in the fridge! I highly recommend this place!!!!
