Niki's house is a great place to spend quiet holidays away from mass tourism, crowds, noise, etc. It is located in the South-Eastern Crete - a region that is different from the whole island. The house is spacious, convenient, beautifully located, walking distance from two beaches and two taverns. In the village (Xerocampos) there are also three other taverns, as well as a mini-market, and a coffee house - however, you need at least 15 minutes to walk to these facilities from the house.
Niki is also a great host, easy to reach, and always willing to help.
If you're looking for a place that is far away from the tumult and turmoil of standard tourism and at the same time it is fully comfortable, Niki's house is the choice you'll be satisfied with. It is a perfect house for family vacations - we spent there three memorable and adorable weeks and I wish we could go back.
