Triantafyllia's place is located about 10 minutes from the local beach, which is a natural beach with a life guard. With a ten minutes walk from the local beach, you can reach Kissamos main beach, Mavros Malos, where the water is quieter on days with waves. A 15 minutes walk or a few minutes drive from the house takes you to taverns and bars along the beach, which is the happening place in Kissamos. Breakfast and dinner on the large house's balcony with ocean views was also wonderful.

Falassarna is a short 20 minutes drive from the house. Of all the many beaches I have seen over the years, I think that Falassarna is one of the most beautiful one: crystal clear waters, soft sand, plenty of space, and great scenery. Other places to visit such as Balos, Elafonisi, and the Samarya gorges are not far from Kissamos.
Triantafyllia and her family live downstairs and are always available to answer questions and help with anything you ask. On our first day at Kissamos, we didn't have a car, and they offered to drive us to the beach.
The place is very clean and spacious as shown on the pictures. As mentioned, Triantafyllia's family is extremely caring. They brought us tasty seasonal fruit and Greek specialties. We felt very welcome and very sad when it was time to leave. We would definitively go back to Triantafyllia's in a future trip to Crete.
