Zacharias is an excellent host, always keen to show his hospitality and very helpful throughout our stay with useful tips about the area (and even our rental car). The location is both away-from-it-all in the mountainous backcountry, yet only 20 minutes drive to Elafonissi, the best beach on the island, especially if you head to the outer periphery. The house will keep you cool in summer and if can't do without your wifi you'll be pleasantly surprised (25 mbps) even if that's surely not the reason you've come to this tranquil part of Crete.
