Great vacations in Herbert's house!
It was all nice!
The only annoying thing that a bit darkens our vacation were little angry mosquitoes biting us almost every night. But this is not a problem of this charming house, its the curse of all tropical regions including Crete. So just be ready for this while preparing to go to Crete and all will be fine. That's all about negatives and the rest of our impressions are full of positives.
Herbert appeared to be a very pleasent man. And his house appeared to be the ideal place to rest after the everyday long trips. It's 2 minutes by car to the nearest beach, 20 min to Rethimno and 40 min to Chania. Also its a good starting point for a trip to the South part of Crete (Chora Sfakion, Frangokastello, etc).
4 min walking to the nearest supermarket (big enough), 3 min by car to the bakery (with an outstanding fresh products).
And the diamonds of this house are the spectacular views from the windows!!! Breakfast and dinner on the balcony quickly became a good habbit of my family. Charming views of clouds above the mountains in the morning and breathtaking sunsets in the evening.
God bless Herbert, his wonderful wife and his daughters and great thanks to all of them!
