We really enjoyed staying at Soula's home in Kerasia. About a 30 minute drive to Iraklion, it was a great combination of quiet village life while also being near Crete's major city. The house and village are very idyllic, the house is up near the top of the village, just across from the church. There are friendly neighbors, and Soula's mother lives just up above and was very hospitable. All in all, this was a fantastic, peaceful getaway!
