What a wonderful place to stay!!!! In the little village of Kalamitsi Amygdali stands a beautiful and modern home, spacious and clean, with all the necessary luxuries and comforts (like a hotel!). From the comfortable couches, wide-screen tv, well-equipped kitchen, spacious bedrooms, balconies off each bedroom, quick and modern washer, wonderful rain-shower, luxurious bath, to the amazing balcony overlooking the Cretan villages all around, with amazing sunrises! This has been an outstanding home to experience Crete in!!!! We have enjoyed the sound of the goat and sheep bells at night, and in the morning. Our children and us have especially loved watching the flock of sheep/goats walking past the house every morning!! The sounds and sight is so wonderful!! And the hospitality shown by Pavlos' family is absolutely amazing! They have welcomed us to our home, given us tastes of Crete from their own produce and their own baking above and beyond our expectations, placed fresh flowers in the vases and cleaned the house and placed new linen and towels each time. The blue file that contains information about the house, and about exploring Crete has been so valuable to us! We planned our journey through Chania, and with our car we have seen so much, going to Balos, Elafonissi,Sfakia, Samaria Gorge, Chania town, not to mention the villages... Gavalochori, Vrysses, Kefalas, Vamos to name a few! As well as Argiroupoli with the amazing waterfalls and natural springs in the restaurant, the ancient town of Lappa, the village of Kandanos, the seaside town of Paleochora eating at the wonderful Pizzeria Odysseus! And the beach town of Georgioupoli so close by to the house, and Lake Kournas! We loved our two meals we had at the local taverna in the next village - Kalamitsi Alexandrou! We have found the Cretans to be absolutely wonderful, friendly, hospital and warm-hearted people who are so generous! Thank You Pavlo and to your family for making our stay in Crete a wonderful, comfortable and unforgettable experience!!
