Gianni’s communication is fantastic! He is an excellent host; always available and always super helpful.
The large pool is a great area for family/friends to gather and enjoy.
The bedroom is modern/updated and the mattress was extremely comfortable-which is so important when traveling. We Always enjoyed a good sleep!
The location was very convenient-close to Irakleio to enjoy an evening out in the “big city” but also close enough to Ag. Nicholaos and other beautiful towns such that day trips were easy and pleasant. There is so much to see and do in the greater area. However, that said, even Kato Gouves itself has decent enough beaches and plenty of very good restaurants for those who like to just relax and stay local.
Our only “complaint”, if it can be called that, was the bathroom/kitchenette in our room is somewhat outdated; certainly clean and functional but not updated like the bedroom. As far as equipment goes, a hair dryer-which is appreciated particularly by international travelers-would have been useful and an on-site washer/dryer would be useful for those enjoying extended stays.
Otherwise, a perfect stay and a perfect host!
