The villa Opuntia is actually bigger than it looks as in addition to the garden you have a little field of olive trees and a second little house with a shower and a kitchen (barbecue place). Voula and Konstantinos welcomed us the first day with a full fridge with drinks and mussaka and home made olives and so much more. Contrary to many vacation villas, this place tells a family history and even if the place is completely renovated and tastefully decorated you can definitely feel the love and care put into hundreds of little details. The furniture is comfortable, the kitchen has everything you can desire, the design is elegant and tasteful. The house is definitely a gem. Now if you are looking for a quiet isolated place, if you wish to see million stars in the night, wake up with crickets, and pick up your own tomato cherries this is the place for you. Chania is less than half an hour drive and in the village nearby you have a little shop with everything you need to buy. We found the location quiet and peaceful and yet very convenient to travel around. Crete is beautiful and you can easily enjoy the west of the island from there. Voula and Konstantinos were very helpful any time we needed to ask them a question, they live in Chania so not too close and not too far. They are charming and very generous. If you travel to Crete to enjoy the green, the landscape and the peacefulness of the countryside, this is definitely a great place for you! We enjoyed every second of it .-))
