If we could return to one place to stay in Crete, this would be it. We loved it here! We've never stayed anywhere like it. It's in a really special area that gives you a great feel for the mountains and has easy access to Samaria Gorge. We loved waking up to the sound of sheep bells and seeing sheep and goats outside every day.
While you'll stay in a nineteenth century building, it has so many modern amenities that you'll be completely comfortable. The space is charming and cozy. Dimitris and his daughter met us and gave us all sorts of tips for both the Omalos area and Chania. They also left us with several nice parting gifts. I highly recommend this if you're looking to get away!
