What a beautiful, peaceful, place! We so enjoyed our vacation in Gavalochori at Renata’s and were lucky to have Koula as a gracious and warm host. The outdoor spaces are amazing, the house is cozy, full of character and excellently equipped. The hosts were very responsive and generous. There were Raki and homegrown vegetables and wonderful homemade food waiting for us upon arrival. Koula kept bringing us things from her garden and fresh eggs. When I injured my back they brought me a softer mattress pad, which helped a lot. The town is amazing, a local beach is nearby in Almirida, and the place is conveniently located between Chania and Rethymno. But it feels far away from it all, loved it! Thank you Renata and Koula!
