Since the first minute at Rose's place we felt at home and had that immense sensation of time slowing down. The views from the house and the taste of those olives are going to be some of our best memories from the trip! :) Loutraki is perfectly accessible from Heraklion by car; it's a 30' trip through a new road surrounded of gorgeous landscape. And if you have any issue be sure that Rose and Stella will be there to help out. Top hosts!
