An absolutely beautiful stay in a real traditional home with amazing views.
My wife and I stayed in Elia Traditional House and were really pleased with our time there. This is a beautiful traditional house in an amazing setting with both sea and mountain views. The local Taverna’s had really tasty food and drink and were only a short walk (or very short drive) away. The bedding and sheets were crisp and clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. We arrived late at night but this was not an issue and we were met by Pan at the 1912 Kafenion after some very clear directions. We were taken to Elia House (5 minute drive if that) and shown around the property. There was water and a few nibbles for us and also some delicious Raki.
The views that greeted us the following day were beautiful and my wife and I spent many a happy hour in the garden enjoying the tranquillity and weather (and wine).
There is a small TV with a few local channels on, although we didn’t use it during our stay
Only a few mosquito’s at this time of year which did not bother us and some very friendly local cats (one of which is so tame and friendly we thought of adopting her – but didn’t!).
Overall, we highly rate and recommend Elia Traditional House and plan to stay again when we are in the Chania/Aptera area.
Yamas.
