The place was perfectly equipped with all new or almost new appliances. The garden is nice too as well as swimming pool. We did not meet the host but we met with his dad who lived nearby and was very helpful. The place is a bit remote but this is what we loved as we did not want to stay in the crowded touristy areas. It is still walking distance from the village if you want to go to the local taverna in the evening. The communication was perfect and Manolis checked few times if we needed anything. We definitely recommend the place but you will need a car to get there. Thank you for the stay. We would stay here again if we travel to Crete.
