We wanted a special place to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary with our adult children and we certainly found it! A truly wonderful stay at Marion La Lumiere. The property and the panoramic views are stunning! Every room in the home has a gorgeous view of the sea and the mountain landscape. The villa is beautifully appointed, well maintained and very clean. Such a pleasure to meet the owner Georges, who was very gracious and accommodating.
The pool deck with outdoor living and dining area was a favorite spot to relax with coffee, take a dip in the pool, nap in the shade or enjoy a sunset dinner. Our family also loved to walk down the charming stone staircase and swim in the sea. The property is beautifully landscaped and includes a vegetable and herb garden to enjoy in season. The basketball court a fun bonus!
The Klapsinos Beach Taverna right next door is run by a mother and her 2 sons. The traditional Greek food is delicious but you will find yourself wanting to return because Andreas and Bobis are so welcoming and friendly. Just a few more steps up the road is Mimi’s Taverna also serving a beautiful view and delicious Greek food. A convenience store across the
street or a short drive to the nearby supermarket will have any other essentials you need.
We also found this area to a be a central location for exploring Crete by car. The driving can be a bit intimidating but the views of the mountains and the sea are stunning and well worth doing.
So thankful for our special time in Crete at Marion La Lumiere. We’ll remember it fondly. 🇬🇷
