We really enjoyed our time at that beautiful place.
We spent 9 nights with our two kids at Villa Vaya .
Situated a bit outside of Mochlos up the hill it’s a perfect starting point to explore the environment. For that it’s definitely necessary to have a car.
There are several wonderful beaches close by (10 to 20 minutes drive) and a very charming little bay and beach in Mochlos Village itself.
We went hiking in Richtis gorge and spent a day at the north east peak and coast of Crete.
The possibility of using the pool at blue sea hotel is very cool and it is even possible to learn diving at Scuba Funtasea Diving center belonging to a hotel close by.
In Mochlos Harbor there are several tavernas perfect for having lunch or dinner and a very charming bar (Bar Raki) on the way to the parking: a perfect place to enjoy a sundowner drink!
With a special foot path starting at the house it’s just a five minute walk to the village.
Up the hill there is a very nice restaurant called "Natural" and on the way to Richtis Gorge another cool place to enjoy a drink with an amazing view: a little snack bar called “cafe with seaview” right after Mirsini.
We also enjoyed cooking at home, there is a lot of equipment in the two kitchen.
In Mochlos itself there is one mini market, we found another one in Kavousi and a huge one in Sitia.
For any question we could always contact Giorgos and his friendly father!
