This place is unbelievable. A true getaway. It's a beautiful spot in the mountains, but in a around half hour you can having coffee in Chania harbour. The villages around here are dotted with charming tavernas, interesting historic locations and outstanding natural beauty. But you don't need to do any of that because with a home this beautiful you just want to be there! The kitchen is very well stocked so I took advantage of the wonderful Cretan ingredients from the shops, plus olive oil from the villa, to cook lots of great meals -- including making souvlaki on the outdoor grill. We were so well looked after. We would love to come back. There is no place like it.
