We were very happy to stay at Frantzeska's house! Every room has an air conditioneer, during the heat wave it has proved invaluable. Her spacious and artfully decorated apartment was fully eqipped with tableware of different forms and sizes and everything else we needed for comfortable living.
The apartment is really near to the sea, you can go swimming in a minute's time. The small sandy beach of Keratokampos is a few more minutes away. In the other direction there is a larger Skouros beach further away with some shadow from the trees, and the amazing Listos beach.
There were no sea urchins, no wasps, and, amazingly, no moskitos (maybe because of the temperatures)!
There are three taverns (good village food) and two small supermarkets nearby, there's also a fresh fish shop. Even in high season (August) nothing was full except maybe on the weekends, a stark contrast to the Amoudara area near Heraklion we've visited later.
Frantzeska left some delicious home-made sweets for us on our arrival, there was also wine, she brought us figs from her garden, olive oil and so on :) Our children enjoyed our stay in Keratokampos and the apartment very much.
Thank you very much, Frantzeska!
