Maria was an amazing host. We felt so welcome during our stay - if you've read all the other glowing reviews, well they are all true.
The house really is only 100 meters from the beach and the village has lots of great restaurants. You can also book trips in the village with a local pick up which we weren't expecting. We went to Knossos and to Santorini.
We have no hesitation in recommending this home and would definitely stay there again if we visit Crete.
