Charming property and delightful, helpful hosts

House extremely clean and comfortable. Lovely village location with friendly locals. Fabulous taverna within 5 mins walk. Well positioned for trips to beach (Falasarna superb) and mountains for walking. Lots of cultural attractions close by and Hania well worth a visit. Delightful 2 weeks and would return to explore further. Things to improve house would be microwave, toaster and a few more knives for chopping vegetables, slicing bread etc but very minor concerns in the overall experience.Thanks very much Katerina!

in een klein grieks dorpje niet ver van de kust

in de advertentie bleek niet duidelijk dat de woning eigenlijk een appartement was. We hadden dus bovenburen. Blijkbaar was ook het zwembad gemeenschappelijk. Hadden we dit op voorhand geweten dan hadden we waarschijnlijk een ander verblijf gekozen. Al bij al geen last gehad van de buren dus dat viel wel mee. Wat we echt niet leuk hebben gevonden is dat het graspleintje tussen het terras en het zwemdok blijkbaar automatisch bewaterd werd waardoor je voeten steeds vol slijk hingen als je over en weer ging. Voor de rest wel een aangenaam huisje.

Potete assaporare la natura circostante in quanto immersi negli ulivi ed il suono delle cicale vi accompagnerĆ . Un oasi di pace.

Una vacanza perfetta in un piccolo angolo di paradiso

Non posso definire questa casa se non perfetta! Posizione strategica per arrivare nelle migliori spiagge della zona occidentale di Creta (come ad esempio Balos, Falasarna ed Elafonisi). La casa ĆØ dotata di ogni comfort: una cucina ben fornita, soggiorno spazioso e una luminosa camera da letto che affaccia sul giardino. Per non dimenticare la sorpresa piĆ¹ grande: la splendida piscina di nuova costruzione (una grande sorpresa, in quanto era appena stata finita nel periodo in cui abbiamo soggiornato noi). Insomma, tutto ciĆ² ti fa sentire come se fossi a casa. In aggiunta, nonostante sia freschissima (essendo unā€™ex cantina, oggi ristrutturata), in casa ĆØ presente lā€™aria condizionata, un altro comfort non sempre scontato. Inoltre, ringrazio immensamente la proprietaria di casa, estremamente gentile e disponibile; si ĆØ preoccupata di ogni nostra esigenza, mostrandosi volenterosa nel voler rendere la nostra vacanza perfetta. Inutile dire che mi ĆØ dispiaciuto immensamente dovermene andare e sicuramente se dovessi tornare a Creta saprei giĆ  dove soggiornare!

Ein auƟergewƶhnliches Quartier

KĆ¼che und Essbereich dieser Ferienwohnung befinden sich tatsƤchlich im Bereich eines ehemaligen Kellers. Durch die tiefe Lage ist die Wohnung in den Hochsommermonaten angenehm kĆ¼hl. Sie wurde aufwƤndig restauriert, z.B. mit Zierbalken und Holzpaneelen an der Decke. Eine groƟe Terrasse mit neuem Gasgrill und angrenzender Garten mit blĆ¼henden Pflanzen laden zum Aufenthalt im Freien ein. Die Gastgeber erfĆ¼llen den Mietern alle WĆ¼nsche. Ein sehr gut bewertetes, sehr preisgĆ¼nstiges Restaurant liegt nur ca. 100 m entfernt. In der Duschecke fehlt noch ein kleines Regal zur Ablage von Schampoo, etc. Daneben hƤtte auch noch eine kleinere Waschmaschine, vorzugsweise ein Toplader, Platz. AnschlĆ¼sse sind vorhanden.

Perfect and charming appartment in quiet town near the coast.

Spatious appartment in the small town of Spilia, on the north west coast. Lovely place (cool as well) because it used to be a wine cellar, nice historic details. Private terrace and garden with much shadow. We had a warm welcome by Katerina and her sister and really a very pleasant stay. Everything you need is in the village: supermarket, 3 restaurants, small cafƩ, etc. Not many tourist so it still has the charm of a greek town. Beach less than 3km. Highly recommended (but please leave some opportunities for us to return)!
