The view from the house was nice. If you’re at the property at the begging of the week the local restaurant is not open and local market has bread only. You have to drive to the city for 15 min to the nearest market. We arrived at the property late Sunday evening a family of 4 with young kids and it was inconvenient not to have anything around for breakfast. Would have been nice the owner to give heads up about to bring snacks ( if needed). The bed mattress was squeaky and uncomfortable. My husband and I had back pain every morning even though both of us in a good physical shape. No nice beaches around the area and not much to visit nature wise. We enjoyed our stay in Chania and visited all around. We were not very impressed with the area of Heraklion.

What a magical house! The village where it is located is like stepping into the past. It was a great experience for me and my family! The host was so nice and gave us a history of the house and the area. We absolutely loved our stay. The views of the mountains from the upstairs are absolutely beautiful! Cannot recommend enough!

This place was so nice, just perfect for our 3 week stay. The village was filled with friendly residents who greeted us daily and we came and went and we ate dinner four nights at the Golden Cage which we loved (it was a quick walk). I would highly recommend this lovely place.

Nice rustic experience with all the modern conveniences. The village and everyone in it were super pleasant and welcomed us in with open arms. The house (old olive mill) was very impressive and has many balconies and decks to sit and relax. I recommend if you want to stay out of the hustle of the city have a quiet time then this is the place.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It has a beautiful view of the countryside, way up high on the mountain top and it overlooks a lovely monastery. We loved that it had two bathrooms and two bedrooms. This is a very roomy home. I could have spent a month here enjoying the solitude as we love being in small mountain villages. The owner has thought of everything. We felt right at home.

We enjoyed our stay in this wounderfull rustic house very much. Travelling off-season the wood stove made the house comfy as soon as we lit the fire. Also the tavern "Golden Cage" can be recommended for nice atmosphere and delicous Greek food.
