Property was well located for beach and within walking distance of local taverna. This property is not suitable for anyone with mobility problems or young children as there is a very steep open staircase leading down from the bedroom to the bathroom.

Sehr freundlicher und herzlicher Empfang sowie kurze Einweisung in das tolle Apartment durch die Gastgeberin. Bei Fragen oder Problemen sind die Gastgeber/in gleich vor Ort und dabei stets hifsbereit. Praktisch ist zudem der gratis Fahrrad-Verleih beispielsweise für Strandausflüge oder Einkäufe im Minimarkt, die in unmittelbarer Nähe zu finden sind.
Absolut empfehlenswert für eine erholsame und ruhige Zeit im Osten Kretas!

Storslaget boende
Lite annorlunda mindre samhälle vid havet. Utmärkt på hösten för att stressa av. Helt tyst nattetid.
Boendet fantastiskt med husdel i två våningar men jag skulle tveka ta med barn pga alla fina saker och detaljer i huset man riskerar att ha sönder vilket tyvärr jag gjorde med en kaffekopp. Ägarparet var mycket vänliga.
