A combination of traditional and modern. Fully furnished with utmost attention to detail. The house lies within an estate surrounded by flowers, palm trees, an olive grove, a vineyard and various fruit trees. Quite and secluded, close to the sea and town. Located in a group of three independent appartments.
We lived for 14 days in an oasis surrounded by palm vines and olive trees and flower beds around the house. The house is furnished very appropriately and tastefully with good kitchen facilities. From the living room there was access to two terraces so there was always the possibility of shelter and sunshine. From one terrace there is a view of the Mediterranean Sea and the possibility of a short evening trip down to the sea and enjoying the sunset. Our hosts were very welcoming and helpful with guidance about our visit to East Crete. The house is just a 10-minute drive from Sitia. And should there be an interest in Minoan culture, the area is definitely worth visiting, as well as the very fine museum in Sitia. We can highly recommend a stay in these beautiful surroundings and will be happy to return.
We stayed for three weeks in one of the three bungalows on the side during September.
It now looks even more green than in the pictures. We were surrounded by many blooming flowers and a lot of green plants. This is a view you very rarely get in the region in early autumn.
The host was very hospitable. We were able to talk often about Crete and the surrounding area.
The apartment was cleaned and towels and line where changed once a week, what really surprised us positively.
Apart from the sea and the purring of the friendly cats on the property, there is hardly anything to hear, although one of the essential main roads in the area is only a few metres away. It is very easy to explore the area by rental car from there.
The well-equipped kitchen makes self-catering possible. A restaurant is within walking distance. However, better restaurants (and wonderful secluded sandy beaches) can be reached in about 20 minutes by car.
Schönes sauberes Appartment in guter Lage um den Osten Kretas zu erkunden. Wir waren zum zweiten Mal hier und haben unseren Aufenthalt wieder sehr genossen.
Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in diesem wunderschönen Haus, welches Ă€uĂerst geschmackvoll eingerichtet war und in dem es an nichts fehlte. Es gab zwei Terrassen. Eine, von der aus man durch die hĂŒbschen OleanderbĂŒsche und Palmen zum Meer schauen konnte und eine andere, die nachmittags Schatten bot und einen sehr schönen Blick in die traumhafte Parkanlage mit unterschiedlichsten Blumen und Pflanzen bot. Vom Haus aus lieĂ sich der gesamte Osten von Kreta zum Wandern sehr gut erreichen. Nach schönen Touren durch etliche Schluchten, lieĂ sich das ein oder andere kĂŒhle Bier herrlich auf den Terrassen genieĂen. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt nicht zuletzt auch wegen des sehr netten Besitzers, der die Anlage in Schuss hĂ€lt und das ein oder andere nette PlĂ€uschchen mit uns gehalten hat und einiges Informatives ĂŒber die Insel zu erzĂ€hlen wusste.
Es war ein toller Aufenthalt mit sehr netten Gastgebern.
Leider hatte unser Schlafzimmer keine Klimaanlage. Lt. dem Vermieter wird diese aber zeitnah nachgerĂŒstet.
