Sep 10, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Location -private and relaxing My husband and I stayed at at the cottages (we had the middle one) it was the perfect place. We had flown in from Athens and this was just what we wanted, a quiet place to relax and a small little town to walk to for drinks and meals. This was our “relaxing” part of our trip in between Athens and Santorini. We swam at the beach everyday, and walked into town (5 mins) every evening. The trip to island of Spingola was interesting, would recommend. Can catch a ferry boat for 9Euros or so round trip, pick up is just a 5 min walk into town. As for cottage, it was quiet, easy to park with the private lot (we rented a car) and be sure to follow the directions given by host, easier route than by GPS which would put you on smaller roads. We have saved this VRBO in our favorites and would definitely stay again. Thank you! ##### Erin L.

May 30, 2019 #### Tranquil with beautiful views We wished we’d stayed longer! From the very beginning it all went smoothly. Christine was in contact with references to taxis etc from Heraklion airport, therefore our taxi driver knew the area and found our accommodation late at night. Easy to work air con and mattress very comfortable for us. There was a welcome food pack which got us through a couple of days, thank you to the lovely lady for this who also works on beach beds, she was very helpful. The location was superb and we would love to come again. We wanted relaxation so spent time on the terrace sunbathing and looking out to views of Spinalonga. We ate breakfast out there too. Kitchen equipped if with all you need, shower good. We loved the whole experience, the little gate to the beach was used regularly and thank you for free sun beds on the beach too. We swam everyday even filmed a huge black and white Manta Ray in the shallows. We walked 2 minutes into the village daily to supermarket and restaurants in the evenings. Plenty of lovely places to eat. Took a taxi To Elounda 8 euros, a busier place so we prefer Plaka. All locals friendly & food lovely. Eagles flying high above the mountains behind were great to watch as we take our binoculars everywhere too! Had a lovely boat ride across from tiny harbour in Plaka to Spinalonga for 10 euros, cafe there , had about 4 hours and walked up to the highest point, boats coming and going all day. Lovely views from there too. Thank you for building these amazing studios right on the beach, which also I forgot to mention has waiter service from sun beds to a cafe too! I came to see the island and all exceeded my expectations, 😀 ##### Julie M. Stayed 7 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ALLAN W.

It was every thing we had hoped for. An amazing location with fantastic views and facilities. ##### ALLAN W. Stayed 4 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marc S. Nov 5, 2018 #### It was just what we wanted My wife and I had a lovely time at the “cottage”. Although described as a cottage it is an apartment style residence with all the facilities you need. Ours was the central one of three in the complex and I feel has the best situation with three different sun areas immediately outside the front door including an eating area and drying area. The bay is very stoney and a trial to get into the sea - beach shoes with a sole are recommended in order to safely manoeuvre and avoid the black sea urchins. But once in a snorkel and facemask is essential to benefit from the aquatic wildlife - a treat. There are walks available to Elounda and the peninsula point without the use of a car - but I would recommend a vehicle on a couple of days at least to travel around and for the major shopping if self catering. Elounda has the best shopping. The host provide a welcome pack which will take you by surprise with what’s included - thank you it was very welcome. We travelled in mid October just as the season was ending. There were plenty of people still attending Spinalonga but the beach at Plaka was being mothballed for the winter. Restaurants and tavernas were a plenty and very welcoming. Good food and reasonably priced. All in all a really enjoyable and relaxing holiday. We are really glad we went. ##### Marc S.

Sep 1, 2018 #### Stunning, magical and so quiet and relaxing We stayed in Kollikatha cottage for 2 weeks and can honestly say we have never had a more relaxing holiday to date. If you love simplicity with clean comfortable accommodation and direct access to the sea then this is the holiday for you. The views are stunning and the village (a very short flat walk away) is friendly and quiet compared to the larger resorts. Lots of good restaurants to choose from and a couple of supermarkets for basic needs. The sea in front of the cottages is clear and warm although I would also recommend sea shoes as those stones are tricky. At night the stars are wonderful and all you can hear is the sound of waves on the beach. Spinalonga is worth a visit as you are looking at it all day, its very interesting and its only a short walk to the ferry. We were looked after very well by Christine and her team and nothing was ever too much trouble. The airport transfers Christine organised for us were on time and very luxurious! Seriously though this is a place to just chill, relax and soak up the sea and sun. We would highly recommend the villas to like minded people who love quiet and meeting really lovely Crete people who have time to talk and laugh with you rather than treat you as a number. Thank you - we will definitely come again! ##### Jacqueline D. Stayed 15 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Conrad A. Jul 16, 2018 #### Wunderschön!
