Omg this place is so stunning. We loved it so much. Beautiful remodel, and the decorations made it feel like you've stepped back in time. The owners brought us treats upon arrival. Clean and a nice location for seeing the sights of ruins in the area. Would definitely recommend it ❤️

#### Amazing Stone Villa the name says it all

Yiannis and Mary your beautiful traditional house is a testiment to the love and care you have put into its restoration and refurbishment. Nothing has been missed and there is everything you could possibly need for an enjoyable holiday. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality we very much enjoyed our time in your company and we particularly loved Mary's cheese pies you are excellent hosts. The photographs do not do justice to this beautiful property.

#### Schöne Wohnung...

Die Eigentümer Yiannis und Mary sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber und gepflegt. Für Menschen die das Landleben und Dorfidylle mögen ist es genau dass richtige.Einzig die Videokamera im Hof und der Bewegungsmelder in der Wohnung (vermutlich Einbruchmeldeanlage) haben mich etwas gestört, aber dies sind nur meine persönlichen Empfindlichkeiten ;-)... Ansonsten war alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit und wir kommen gerne mal wieder. Beste Grüße Christian

#### South Crete

Seven days, seven nights! Yiannis and Mary are very nice hospitable typical Greeks. The house has everything you need. To relax. Ideal. Far from tourism. Shopping and eating, only accessible by car! Many smaller villages around. Beaches are nearby, umbrella not!The house a good mix of old and new. The bed 100 years old very narrow. Too narrow for us, Alternative sofa in the living / kitchen area. We come back! Promised !!!
