Village of Margaretes was 15/20mins walk; this village was lovely and had so many wonderful things to buy. The walk there was very dusty and hot in the midday sun. This walk would have been fine, but not great with people with small children or people with disabilities. It was just very hot and uncomfortable in the heat and uphill coming back.

Der Empfang war sehr herzlich, es gab sogar einen selbstgemachten, sehr leckeren griechischen Auflauf und Irini hatte für unsere Kinder sogar etwas Spielzeug besorgt und bereitgelegt! Das Haus ist sehr schön renoviert, zwei Wohnungen mit je zwei Schlafzimmern übereinander mit getrennten Eingängen. Super schön ist der Außenbereich, wir haben immer draußen gefrühstückt, umgeben von den herrlichen Orangen- und Olivenbäume. Mitte Oktober war der Pool wie zu Erwarten eisekalt, unsere Söhne sind trotzdem reingesprungen und hatten ihren Spaß... Das Dorf ist ganz klein und halb verlassen, man hört nur die Ziegen. Es gibt eigentlich keine Autos, so dass unsere Söhne alleine in der nahen Umgebung herumstromern durften. Im Nachbarort Margerites, sehr hübsch im Herbst, absolut nicht überlaufen, haben wir meist zu Abend gegessen, sehr zu empfehlen. Wir haben sehr viele Ausflüge in die Umgebung gemacht, Ausgrabungsstätten, Tropfsteinhöhlen und die Strände an der Nordküste. Natürlich dauert die Fahrt an die Nordküste ein Stück, ca 20min nach Panormos und dann je nachdem wohin noch weiter. Wir haben es jedoch immer genossen, nicht an der Küste zu wohnen, sondern oben in "unserem" völlig untouristischem Bergdorf zu sein. Danke an Irini für Ihre Herzlichkeit und die immer direkte und u komplizierte Kommunikation via WhatsApp. ##### Kristell G. Stayed 11 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elin S.

L’accueil à un horaire pourtant tardif a été simple et très chaleureux, la sœur du propriétaire nous avait même préparé un repas pour notre arrivée. Merci à elle pour ses petites attentions, et le ménage deux fois sur nos deux semaines de location. Le village de Margaritas à 5 minutes, est adorable, tourné vers l’artisanat de la poterie. Les premières plages sont à 20 minutes, Rethymnon est à 40 minutes. Les extérieurs de la maison sont formidables: coin repas avec barbecue géant, piscine, transat avec ombrage d’une haie d’oliviers et de citronniers. L’aménagement intérieur est un peu plus sommaire (pas de micro-onde, un mini-lave-vaisselle par appartement). Au total, un séjour en Crête qui nous a beaucoup plu, et une location à conseiller en particulier quand on est nombreux (idéal pour deux familles). ##### Cedrine C.

Die Lage ist perfekt mitten in der Insel, alle unsere geplanten Ausflugsziele waren daher gut zu erreichen und Strände sind auch in angenehmer Entfernung. Der nahegelegen Ort Margeritas hat ebenfalls viel zu bieten, was wir aufgrund unserer vorab geplanten Ausflüge aber leider erst gegen Ende unseres Urlaubes entdeckt haben. Das Haus selbst ist kein neugebauter Klotz aus Gussbeton, wie es leider immer häufiger vorkommt, sondern ein richtig schönes, renoviertes, traditionell gebautes Gebäude in einem sehr guten und gepflegten Zustand. Es ist sehr geräumig, wir waren acht Personen und hatten alle bequem Platz. Die Vermieter sind sehr nette und zuvorkommende Leute. Bei Fragen waren sie immer zu erreichen und haben auch sehr schnell geantwortet. Insgesamt war von unserer Ankunft bis zur Abreise alles wirklich unkompliziert. Der Umgang kann am besten als freundschaftlich bezeichnet werden. Insgesamt hätte es nicht besser sein können weshalb wir das Haus uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Oct 1, 2018 #### Altes Schätzchen, aber viel Platz und noch mehr Charme! Wir haben Mitte September einen ganz tollen Urlaub in dem alten Steinhaus verbracht. Es ist wirklich sehr viel Platz vorhanden und auch für Kinder ist das Haus sehr geeignet. Der Pool ist besonders für kleinere Kinder gut, da er vorne nur ca. 80 cm tief ist und dann nach hinten hin langsam tiefer wird. So können die Kinder super über die Leiter selber einsteigen und sogar stehen. Es ist auch viel Badespielzeug vorhanden, man muss nichts groß mitnehmen. Das ist ein riesen Vorteil, besonders wenn man mit dem Flugzeug anreist. Warmes Wasser kommt über einen externen, solarbetriebenen Wasserspeicher. Ist der Tank leer, ist es auch mit dem warmen Wasser erst einmal vorbei, aber das ist auch der einzige Minuspunkt, welchem ich evtl. bemängeln könnte. Wir Deutsche sind halt dauerhaft warmes Wasser in der Dusche gewöhnt :-) Die Vermieter haben uns sehr herzlich mit Speis & Trank nach griechischer Art empfangen und der Reinigungsservice ist 1A! Vielen Dank dafür! ##### Eileen S. Stayed 13 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Estelle W. Jul 16, 2018 #### Beautiful house, lovely pool and outside eating area and a very warm welcome from the owner We had a wonderful stay at Afroditi's House and would absolutely recommend the property to family and friends! It is a nicely restored stone-built house in a little hamlet just outside the attractive village of Margarites. Our group had 8 adults and 2 young children and the house was perfect for us; plenty of space for the children to run about and an attractive pool surrounded by low-growing orange and olive trees to provide shade. We had many happy meals round the big outside table and had fun with the pizza oven too. The owners were incredibly warm and generous, always quick to respond if we had a question (though they respected our privacy too). We were made to feel really welcome with some beautiful food when we arrived from the airport and we got the impression they had really thought about what would make our holiday a happy one by, for example, providing some toys for the children. The location is also good.. not far from the sea and some great beaches but with good access to the mountains and some walks you can do straight from the house. The ancient site of Eleftherna is close by and there are some great Tavernas within walking distance too. A thoroughly enjoyable stay!! ##### Estelle W. Stayed 11 nights in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Rainer G. Jun 26, 2018 #### Das Haus und der Garten sind sehr schön. Es ist alles da um Urlaub zu machen. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen, obwohl wir 2 Stunden verspätet in Heraklion und somit auch am Ferienhaus ankamen. (Tuifly) Angenehm war auch, dass man über die Hausbesitzerin leicht erreichen konnte. Wir haben uns gleich wohlgefühlt. Man kann auch viel Zeit am Haus verbringen, aber ein Auto muss man auf jeden Fall anmieten , um einkaufen und sich die Gegend ansehen zu können. Oder wenn man an's Meer zu baden möchte. Man lebt auf dem Land , dadurch hört man selten ein Auto. Nur Schafe , Ziegen und die dazugehörigen Hunde. Also wenn man Urlaub in der Idylle verbringen möchte ohne den üblichen Hotel und Touristenrummel ist man im Haus Afroditis genau richtig. ##### Rainer G.
