Erholung pur
Die Begrüßung von Christina war sehr herzlich, wir haben ein wunderschönes Ferienhaus mit Pool vorgefunden. Die Lage ist perfekt, schön ruhig, aber doch so zentral, um schnell Einkäufe und viele andere Ausflugsziele zu erreichen. Wir bedanken uns herzlich bei Christina!

Zeer aangename kennismaking met Kreta
Het contact voor het huren van de woning verliep zeer soepel. De woning voldeed zeker aan de verwachtingen, alles aanwezig en mooi gelegen. Bleef goed koel, en ook beneden en boven goede airco aanwezig. Zwembad gaf heerlijke verkoeling. Het dorpje is schilderachtig, leuk om doorheen te wandelen, ook een mooie wandeling te doen vanuit het dorp naar een kapel in het bos. In het dorp is nog een wat groter zwembad bij een minimarkt, ook mogelijk om gebruik van te maken. 10 minuten rijden naar Kalyves en Almirida, leuke badplaatsen. En ruim een half uur naar Chania, prachtig oud centrum, en het vliegveld. Vamos ook een sfeervol dorp vlakbij. Al met al heerlijk verblijf van een week gehad!

Reposant
Très jolie maison bien équipée et confortable située dans un beau petit village au calme à flanc de colline et bercé (ou pas) par le bruit des Kri-Kri . Christina, l’hôte est très accueillante et à l’écoute. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié aussi la piscine et la climatisation pour nous rafraîchir aux heures chaudes. De plus c’est idéalement situé pour visiter l’ouest de la Crète. Vous serez à moins de 2 heures des spots les plus éloignés et relativement au centre du reste. Nous conseillons vivement cet endroit.
