Wonderful apartment,very big (even for family) and clean. It is located in a perfect location if you want to visit west side of Creta, little a bit noisy if you let the door open cause the street traffic, but when you close is very silent. Irene and her son are always helpful and pleasant person.

What can I say? I had a fabulous time with Irene and her son, they were very helpful, generous people who really went out of their way to make my stay a joyful one. They even kindly drove me around and refused money for the gas but I insisted. I also received complimentary raki, wine and kalitsounia, a kind of cheese and spinach turnover. I guess because it was Easter things were closed but it didn't affect my stay at all and the weather was great, cool but sunny. Although the apartment was located on the old highway I didn't suffer from excessive noise thank goodness. I also got to sit in their garden in the mornings and evenings, just for a change of scenery. Highly recommended, and the flat is divine, almost boutique, very spacious and well insulated. I can't really think of any complaints.

We have nothing but wonderful things to stay about our stay in Tavronitis! Irene is our Greek Godmother, she lives downstairs and was always there if we had questions. Nik, her son was very friendly as well. The place itself was very roomy, everything you need in the kitchen including fresh olive oil and homemade raki. We work from home and wifi was always good there. The upstairs is extra space for more people and a separate living area to watch tv. The town itself is small, but we loved the bakery down the street and gyros next door. We always walked about 10 minutes down to the beach for a freddo cappucino and lounged at the beach chairs by the beach. It is a pebble beach, but the rocks were not bad on the feet. Only 10 minutes drive up the road is Plantanias where all the resorts and tourists are. There are shops and restaurants, but we only went there once, there's so much else to see in Crete. Only 20 minutes is downtown Chania and worth driving to a few of the beaches on the western side of the island. The most beautiful, crystal clear sandy beaches I've ever seen! We absolutely loved our stay and will visit again! You truly feel the Greek hospitality and living like a local here, which you don't get when you stay in a hotel with crowds of tourists.

J'ai passé un très bon séjour chez Irene, une hôte très réactive, qui propose volontiers son aide, ses conseils, et qui répond à toutes nos questions avec rapidité. Le logement est très grand, confortable, notamment la salle de bain et la cuisine. Wi-fi super. Il lui manquerait une fenêtre ou deux, mais pour y séjourner le soir, après une belle journée au coeur de la Crète, je le conseille volontiers. Merci !

Perfect villa in perfect place! We were there 4 adults. Very good equipped house, very tidy, nice view from the big balcony. Tavronitis centre is not so far, not more than 10 minutes walk. You can buy there everything you need. Also- close to the national road-if you want to go somewhere else on Crete with the car-no problem. Great contact with owner of the property and with the host! They were all the time available and answered question very quick-which was important for me because I was using airbnb first time. Everything inside new and in very good condition, no any defects. Fast and free wifi. Huge living area with kitchen, big bathroom and 3 bedrooms with very comfortable beds. The swimming pool is bigger than on photos. Lovely garden. Its villa with 2 floors-this was important for us, we didnt want to have many many stairs. We can definitely reccommend this dream villa and would love to come back next year!

We spent 4 nights in the beautiful villa of Manolis. We were two couple of friends and the villa was ready to accommodate 6 people. There are 2 big bathrooms and 3 double bedrooms. Big dining room and kitchen upstairs with a great balcony where to eat. Downstairs there's a great garden with table bbq and all you need to have a perfect holiday. A private parking place, free wifi and many things to eat and drink... Then Manolis is always available for any helps and questions. We loved this place and I really recommend it!

We had a great time in this place. The house is VERY big, fully equipped and very nicely furnished. We absolutely loved it. Manolis met us in the city and showed us the way to the house. He gave us a bottle of Raki, a typical greek drink, as a welcome gift. We had an amazing time there. I would strongly recommend this place!

Esperienza fantastica. La villa è bellissima e l'host è gentilissimo e aperto ad ogni richiesta. Ci tornerei anche domani.

We had an amazing and comfortably time in Villa Stefania. The location was very nice, near tavronitis bus stop and near the beach too. The house is very, very large. Much more than we expected. The host was really polite and helpful. We would happily stay in villa stefania again.

Bon contact et accueil. Maison proche des commerces et de la sortie de la voie rapide. Bien localisée pour rayonner dans l'ouest. Maison bien équipée spacieuse. Extérieur avec terrasse donnant un peu sur la rue mais peu de passage.

We liked the apartment right by the sea. Home eqipment was ok too. There was a beautiful landscaped garden and a small pond with a fish , our daughter liked it very much. Giorgos was communicative and very helpful, he also recommended us a great restaurant . We did a lot of trips by car to nearby beaches and intersting places.

The villa is wonderfull and its garden amazing. The sea is 50 m from the apartement, gorgeous! The area is very quite and people around are very kind. It is perfect for every type of holiday. WiFi did not work. It was impossible to connect

L'accoglienza non c'è stata perchè noi siamo arrivati verso sera e lui se n'era andato, nonostante sapesse stessimo per arrivare e ci avesse aspettato per alcune ore. La descrizione corrisponde solo riguardo il giardino (molto bello). L’host possiede due appartamenti al piano terra, le descrizioni non paiono differenziate, ma gli appartamenti offrono spazi, viste, stanze, letti etc.. di qualità molto differente. L'appartamento dove eravamo noi non ha veranda, ma un balconcino, non ha vista mare, se non laterale e attraverso lo scheletro in cemento armato di una casa in costruzione, non ha una camera con un letto matrimoniale (o due letti accostati), ma un letto alla francese largo 120 cm. La comunicazione sul sito Airbnb non è affatto precisa e non pare rispondente al vero. Ergo probabilmente i due appartamenti dovrebbero essere venduti a prezzi diversi e comunicando con chiarezza di quale appartamento si tratti, in modo da non incorrere in equivoci e non restare delusi, ma pagare per ciò che realmente si avrà. Quindi il prezzo ci è risultato eccessivo, la comunicazione sul sito Airbnb poco trasparente. Il quartiere è dotato del necessario, non mondano, ma gradevole.

Giorgos was a very nice host and you could always reach him for any questions coming up. The apartment had everything you needed and we thoroughly enjoyed the terrace which is sunny in the morning and shady in the afternoon! Only problem was the bed, which was too small for two, so we had to sleep on the sofa bed in the main room. The surroundings are very peaceful and you could really enjoy privacy and the beach was just a few steps away - hope to be back some day!

George was a very gracious host. He actually gave me the keys a day earlier because it was more convenient for me. The house is at a great location, extremely quiet, right on a fairly secluded, albeit pebbly, beach, and has a large and well-maintained garden. Right next door there is a place that serve good breakfast. Restaurants are 5 minutes away. The house has no airconditioning, but it was sufficiently cool

The villa apartment was awesome! We had some trouble in finding it after the flight and a short fight with the car rental company, but Giorgos' friends have been waiting paitently. It has all been very clean and the garden is gorgeous. The whole house is really nice and kept in well condition. I can't say anything about the neighbourhood as we have been alone on the plot the whole time (except for the gardener who came to take care of the garden), but we've always been feeling save. The best about the accomodation is that it's really quiet and the sea is almost directly in front of the gate. We'd strongly recommend this place and will definitely come back! The only pain we had is that it was impossible to connect to the wifi.

vacanza perfetta! le foto e la descrizione rappresentano la realtà:la casa é davvero a 50 m dalla spiaggia, in una zona tranquilla lontano dal turismo. Giorgio ha risposto a tutti i nostri dubbi ed é stato molto disponibile prima e durante il soggiorno. I proprietari della casa che vivono al piano di sopra sono ospitali e per niente invadenti.

Evis Garden est réellement un endroit magnifique où passer ses vacances en Crête et Giorgos nous a accueillis parfaitement ! La terrasse sympa, l’intérieur propre et totalement fonctionnel, le jardin est vaste et luxuriant, la mer est juste en face, à l'intersection de pas mal d'endroit sympa du Nord de L'île :) Giorgios donne toutes les adresses utiles de la région et est très prévenant ! Giorgios a toujours des solutions à tout, merci beaucoup Giorgos ! Internet n'était pas toujours au rendez-vous au rez-de-chaussée mais en Crête c'est assez classique, Giorgos a fait ce qu'il a pu. On vous conseille fortement ce lieu que l'on recommandera à nos amis également.

The House is really nice. You can find inside everything you need. It's really big and near to the supermarket, restaurant, pharmacy ecc. The host answered to my questions Quickly. I would like to suggest this villa to my friends.

Villa Olympia is very accurately described in words and pictures. The host is very responsive, and the local host rep very friendly, helpful and approachable. I will recommend Villa Olympia to any- and everyone that finds the listing appealing. My family of five loved it.

L'accoglienza, affidata ad una persona di fiducia è stata ottima. Siamo arrivati con un poco di ritardo e la persona ad attenderci ci ha aspettato pazientemente. Ci ha spiegato tutto e ci ha lasciato. La casa è fantastica. Si capisce che non è una seconda casa adattata, ma è la sua propria casa con tutto l'arredo enti di qualità. Il quartiere è leggermente periferico ad un borgo che di persè non ha moltissimo, ma è estremamente tranquillo. La casa è vicinissima alla spiaggia, raggiungibile a piedi, dove c'è una taverna che offre gratis lettini r ombrelloni in cambio di una economica consumazione. Insomma è strategica per visitare le spiagge più belle di Creta da Elafonisi a Balos e non solo. La casa è vista mare, dalla cucina, al soggiorno e da dentro il letto si vede il mare.

Be very careful when you rent this appartment. When you leave check all the things so you later wouldn't be accused of braking them. We found burnt frying pan and later we were asked to pay for it. And you should know that when you move out you have to leave it spotless. For the pan and uncleaned appartment we were asked to pay 150 euro. Constant noise outside, very poor internet connection and houskeeper that was left to be responsible for the house was very arrogant. Yard didn't feel cozy. While we were in Crete we've visited many beaches and this one was one of the worst. Before you come ask to get a map so you could find them, because there are no street names and house has no signboart or any hint saying that it is Iro's beautiful appartment. Local people also don't know such an appartment. I can say, that we didn‘t have internet in all the time, the internet came for some time – and after a few minutes it was gone. When we found out that it was not a temporary problem, we called Kostas – the person that let us in in the apartments. Kostas said, that he knew, that there were problems with the internet, because people living before us complained too. Then I asked why, if he knew, he didn‘t sort it out. He said he will fix it, but he won‘t do it fast. This day he didn‘t arrive so he came the second one. He was rude and arrogant. He said, that he bought a device that costed 100eu and now 20 people could use the internet at one time and now it is simply impossible, that the internet wouldn‘t work. He asked that we all would check if we had internet. Of all that we had it only worked in the computer. He said that it is problem in our own devices and my son‘s phone on the whole is chinese and it is no surprise that it doesn‘t work there. I wanted just one – that this arrogant man would get out of our apartments, I said, that if at least the computer is working – it is fine and it will be enough for us because we were a few days without a car and we particularly needed internet to plan trips with bus. Kostas arrogantically wondered – "you don‘t have a car? Everything is far from here!” I said, that it is too expensive for us and he just laughed that it is small money. When he left we felt humiliated and we couldn‘t forget this visit for long. And the internet after 15 minutes was gone again. I have to point out, that our phones and computer worked just fine in a hotel, where we were before going here and in all the other places where WiFi is. The internet works fine now too.

Wszystko było w najlepszym porządku! Komfortowy i dobrze utrzymany apartament! Wszystko zgodnie z opisem. Gorąco polecam!

Eleni 'a home is very comfortable and equip for holidaying. Good view, close to beach and cafe, easy to get to beautiful beaches Crete has to offer. Amenities like laundry and kitchen are great. Welcoming greeting too. Thank you for lovely memories.

Тихий и спокойный район, хорошо подходит для семейного отдыха. Хороший пляж (каменистый), чистое море. В шаговой доступности маленькие кафе, магазины. Наличие арендованного авто делает это место идеальным для отдыха - прекрасные пляжи западного побережья Крита будут Вам доступнее. Дом полностью соответствует фото, есть все необходимое для комфортного проживания. Хозяйка и ее сестра очень доброжелательны и приятны в общении, быстро реагируют на пожелания. Рекомендую этот дом для аренды и проживания.

Buona l accoglienza e la comunicazione con l' host fin dai primi contatti! La casa è molto bella e posizionata vicino ad una spiggia di sassi. La posizione è stratecica perchè a 20-40minuti dalle spiaggie di falassarna e balos. E a 30 minuti da chania. Ottima la pulizia della casa. Abbiamo soggiornato in 5 e ci siamo trovati molto bene. Il paesino è molto piccolo 2 market un po' cari e qualche taverna.

It was a real pleasure to spend a night with Richard and his wife. They are so nice and charming. The place is beautiful we felt like home.

Nice people on a really nice and quiet place with delicious fruits on breakfast and strawberrys from the garden !!

Apartmán se nám velice líbil, krásně zařízený a dobře vybavený, pohodlný,čistý, se třema teresami vhodnými ke stolování.Cítili jsme se tu jako doma.Paní domácí nám připravila do lednice snídani,koupila chléb, ovoce a víno.Bylo to moc příjemné.

We loved our stay in Tavronitis from the first meeting with Sophia and her husband. The home was exactly as described and the welcome gifts of fruit and wine, plus a supply of food to get us started was much appreciated. The village of Tavronitis was in an ideal location for exploring Chania and the western end of Crete. We made day trips to beautiful beaches and to the Samaria Gorge. We also enjoyed the location for its war history - important for Australians and especially this year which is the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Crete.

Très bon accueil. Le frigo était pleins de produits locaux et de première nécessité qui nous ont été laissés à disposition. La maison est récente et très bien entretenue. La climatisation et le ventilateur dans la chambre au rez de chaussée permettent de baisser la température de manière efficace. Les terrasses autorisent la farniente et le repos.

Sophia and Nikos were very welcomin and could answer all our questions. The house is ideally located next to the main roads that allow you to visit the top cities and beaches of the western part of Crete. We were 5 and had a wonderful week. Highly recommanded !

Отличное место для тихого отдыха. Никос и София доброжелательны и всегда готовы помочь. В доме есть все необходимое для приготовления еды, очень удобный "мангал". Парковочное место не очень большое - C4 Grand Picasso влезал с трудом. Ближайший пляж в 7-10 минутах пешком. В магазинах в Tavronitis можно найти практически все необходимое, но закупаться лучше ездить в INKA или Lidl в ближайших поселениях.

Die ganze Ausstattung war hervorragend. Es war an alles gedacht, was man irgendwann brauchen konnte.Sophia hatte dafür gesorgt, dass Brot, Butter ,Marmelade,Käse , auch Wein und einigesmehr vorhanden war,als wir ankamen.Sie wartete mit ihrem Mann auf uns bis 20:30.

The house is very good. There is a car park, a barbecue corner, a small lawn with an olive tree (perfect for having a rest in its shadow), a terrace on the 2nd floor. Inside the house is very clean. There's lots of light because of big windows. There is enough fresh towels and bed sheets for every guest. Both bedrooms are comfortable. Each has its own wardrobe. There's plenty of room for suitcases and other things there. In the living room there is lots of space for dining and cooking. There is an air conditioner there, but we used it only a couple of times during our stay. There is always a light breeze that naturally ventilates the house. Keeping windows opened seems so natural with such a good weather. Location of the house is very good, too. It is close to lots of beaches and the "old road" where night life is concentrated. Yet it is a quite neighborhood and night parties won't disturb your sleep. If you have a car, getting around will be really easy. The closest beach is only 10 minutes' walk. I recommend renting a car and exploring the shoreline (there's plenty of car rental offices in the area). You will find lots of beautiful places and good restaurants there. We enjoyed beaches that were about 30 minutes by car. There is a mini market about 5 minutes' walk from the house. A couple of supermarkets are about 5 minutes by car. It was really great to meet Sophia and Nikos. They are very friendly and you will feel a very welcome guest in their house. They are only a call away in case you need something. That is very important to me.

The house is new and fully equipped. everything was prepared and set to make our holiday as good as possible. The proprieties has a beautiful terrace with a stunning view. Sophia was an excellent landlord, towels and bed linen where regularly replaced, she even baked us a cake and left us in the fridge some local speciality prepared by her family. The town is quiet, but the propriety is 5 minute walking distance from the seas and 15 min by car from Agia Marina where you van find retaurants and clubs. Our experience was 100% positive, Thank you Sophia!

John und Anastasia empfingen uns mit einem selbstgebackenen Kuchen und hatten alles bereitgestellt, was man brauchen konnte, von Kaffee über Gewürze etc. Sie haben uns dann noch einmal eine köstliche Moussaka gebracht und waren damit nicht nur freundliche Vermieter, sondern auch regelrechte Gastgeber.

We stayed three days in this fabulous house by the sea ... The house is convenient and comfortable ... Nothing is missing ... Owners Jonh and Anastasia are hospitable ... Upon our arrival we were made to find local products ! Really we enjoyed it !! recommended

We've had a wonderful vacation in John and Anastasia cottage this August. The place looks even better than on photos, very neat, cosy and relaxing. It's situated right on the seaside, so you can sea sunset sitting in the garden in front of the house. And John and Anastasia are the best hosts ever! They've provided us with every single staff we needed including helpful advises for our vacation, delicous home-made pie as a welcome compliment and home-made mousaka (that was even better), and were very attentive and friendly. Best marks and best recomendations! Thank you! Hope we can come again someday))

We stayed at John & Anastasia's cottage for 4 days with our 3 little kids and had an amazing time and the warmest of welcome from John and Anastasia. They welcomed us at the cottage and were so nice and thoughtful. They included everything you could need in the cottage and it was so nice to find (so many!!) delicious Greek goodies waiting for us (some were even homemade!), our family felt at home right away. The book of recommendations was also a nice help. The house is exactly like on the pictures, the garden is very nice and totally equipped and it's very close to the beach. The house is also a perfect home base to enjoy excursions to Balos beach and Elafonisi and evenings in Chania. We couldn't have picked a better place to rent and more perfect hosts. We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage and wish you all the best for the future, John and Anastasia. It was a pleasure to meet such amazing hosts!

John and Anastasia are very friendly and helpful hosts. They waited for us at the cottage and they had prepared a very nice Cretan hospitality surprise! The house is very clean and as described at the photos. The garden is very big and the perfect place to relax. The area is very peaceful, the beach is near and at the main road of Tavronitis you can find all kinds of shops. Don't forget to visit restaurant Gramvoussa and Falasarna beach!

John and Anastasia received us warmly when we arrived in the middle of the night after a long flight and a tiring drive. They put yummy goodies in the house for us which we enjoyed. We found almost every house hold item we needed, from beach towels to toys for our child. It felt like they really thought through about what a guest would need during their stay. The location is very quiet, the only sound was the bells of the sheep grazing nearby. There's a sunny garden in the front ideal for enjoying the sun and a shady garden at the back for rest. The house itself is quite basic but the two beds ensure a good night's sleep. We would certainly recommend a car to get around since all the interesting things to do are a drive away.

Nous avons passé de très bonnes vacances en famille dans la maison de John et Anastasia. Nos hôtes nous ont très gentiment attendu malgré notre heure d'arrivée tardive et nous avons pu découvrir avec plaisir les petits cadeaux gourmands qui nous attendaient : gâteau, apéritif et de délicieuses citronnade et orangeade maison ! La maison est très jolie et très fonctionnelle (machine à laver, cafetière, bouilloire, produits de douche). Le jardin est superbe et très bien fait avec plusieurs coin d'ombre ce qui permet de profiter de la fraîcheur tout au long de la journée. Equipement bébé complet : lit parapluie et chaise haute, ainsi que des jouets pour le jardin et la plage. Présence du wifi, de guide de la Crète. Propreté irréprochable. Accès très facile car la voie rapide n'est pas loin. Petit commerce à 3 minutes en voiture. Vue sur la mer avec accès à 150 d'une plage de galet. La localisation nous a permis de visiter le sud ouest de la Crète très facilement. Nous recommandons chaudement cette adresse !

The guest house was just as in the pictures. The hosts were amazing and had provided a number of personal items, such as home made coffee cake, olive oil, lives, moussaka and wine. They even brought us family oranges as we enjoy that for breakfast too! They were a fantastic couple that assisted in everything we needed. Thanks again, Randy

Thank you so much, Nikos! We had such a lovely time staying in your stone villa. The location was great and we were really happy to take your advice about renting a car; It was the best way to really discover the island. Nikos kindly recommended us to a few beaches and also a restaurant in Kolympari. They all were great. We had a little difficulty with the hot water and shower, Nikos responded instantly and assisted us with getting it working. The home is at best a 10 minute walk to the beach. We enjoyed making meals in the kitchen, walking down and enjoying dinner on the beach with a wonderful bottle of wine from a local winery (located just across the road from the villa). Hoping to return sometime soon with my parents and would love to stay in one of your rentals. Efharisto para poli.

Nikos was a great host! Not only having been constantly caring, but also welcoming my parents with traditional food late in the evening. They had been informed about all the places worth seeing around as well as places to go for dinner and for shopping. The house was great, perfect size for two. Perfext stay on Crete!

Great and very comfortable house for it's price, nice and quiet location for exploring the western part of creta ( Chania region ) . You can find anything you need nearby. It is just the ultimate location when you have a car or bike . Nikos was very hepful with his instructions and all as well as his father who welcomed us with a local meat pie :).

We arrived to a cooked meal left for us from Nikos' parents which was lovely! The apartment is a short walk from a pebbly beach - great for swimming after a morning run or at night when the sun is going down. There are some beautiful beaches a short drive away - a rental car is a must.

Für jeden der den individuellen Urlaub sucht. Fern vom üblichen Massentourismus. Eine sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtetes kretisches Haus, welches einen einfachen aber dennoch ausreichenden Komfort bot. Wir haben uns Vormittags selbst verpflegt, die Küche war entsprechend ausgestattet, es mangelte quasi an Nichts. Mittags uns Abends haben wir auswärts gegessen. Eine Waschmaschine ist ebenfalls vorhanden. Geographisch günstig gelegen. Man sollte jedoch einen Mietwagen buchen um die nähere Umgebung erkunden zu können. Der Strand ist in ca 10 min zu Fuß zu erreichen. Chania ist ca. 20 km entfernt. Rehtymnon ca. 80 km und Heraklion 128 km. In ca. 5 min ist man mit dem Wagen auf der Autobahn bzw. Bundesstraße. Unser Gastgeber Nikos war jederzeit Telephonisch zu erreichen und war uns in allen Belangen sehr behilflich. Kommuniziert wurde auf griechisch bzw. auf englisch. Ein Urlaub der uns noch lange positiv in Erinnerung bleiben wird. Sehr zu empfehlen.

L'alloggio non è stato di nostro gradimento: risulta carino dalle foto ma dal vivo presenta molte lacune. Prima di tutto non era molto pulito, mancava di attrezzatura e quella che c'era era molto "usata". Il sedile del WC era di misura sbagliata e il piatto doccia troppo piccolo, senza tenda, l'acqua erogata troppo poca. La biancheria del letto di misura sbagliata, una finestra priva di tenda (la luce ti svegliava al mattino) le due porte di casa (sopra e sotto) bisognose di manutenzione. Nikos si è attivato prontamente per migliorare la situazione e questo va sottolineato, però non si può certo definire questo alloggio "LUX CRETAN HOUSE"!!! E' sicuramente un alloggio "tipico" ma va manutenuto e curato molto, ma molto di più..... Ciò nonostante abbiamo apprezzato il fatto che alle nostre rimostranze Nikos si sia attivato e speriamo che i prossimi ospiti siano più contenti di noi....

We had a nice time in the villa, the house is practical but you need a car if you want to go somewhere. The beach is very close by foot and the view is beautiful. Nikos is a nice host, he gave us some speciality from Crete, and some recommendations for restaurant. Thank you very much :)

Nikos was very friendly and hospitable for us. He wrote us full specification how to get to place of destination and was on touch with us - we could give him a call all the time, if we needed something. When we arrived, there was fresh and tasty, traditional cheesecake waiting for us. Villa was awesome - truly, traditional cretan home. We had everything we needed for spending great time on holidays. We found clean kitchen and bathroom, fresh bedclothes, dishes, cutlers, kitchen towels and even cold bottled water in the fridge! Nikos left us maps, guides and very helpful description of places and attractions worth to visit. We loved the furniture, made from real wood, traditional cretan sofa, and beautiful mosaic on the floor. It was great holidays! We recommend this villa and the Host!

Maria was great, helped us with ideas, waited for us to arrive as we where very late & nothing seamed too much effort. Big thanks go out to her to helping make our holiday great

Great vacation, Maria was very helpful and the house perfect for a family of 5. The location allows easy access to all western Crete beaches and touristic attractions.

Me and my family spent a really special time in crete in this beatifull house, close to the sea and to the fantastic cavo spada. Maria and her family are lovely and full of attention; the house is beautiful, clean and full optional with an exclusive garden. They have been really kind leaving us some little things in the fridge. We have been lucky to find this family and this location in a perfect position to visite so many places. Hope to meet them again.

We (5 adults and 2 small children) really enjoyed our stay in Maria's house. The house is very well equipped and we had everything we needed. The fridge was already full when we arrived and a delicious dinner was waiting for us. Maria's mother also prepared a cake as one of the boys had his 3rd birthday the following day. We really appreciated the large garden. The kids could play and run around without being able to escape. The beach with nice crystal water is very close but unfortunately there are stones and no sand. Staying at the house a car is needed, so you can do your shopping and visit places and nice sandy beaches close by. Maria was always very helpful when we had questions.

We spent a excellent week with our 3 children (8 to 4 y old) in this house. A lot of space in the garden for them to play. Very quiet place. Every nice places in west-Crete within 1 hour drive, and the nearest beach very close. We also appreciated a lot the attention of Giorgos and Maria who had prepared a meal and filled a bit the fridge for our arrival. We recommend this location !

L'accoglienza è stata calda e positiva, nel frigo Maria ci ha fatto trovare cibo e bevande, una bella sorpresa! ci siamo trovati bene e la posizione della casa, anche se fuori Chania, permette di raggiungere tutte le mete più interessanti della parte ovest dell'isola. Maria è stata disponibile e sempre reperibile, solerte nel rispondere e prodiga di consigli. Una bella accoglienza e una piacevole vacanza!

The house is very wonderfull, clean and equipped with almost everything; it has two big terraces from where you can enjoy the view of the sea and of the big garden (and you can eat there too as there are two tables with chairs; or, in the evenings, you can enjoy an amazing view of the stars as we did). The position is very good because you can easily reach Chania and the wonderfull beaches on the West coast of Crete: Balos, Falassarna, Elafonnisi (there's also a very quiet beach that you can reach in 10 mins walking). Tavronitis, the country, is a typical Greek country: small, relaxed, genuine; and it's super easy to get there as there is a dedicated exit from the National road. Maria, the host, is so kind, gracious and helpful; she gave us a lot of suggestions about what to visit and where to eat. When we arrived, she welcomed us with typical Greek pastries and she prepared the house with a lot of fresh fruits for us. We highly recommend Maria's cottage for you stay in Crete; definitely!

Maria was most informative and helpful through booking process. Maria's dad met us with the keys and a detailed introduction to the cottage at the prearranged time. Well supplied with fruit, wine, and breakfast foods to start us off. Maria made special arrangements to meet us to say hi and answer any questions, on our third day at the house
