Colymbari and Kasteli are two of the best places for fresh fish close to the sea since there are plenty of tavernas where you can taste the Cretan cuisine.There are also supermarkets, banks, pharmacies and gift shops so you can buy everyting you need. The airport of Chania is about 50 min drive and the city center is 20 min drive where you can visit the famous Old Venetian Harbour.Also the most famous touristic place of Platanias is in less than 15 min drive with plenty of restaurants, beach tavernas,cafes bars and souvenir shops. In our village you can find a bakery shop that can provide you daily with fresh bread and a mini market with totally everything (fresh local meat and vegetables included) as also as a traditional cafe all in less than 5 minutes walk.. Bus doesn't run very frequently so we recommend you to rent a car in order to be free to explore the beautiful Cretan landscape that waits for you to discover it. We have taken care of every small detail and we are ready to assist you whenever needed to ensure you a pleasant and restful stay in our house hoping to fill your luggages with nice memories of our place and our hospitality. We are ready to welcome you!!

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Wonderful Cretan Hospitality
Sofia and Lefteris are the most wonderful hosts. The genuine care and concern for their guests is incredible and goes way beyond what is the usual for one renting their home. They are genuinely lovely people whose warmth and hospitality shone through and made our holiday something very special and one that we will remember for so many wonderful reasons. The house itself is lovely and set in a quiet village where you can meet the special local Cretan people. Having a car is a must and good local beaches are only a 15 minute drive with the wonderful beach at Falassarna only an easy and straight forward 25 minutes drive away. For our family with 3 teenage children this was our favourite beach. We highly recommend Sofia and Lefteris' villa as you will have an experience that will make your holiday so special.
