Bof bof à oublier… notre plus mauvais logement en Crète !
Pros:

Pour être franc pas grand chose…

Cons:

Personne pour nous accueillir…
Frigidaire pas branché en arrivant
Piscine bien mais qui a beaucoup vieilli
Globalement le lieu mériterait une sacré rénovation pour être au prix de la chambre… donc rapport qualité prix pas du tout bon
Les photos sont totalement trompeuses car elles datent au moins de 10 ans…

Very special place with breathtaking scenery
Pros:

Amazing place, the buildings are beautiful and the facilities were perfect. Stunning view from every direction. I loved how the owner has collected antiques that clearly have a lot of history and gives the place that extra special feel

As Mary Poppins used to say - practically perfect in every way :)
Pros:

met the best Greek standards - excellent quality but ... kills people with its enormous quantity :)

Cons:

it happened that the hotel did not take care of a humane temperature outside - for several days Crete was bothered by the heat of 40 C and above ... :) To the huge respect of the management, the air conditioning indoors was perfectly adequate to fight such heat.

Friendly week with children
Pros:

There is nothig negative what can I say about this place
Our first thinking was strange because of the road to Samonas, we were a little bit scared but after two times when we were down on the beach/ other village we learn how to enjoy the road.
Konstantin is super friendly, his Staff did our visit really cool, we received fresh fruits for hello, also fresh and vitaly juice with a lot of ICE next day for the breakfast ( It helps us lot during this warm weather :) )
Some sweet balls which bring us Konstantin were really good, tasted like my mother donats!
Pool ist great it give a lot of fun for kids and also for adult when is warm
House has everything what is needed to normal life.
Daily cleaning, but first always ask If we needed it.
At the end small surprise for guests!
Trully recommend this place


Wish You all the best Konstantin

Really relaxing and wonderfull place!
Pros:

Beautiful location in the mountains. Quite and relaxed area. House was well equipped and many nice accessoires in the house and in the whole terrain, The library is a nice addition, so is the mini market! Every day cleaning was excellent! And we really also liked the small gifts/snacks in the morning every other day - so nice! We could enjoy the lovely pool also, which was needed as we were there during 4 multi day 40 degree heatwave. Which brings me to the last benefit; excellent airco!

Cons:

The bed was slightly small for two (tall) adults. And we had to adopt the toilet paper discipline which was quite the experience. Nevertheless, the cleaning lady was there every day and it was not a big problem for us.
