Pros:

The place & host where the true tourism is located. Definitely not for everyone but if you’re interested in culture, personal experience, knowledge of the place what you are going to visit, then Maria’s villa is the best for you. Thank you for the conversations and for the delicious breakfast every day. :)

Cons:

A lovely summer break with the Cretan cuisine, history and culture
Pros:

- Mary the host of the property: friendly and helpful with warmth and wilingness to share knowledge on Crete and Greece history, culture, tradition, politics and above all the Cretan cuisine
- the place among rocks and green with a big veranda, with direct access to the sea, where you can swim
- the breakfasts :) full of local delicacies that may probably be adjusted to anyone’s needs.
- location: not far from Heraklion and Rethymno, with a nice vilage Panormo in walking distance, close to nice beaches, beautiful mountain vilages and historical places.

Ik heb tot voor mijn verblijf hier nooit het gevoel gehad dat ik me thuis voelde...hier wel...
Pros:

Er waren vele dingen die mij bevielen. De authenticiteit van het verblijf, eveneens van de eigenares. De ongedwongenheid, de vrijheid, de gastvrijheid, de rustige sfeer die ik voelde.
Je wordt terug gekatapulteerd in de tijd.
Nochtans was de accommodatie aangepast een de noden van deze tijd.
Kortom het was ongeëvenaard.

Cons:

Iets wat goed is, dient niet veranderd te worden. Je mag alleen maar hopen dat het blijft bestaan...

La belle Crétoise...
Pros:

Tout! Très grande et
belle maison crétoise. Frigidaires et placards garnis. Lave-vaisselle et lave- linge. Maria très sympathique, que l'on peut joindre facilement. Herboriste et amatrice de fleurs ( jasmins, frangipaniers...)
Site extraordinaire, vue magnifique,terrasse panoramique, baignade au pied de la maison ( escalier en bois et rochers) ou plage de cailloux à 5 minutes( prévoir des chaussures), mer chaude. Maison aérée la nuit.
Village de Panormos ravissant ( plages de sable) à 1,5 km. Restaurants, supermarchés.
Rethymnon notre ville préférée à 1/2 heure, Spili dans la montagne à 1h. Matala au sud à 2 heures de route.Nombreux monastères à visiter.Nourriture moins chère qu'en France mais essence plus chère.
Pas de problème d'eau dans la maison (3 salles de bain). Suite parentale extra.

Cons:

Attention, bien repérer le panneau " Rodialos" sur la petite route du bord de mer , sortir AVANT Panormos en venant de la Canée ( aéroport) et aller doucement sur la route pierreuse qui mène à la maison.
Le bruit de la grande route Heraclion/ La Canée peut être gênant la nuit si on dort fenêtre ouverte. Si le vent se lève, on entend le ressac de la mer...

BEST HOST IN EUROPE, beautiful private beach.
Pros:

1) The host, Mary. She knows A LOT about Cretan and Greek history, was a TV correspondent, gives cooking classes and loves to chat.

2) The house has a private access, 30 meters from the entrance door, to a rocky beach. Easy access, clear water.

3) Breakfast.

4) Silence.

Cons:

Nothing. It was pretty clear to me whether I was going, expectations were settled. Perfect place.

Fantastic rural accomodation but still not far from the sights
Pros:

Calm accomodation, located away from the buzzing resorts in the middle of nature. Extremly nice and helpful host (Mary). Ideally situated for the exploration of the middle of Crete. Amazing Cretan breakfast - prepared freshly - by Mary. Beautiful private bay. Free wifi, private paking place.

Cons:

No insect screen. A long unpaved rocky road leads to the accomodation which is hard to find for the first time especially in the dark.
