Pros:

Such a wonderful stay there. We stayed for a week. The villa is in convenient location with easy access to Heraklion and the beaches in the South of Crete. Breakfast was very good with different freshly home-made pastry every day. The pool is useful for refreshing after a day of walking or sunbathing in the sea. Room is clean and comfortable. My son loved looking at the star from the backyard and so many stars can be seen from there. Will stay again when we come back to Crete!

A little bit of paradise
Pros:

A special place in the countryside just 1/2 an hour from Heraklion. Beautifully restored. Quiet. Sumptuous breakfast . Staff wonderfully gracious and incredibly helpful. We used the Villa as a jumping off place to visit sites of interest but next time we're booking to stay put. Can't imagine a better place to spend a week and relax.

one of the highlights of our vacation to Crete
Pros:

The inn have restored to its original charm in the middle if Cretes wine region.
If there are six or more staying at the inn dinner is offered and what a treat!
i highly recommend it!!! One of the best meals we had in Greece. We dined on traditional greek food made with the owners own olive oil and drank his own wine as well.
It was Evenings shared dining with other foreign travelers that will always be so special along with the tremendous hospitality. A truly unique experience especially if you love food and wine!

Pros:

We stayed at Villa Kerasia for 4 nights and totally enjoyed the hospitality, the property and location of the beautiful villa.
We did not wish to stay in Hereklion, so for us it offered a perfect alternative providing you have are travelling by car.
The room was beautiful and well appointed and Babis was an excellent host.

Thank you for the lovely experience.
