The Kato house is a traditional jewel, lovingly restored and more than remarkable.We are confident that it is the best accommodation of its type in the area. Outside its private, shady courtyard with soft seating/dinning/barbecue area is dominated by the sweeping view of Elounda, the Mirabello Bay and the purple Sitea mountains.-perfect for lazy lunches or dinning on warm moonlit nights.

The mezzanine bedroom has a sheltered balcony overlooking the bay and the mountains, a truly spectacular view, with the night time lights of Elounda harbour reflected in the sea.Perfect for watching early sunrises, fishing boats chugging out over the bay through the canal and romantic moonlit nightcaps.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
We had the most wonderful 2 weeks in this beautiful house. The house itself is quirky, traditional and just charming and the sea views are sensational. The walk up and down the hill each day definitely kept us fit(!) but we loved the location and found it a very special and memorable place to stay with everything supplied that we could possibly need.Our hosts were extremely kind and helpful and made us very welcome.We loved the experience of living in a greek village in such an authentic house, swimming in the turquoise sea every day and enjoying the delicious food on offer in the waterside cafés and restaurants of Elounda. We hired a car for 3 days to explore the area a bit more and some of the archaeological sites but found plenty to do and enjoy in and around Elounda.We're rather sad to leave and hope to visit again.We're very grateful to Jessica and Zach for a wonderful holiday.

The house is as described (calm, ocean view, wood and stone) and Jessica is a caring and kindly owner. Definitely a recommendation.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2019
This house from Zacharias and Jessica a perfect place to stay. All around, the possibilities and the distnace to interesting places, more than 5 stars. As I understand, the house was done by Zacharias himself, he is a brilliant Stone and Wood worker. All around and also the view above the sea, perfect. We are sure, if we ever come again, we will stay at Jessica and Zacharias.

Met Jessica's sister on arrival .Got a lift with luggage which was an experience .. did not realise how steep the hill up to the house was.. it was hard work after a lovely day in Elounda..the taxi will not take you up and only drop you off at the bottom of the hill .if you do not want to drive on holiday this house is not for you ..Elounda was amazing and we had a great holiday and met lots of lovely people which made our holiday .The house just wasn't for us great views but didn't see Jessica much for support or advise .
