Zach and Marina are charming hosts who made us very welcome. The house has been restored and furnished sensitively, there is lots of space inside and out, on those hot days the terrace gets a lovely cooling wind. Not to forget zacks amazing honey and olive oil, liquid gold.

we had a fantastic stay at this wonderful traditional village home, Marina and Zachari are fantastic hosts, very friendly, welcoming and informative, they advised us on the best places to visit around this stunning area of crete, beaches, tavernas, local sights and lovely walks in the surrounding mountains, and we were very happy to just stay at the house with its great outside space and relax for some days. The house is traditional and rustic, beautifully furnished, so much local and family history, it is spacious with all you will need for a relaxing stay, a real home from home. we arrived to find some of their home made olive oil, raki, wine and honey as welcoming gifts, a real treat! We cannot recommend this place highly enough, when we left the house at the end of our week here we had some days in chania. We enjoyed our stay so much that found a way to extend our stay on crete for another 5 days, so we telephoned zacharis and came back to stay at the house for these days, just fantastic!!!!!!!!!!thanks again to marina and Zacharis for a truly memorable vacation, we will be back in the spring of next year!
