Positive: We spent a wonderful week of vacation in a beautiful house on a hill with a magnificent view in Kato Archanes. If you're looking for seclusion and want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, hoping to spend time in a peaceful village atmosphere, this house in a Greek village on Crete will be a great choice: waking up to the sound of roosters and, in the evening, enjoying the cool air on the terrace while gazing at the night sky. The house is uniquely and tastefully decorated in a traditional style, with everything you might need (and even more) for both a short or a longer stay — whether you're a couple like us or a large family. There’s plenty of space and everything is well thought out for both adults and children, inside and out: an olive garden and farm animals (chickens, roosters, a goose, a turkey...), a dog, a cat, and a space for playing ball, ping pong table, swings... The host, Fotini, is exceptionally welcoming and attentive. She meets you personally and accompanies you to the house, giving a thorough introduction and anticipating every detail of your stay. She is always available if needed and responds quickly. Some other members of her family also won us over with their kindness and friendliness. Fotini treated us to her delicious olive oil, fresh eggs from her chickens... Even the regular drinking water tasted amazing! Thank you, thank you, thank you! We would gladly return and highly recommend this place to everyone.
Summary: The name of the villa matches reality!
