Just like it says. Home in quaint little village. Very old town with only a tavern. Take your own supplies. Fully set up kitchen .l

The location is good - not in the touristy part of the island. There are a few hotels around, but the nearby town feels very authentic. There are very nice, simple, restaurants there. Walking and the town and eating with the locals just feels real here. You don't feel like a tourist. The way down to the beach is very beautiful. We enjoyed spending the 5 minutes to get to and from the beach. But be warned - it's some pretty steep and winding stairs, so not good for baby strollers or people with disabilities. Otherwise it is not hard, and a very picturesque walk. The beach is very natural and minimalistic, but we liked it very much because of that. No sunbeds, no bars. Just go down there, sit on the warm sand, swim in the beautiful sea, climb on the rocks - enjoy the nature. We visited early in the season, so there were very few people too. Most of the time we had the whole beach to ourselves! Everyone in the staff is very friendly. We stayed only a few nights but can remember all those friendly faces. It feels like you are a real guest there, not just another client to be served. Even the construction workers seemed nice (there was a bit of renovation happening). The owners are personally there, involved in the business. Had a chance to chat with the a little too. Interesting people. Good, real, down-to-earth business. We liked it. Breakfast and dinner are good. The selection is not overwhelming (the kitchen area is not very big), which I see as a big positive, but some people maybe might think it is too little. There are enough different dishes to keep it interesting and at the same time, if you plan it right, you can try almost every dish for each meal. And everything was good, without exception. Oh and the views from the room - the mountains or the sea, really can't go wrong either way, it's beautiful wherever you look. So overall, very positive experience. Recommend, would stay again.

The room we stayed in had everything as expected. Our room had nice views and the hosts were very helpful. It’s a 15min walk to the village where you can find a couple of cafes/restaurants. Tholos Beach was one of the nicest beaches of our stay, so the location is superb, especially if you prefer peace and quiet away from the touristy spots. We really feel like we got an authentic Cretan experience staying here.

Great stay and friendly staff. I definitely recommend it for calm and qualified vacations! I would definitely come back!

Simply perfect! I spent here 2 weeks. I booked the apartment with dining-living room and separate bedroom and it was the best choice ever. A big apartment with all the things you need. The kitchen is well equipped, with a brand new big fridge-freezer. All the necessary utensils: electric kettle, toast grill, filter coffee machine, small oven and hubs, all the pots and pans you might need. Clean and excellent service, towels and bedsheets changed regularly. The location is amazing, 5 mins from Ferma and from Agia Fotia. The road is with asfalt and there is a private parking place for your car. Thanks a lot to Manos, the owner, who really cares about his guests.

Very good beaches in that area. The pool is big, and even though not very clear, it doesn’t smell with chlorine, which is better than clearness of the water. For example down in the other hotel below on the hill, there is a pool which smells like sh*t and bad for your eyes, but with clear water. There was not many neighbors (around 5 houses occupied max, I think 20-30%), so that was also a plus. Not sure how it’s there when there are many people near the pool. The villa has 3 levels, but there is no reason for the third floor. You’d better lay next to the pool. There are only sun beds. I thought to buy and put a grill/barbecue there, but did not find any smaller and cheaper one. The kitchen and the hall are on the second floor, strange.

- Peaceful, isolated location, quick drive to plenty of beaches, equal distance from Ierapetra and Makris Gialos - Very friendly hosts, always present whenever we needed them. They even provided a last minute reservation for 1 more person. - Spacious apartment for a family - Plenty of private parking spots - Swimming pool seemed very clean, although we didn't use it

Spacious and clean. Lush surroundings and a gorgeous sea view

Absolutely unique experience and one of its kind. Residence is in desolated place, in true traditional houses with minimalistic electricity. However, don't be fooled - everything you need is provided by wonderful, helpful host. Even if you need to break your vows and recharge your phone - there is a possibility. PS. The mattress is very comfortable.
