Pure Relaxation

The communication wih the host Ioanna was easy and friendly from the very beginning. The day we arrived we got a warm welcome and found a typical greek meal already cooked for us in the kitchen :-) Never have seen something like this before. Ioanna gave us tips where to go to, invited us to coffees in her lovely garden and there was always time for a talk with us. The garden is beautiful, the house as well. Everything is there you need. We had coffee, tea, selfmade olive oil, Raki and red wine made by Ioanna. We absolutely enjoyed the terrasse in the afternoons and the garden in the morning. The view is great and we already miss it a lot. Ioanna is an outstanding person and she is a great exampe of Greek hospitality and friendliness. We definetely recommend the place for a good time to relax and to start from there to the beach and the mountains for activities. If we go to Crete the next time, we will stay there again. Thanks to Ioanna for all gifts and the time you spent with us.

Einzigartig

Das Haus entsprach voll und ganz der Beschreibung. Zu erwähnen ist, das es auch andere Vermietungen auf dem Grundstück gibt, die uns jedoch nicht gestört haben. Wir wurden von Ioanna sehr herzlich empfangen und immer wieder zwischendurch mit traditionellen Kleinigkeiten versorgt. Noch nie hatten wir eine so nette Gastgeberin, die sich fast jeden Tag kümmert und nach dem Rechten sieht. Die Lage des Grundstücks ist sehr zentral und man ist schnell am Strand.

Formidable !

Le logement est calme, agréable, moderne, très bien équipé et fidéle aux photos. Il y a toujours de l'ombre sur la terrasse ou parmi les oliviers. La localisation est pratique pour visiter la région de Matala. Il faut que vous rencontrez Ioanna. Elle cultive avec soin l'art de l'accueil. Son sourire est un rayon de soleil. Elle aime son pays, elle vous fera découvrir ses talents culinaires et vous donnera de bons conseils touristiques. Efcharistó polý Ioanna.

Hervorragend

Wir wurden unglaublich herzlich empfangen. Unseren Gastgeberin hat sich auch im Verlauf des weiteren Aufenthalts um uns gekümmert. Vor allem: sie führt Gäste zusammen, so dass der Kontakt zu anderen Gästen sehr schnell und unkompliziert möglich wird. Wir sind sehr dankbar und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Ruhiges Haus im Olivenhain mit wundervollen Blick

Wir haben zwei wundervolle Wochen in Ioannas Haus verbracht. Das Haus liegt ruhig in einem Olivenhain mit Garten mit schönem Blick auf das Meer und Hügellandschaft der Nachbardörfer. Kalimari ist ein kleines, typisches Dorf mit Mini Markt und einigen gemütlichen Tavernen mit sehr gutem Essen. Ioanna ist ein wundervolle Gastgeberin, sie hat uns bei unserer Ankunft spätabends mit einem leckerem Abendessen + Wein und der Frühstücksausstattung für den nächsten Morgen erwartet und uns viele wertvolle Tipps für die Umgebung gegeben. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Tolle Aussicht mit Garten

Das Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet, es hat nichts gefehlt. Die Vermieterin hat uns sehr freundlich mit Essen und Kuchen empfangen und dabei viele wertvolle Tips für die Umgebung gegeben (Strände, Tavernen, Ausflüge). Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Aussicht und der Garten sind toll.

Fantastique !

Notre séjour à Kamilari a été formidable à tout point de vue. La maison située en haut d'une colline offre un panorama époustouflant, au milieu des oliviers et est très bien équipée. De plus, Ioanna est une hôte formidable et très sympathique qui prend soin de ses invités (quel plaisir ce dîner le premier soir et toujours une attention pour nous et les enfants) et nous avons passé d'excellents moments à discuter avec elle. Nous recommandons vivement cette maison. Merci pour tout Ioanna. Our stay at Kamilari was great in every way. The house is situated on top of a hill with a breathtaking view, surrounded by olive trees and is very well equipped. In addition, Ioanna is a wonderful and very friendly host who takes care of her guests (what a pleasure that dinner was on the first evening and always a care for us and the children) and we had a great time talking with her. We highly recommend this house. Thank you for everything Ioanna.

Traumhaft und tolle Gastfreundschaft

Wir haben eine wunderschöne Woche verbracht und würden am liebsten immer noch auf der Terrasse mit dem schönen Blick sitzen 😎 Ioanna ist eine herzliche und unkomplizierte Gastgeberin, die uns verwöhnt hat. U.a. Mit selbstgemachtem Olivenöl!!! Der Garten ist ein Traum. Ausflüge super möglich. Der Ort Kamilari prima. Kurz: wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen!

GENIAL

Quel accueil! Ioanna nous a accueilli d'une manière tellement sympa. Levés depuis une heure du matin, elle nous a accueilli à 15 heures à sa table en toute simplicité. Le logement est encore mieux que sur les photos. La vue mer est à couper le souffle. Le calme uniquement perturbé par les cigalles et les grillons... Bref, les vacances avec un grand V. La localisation permet d'aller se baigner à 10 minutes de là, et de visiter le sud de la Crète en toute quiétude: Matala, Faistos, Kokinos... Nous recommandons très fortement cette location.
