Tolles Haus, wie beschrieben, hervorragend ausgestattet. Sehr nette, unkomplizierte Vermieterin, die den Kühlschrank zu unserer Ankunft mit allem Notwendigen gefüllt und darüber hinaus noch Muffins gebacken und einen Salat zubereitet hatte.
Wir waren 14 Tage in diesem wirklich hervorragend ausgestatteten modernen Ferienhaus.
Zur Begrüßung gab es einen vollen Kühlschrank mit Bier, Wein, Wasser, einem frisch gemachten griechischen Salat und griechischem Gebäck von der Vermieterin - umwerfend!
Der Ort Rodopos, in dem das Ferienhaus liegt, ist fernab vom Tourismus. Es gibt eine hervorragende Taverne mit einem supernetten Wirt, Stelios, der die Taverne mit viel Herzblut betreibt. Nach einer Woche wurden wir sogar von einer Nachbarsfamilie auf einen Umtrunk und echter griechischer Gastfreundschaft spontan eingeladen - herrlich!
Eine für Leute, die das echte Griechenland schätzen sehr empfehlenswerte Adresse, die ca. 10 Minuten von Kolymbari entfernt in den Bergen liegt.
We enjoyed our stay. It was a little tricky to find the house, but Christina was very helpful and welcoming. She had treats for us and provided us with some other food/staples.
The town is cute and friendly, the local restaurant was very good. It was 45-60 minutes from the Chania airport.
The space was great for our family and the outdoor patio was nice for meals.
Great stay at beautiful Cretian house and village with outstanding hosts
We enjoyed our stay at the Countryside house in every single way! It is located in a beautiful and traditional village, quiet and good for relaxation. We used a rental car for shopping and trips, with good distances to the beautiful beaches Falassarna, Elafonisi and Balos. We were so warmly welcomed by Christine and her daughter! The fridge was filled with lots of food, fresh lemons from their own garden and we were suprised with traditional Cretian food during our stay which was left at the front door. The house was even better, bigger, and more beautiful than the pictures already show. Everything is completely modern and renovated, with a high standard and love to details. The kitchen is even better equipped than your own at home - perfect for cooking dinner after a day at the beach. We enjoyed our meals on the spacious terrace. Thank you for making this a perfect vacation for us! We would have loved to stay longer and can fully recommend this house and its hosts!
