Leander kert és környéke.

Ár-érték arányban nagyon jónak találtam. 2 hét 67e Ft-ért, szinte ingyen volt. A tulajdonos és a fiai nagyon segítőkészek, együttműködőek voltak. Beszélnek angolul. A hegyi környezet szép, nincs messze a tenger, de az út miatt javaslom a tengert valamilyen járművel megközelíteni (a bekötőút az országútra torkollik, járda nincs, hegyi részen van még kanyarban, gyalog veszélyesnek tartom). A bekötőúton gyenge felfüggesztéssel rendelkező járművel óvatosan kell közlekedni, elég durva kavicsok és göröngyök vannak. Én egy alap Wolkswagen Up bérelt kocsival voltam, elboldogultam, de sok helyen csak egyesben mehettem fel vagy le. Terepjáróval csöppet sem problémás. Kakos beach durván 800m. Jó strand, kavicsos, biztonságos, szerettem. Lerapetra város 10km. Van egy vízesés nem messze, de érdemes megkérdezni a tulajt merre van, mert a google becsapós lehet. Midenképp le kell jönni az országútig majd balra le a tavernáig és gyalog vagy terepjáróval balra fel. Negatívum: A terasz közös egy másik szobával. Ha a másik szobában is laknak, és ők kimennek a teraszra, az zavaró lehet. Első két nap 2 német nő volt a szomszédom, ők este sokat karattyoltak, de hála a koronavírusnak, egész kihalt volt minden, így zömmel egyedül voltam. :-) Wc, fürdő saját szobában. Ventillátor is van. Hűtő, konyha közös helyiségben. Ott van klíma is. A parkolás biztonságos, de csak a kijelölt helyen ahol egy fal véd a lehulló kövektől, szikláktól. A személyzet kedves és laza.
