About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A cottage perfect for quiet vacation, inside the nature and close to Samaria.

This amazing 19th-century cottage offers seclusion, privacy and a breathtaking view to make your vacation in one of the most popular islands in Europe as relaxing as possible. Strategically located between the north and south beaches of Chania it serves as the starting point and the finish line for every exploration... if you can get away from the comfort and the view!
This spacious cottage was built and decorated in the traditional Cretan way. The furniture, ambient and details will make you feel like living in a Cretan home. The island of Crete is unique in the proximity of its high mountains to the beautiful beaches and this cottage is the ideal combination of both. A great bonus is the cool mountain breeze that keeps the temperature comfortable throughout the hot greek summer.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
