a lovely, very individual, house in a stunning location, on a beautiful stretch of coast
The house is very much a labour of love, and unlike the usual identikit "Villas" that scar the Med ! - lots of quirky features - the setting is amazing with unbelievable views. Facilities are all good - this is a house for living in. We have done a lot of South Crete, and this area is arguably amongst the best - beautiful bays and beaches to discover, some perfect Tavernas, and, in Kerames, a lovely unspoilt hill-village without a nod to tourism, just friendly people ! easy couple of hours drive from Chania - Paul was a great host too ! Highly recommended ! PS - if its windy, the cove at Ag. Fotini is sheltered !

Living in a recreative sanctuary
The house is embedded in nature and situated in an absolutely quiet, peaceful and grounded environment. The panorama view from the house over the coastline is amazing and overwhelming. Because all the little roads in the region are covered with asphalt, the success to the beaches going by car is easy and needs only a few minutes. We are really glad and thankful that we could stay here for two weeks. Especially, we thank Paul Readman (the owner) for his helpful hints and the support he gave us promptly and continuously during our stay at the house whatever the issue was. We met Eleni Readman only a short time, but she also is a very personable, friendly and open-minded person. So, alltogether, we enjoyed our vacation at Elia Petra fully!

rundherum zufrieden
Das Haus ist groß und geräumig und mit den beiden Terrassen und dem Garten einfach traumhaft zum entspannen. Die Einrichtung lässt keine Wünsche offen. Die Kommunikation mit Eleni und Paul war herzlich und unkompliziert. Wir können das Ferienhaus uneingeschränkt empfehlen und kommen gerne wieder.

Wunderbares Ferienobjekt
Alles war bestens, man sollte sich nicht mit Kleinigkeiten zu sehr auseinander setzen, diese waren nach ein paar Tagen vergessen. Die Hausherren waren immer zu stelle und halfen uns wo es ging. Sehr wunderbares Ferienobjekt hat uns sehr gefallen, waren mit Kindern und die hatten auch ihr Spaß gehabt. Strände in der nähe waren sehr Nett und der Beach in "Triopetra klein" war auch für die Kids am besten. In diesem Sinne sehr gerne wieder.

Schönes Haus, tolle Aussicht, sehr hilfsbereite und freundliche Vermieter
Das Haus ist sehr schön, geräumig und gut ausgestattet. Alle Zimmer haben einen tollen Ausblick auf das Meer und sind liebevoll eingerichtet. Da das Haus alleine liegt, ist es wunderbar still (abgesehen von dem Wind, der nach einem ruhigen Tag immer mal wieder auftritt). Wind, Berge, Sternenhimmel und Sonne - das Haus liegt inmitten einer beeindruckenden Natur an einem steilen Hang. Bis zum Meer ist es nicht weit. Man kann sogar dahin laufen, wenn man einen Spaziergang von ca. 45 Minuten nicht scheut. Die naheliegenden Strände sind traumhaft, das Meer sehr sauber, die Tavernen gut und die Menschen sehr freundlich. Wir (zwischen 20 und 49 Jahren) haben uns drei Wochen richtig wohlgefühlt. Abends haben wir gerne auf der unteren Terasse gesessen. Der Vermieter Paul Readman ist freundlich und besonders hilfsbereit. Wir konnten ihn immer anrufen, wenn es eine Frage oder ein Problem gab.
