Other things to note
Are you looking for a holiday home away from the touristy noisy areas of the island but still at easy reach to the most beautiful beaches and landscapes of Chania? Do you enjoy watching starry nights or breathtaking views of the moon as well as day and night views of the city of Chania and the golf of Kolimbari?

Whether you are a couple who dreams of a romantic relaxing holiday, a family who enjoys the beauty of nature, breathtaking views and the warm hospitality of the locals, or a group of friends who want to explore somewhere different but still stay together and be at an only 20 mins drive away from the night life of Chania city centre or Platanias, our studios will meet your needs!

The strategic position of the location will offer you a vast choice of short drive day trips to the famous beaches of Balos (60mins), Falassarna (40mins), Elafonissi (80mins), Paleochora (70mins) and many more!

The local people are very friendly and will be happy to sell their home produce such as fresh eggs, homemade local fresh goat cream cheese, homemade thyme honey, fruit, vegetables, raki and rakomelo.
