Sterei Mökki traditional house Amazing Seaview
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, 10 reviews
"Exo Mouliana is a little village away from the usual tourist route but lays on the main road so it’s easy to get to places. Other villages we visited would have a winding narrow road you have to navigate for half an hour just to get to the main road. This place is very conveniently located however the house itself is high on the hill so you don’t hear the road or the noise from the centre of the village. In fact it was quiet and peaceful at night and not hot at all thanks to the light night...

Hotel Sea Breeze
2.0 star property
8.2 out of 10, Very good, 106 reviews
"Very disappointing stay. This photos show a pleasant hotel with sea views. What we had was a view of the sea with a very ugly old half built building obscuring the view. The receptionist was surly, abrupt and generally unpleasant. No welcoming smile, I felt like we were a burden. The room was full of mosquitos. The bed was a bit like sleeping on a blanket covered rock and only 2 pillows. Breakfast the first morning... my husband is a diabetic and is not able to eat any of the cakes and...

The kitchen has plenty of equipment and a large Fridge/freezer. Super bathroom with a washing machine, and all the powder/conditioner needed to enable us to wash most of our clothes before we left. The views from the massive balconies was stunning. Being riggt in the town centre you can walk to loads of cafes &...

An authentic stone Cretan windmill
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 105 reviews
"A very unusual and quirky place to stay, it has been converted to a comfortable holiday home on a number of levels ( so you need to have full mobility). Our host was very warm and welcoming and we had some very interesting conversations. the beds were very comfortable , the kitchen was well equipped too. It was a peaceful location set in beautiful gardens off the main road but it was very easy to visit the next village of Palekastro for shopping and eating in the tavernas. Not far into Siteia if...

Picking up breakfast with freshly baked goods at the reception and eating on our veranda was a true delight. Perhaps we enjoyed it so much more because it was so far away."

"Maria hat uns unkompliziert in den Appartments empfangen, nachdem wir etwa 30 Minuten vor Ankunft angerufen hatten. Als wir sagten, dass wir in unserem Urlaub viel am Strand entspannen wollten, gab Maria uns sehr viele Tipps zu Stränden, die wirklich super schön waren! Sie konnte uns auch sehr viele, leckere Restaurants nennen. Rundum hat sie sich gut um uns gekümmert, Kaffee am Pool angeboten, einen Sonnenschirm geliehen... Die Appartmentanlage war sehr gepflegt mit vielen Blumen und...
