"Kalami beach was a nice launch pad for Chania and other parts of Crete. The beach there is also relaxing, clean, and was easy access from the house. The hosts were very proactive and responsive. It was a nice place to stay after a visit to Athens."

"Hemos estado una semana con dos hijos adolescentes y fue perfecto contar con dos plantas de la casa independientes una de la otra. La vida la hacíamos en la casa de arriba, donde hay unas maravillosas vistas y una terraza preciosa para disfrutar de las comidas y momentos del día. Definitivamente recomendamos la casa y ojalá volvamos en un futuro cercano. Gracias por todo."

"What a great place this is. Very quiet and close to the see. You have a small beach almost to yourself. Emmanuel and Yannis are very friendly and always willing to help. A perfect place to see the western part of Crete. For sure I we would go to Kalami again if we would visit Crete again."

Anil

India

"The most beautiful setting. Having the beach at the bottom of the garden and being able to swim in the clear calm water any time, was just perfect. That is what we will miss the most and the view. The house was perfect for our needs, and the teenage daughter liked to have her own private area on the lower part of the house. Fully recommend this property and the hosts. Beautiful 😊"

David

United Kingdom
"Nous avons passé un fabuleux séjour dans cette petite maison pour la deuxième fois. Le calme, la mer et la vue sont parfaits pour décompresser. Le logement est parfaitement propre et Emmanuel & Yannis sont extrêmement prévenants et réactifs. La petite plage au bout du jardin était déserte en ce début de juillet. Prévoir quand même des chaussures pour éviter les petits cailloux et les oursins."

Facile à trouver, super appartement avec une belle vue sur la mer et la nature. La plage est au fond du jardin. La plage est très tranquille et peu peuplé. Très calme, à proximité environs 10 min en voiture de restaurant. Hôte très disponible et nous a donné des recommandations. Nous avons pu faire la longue randonnée des gorges de samaria grâce a leur conseil. Vraiment magnifique. Nous avons adoré notre séjour.

Dieses Haus mit großem Garten voller Olivenbäume direkt am Meer ist eine großartige Entscheidung, wenn du Ruhe statt Trubel suchst. Einfacher Check in, gekühltes Wasser zur Begrüßung in Kühlschrank, sehr schnelle und freundliche Kommunikation, viele Sitz- und Liegemöglichkeiten innen und außen, Küchensausstattung ausreichend, in 10-15 Autominuten Entfernung gibt es reichlich Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, herrliche Cafés und Tavernen. Es lohnt sich, dafür ein paar Kilometer ins Land zu fahren. Das Schnorchelerlebnis hast du hier direkt vor der Haustür. Das Haus und die Umgebung haben uns sehr glücklich gemacht!
