Location and surroundings:
The holiday home is in a quiet location on the outskirts of Pitsidias, a still typical Cretan village with gentle tourism. The original local dream factory has been part of this for years.

You can regularly enjoy concerts, groovy rock music and traditional Greek music with dancers here. Shops in the village: meat and delicacies, fresh bread, vegetables and food. At the Baecker on the road to Matala, you will now also find an ATM. And a bit further a dentist and a pharmacy with a nice selection of cosmetic products.

Franziska empfing uns sehr nett. Die Lage ist fussläufig zum Dorf. Es handelt sich um 2 Zimmer, die mit einer Terrasse verbunden sind. Einfache Ausstattung, Terrasse schön, leider konnten wir sie kaum nutzen, da es schlicht zu heiss war und kein Lüftchen wehte, das ist allerdings sicher nicht die Regel. Beide Zimmer klimatisiert, sehr angenehm, das eine Zimmer etwas dunkel, aber man ist ja eigentlich die ganze Zeit eh draussen. Komos Beach 5 Min. mit dem Auto, sehr schöner Strand und tolles klares Wasser. Bunga Beach Bar super. Viel zu besichtigen in der Nähe: Festos, Zaros etc.

Wir haben uns bei Franziska sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Lage der Wohnung ist für einen Familienurlaub optimal. Kurze Wege in den Ort (Supermärkte, Restaurants etc.), eine ruhige Lage und zum Strand lediglich 5 min Fahrtzeit mit dem Auto. Es gibt in dieser Ecke von Kreta viel zu entdecken und auch die Anbindungen an größere Städte wie Rhetymnon oder Heraklion sind gut. Die Unterkunft selbst war für unsere Zwecke voll ausreichend. Wir hatten trotz corona einen wunderschönen Urlaub und möchten uns auf diesem Wege bei Franziska für die stets offene und hilfsbereite Art bedanken! Unsere Kinder hatten dich und deine Katzen richtig gern gehabt. ;-) Vielleicht sehen wir uns irgendwann einmal wieder! Liebe Grüße, Familie Achilles

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit in Pitsidia und haben die wilde Schönheit des Südens sehr genossen. In unserem gemütlichen Zuhause fehlte es an nichts und der schöne Garten hat uns jeden Tag erfreut. Franziska hat uns das heimisch fühlen so leicht gemacht, als ob wir uns schon lange kennen würden. Vielen Dank dafür liebe Franziska!

Eine sehr gut gelegene Wohnung, nah am Ortskern von Pitsidia, sehr schön, um alle abendlichen Aktivitäten wahrzunehmen, sehr freundliche und zurückhaltende Vermieterin, unkompliziert und hilfreich. Viel Platz in der Wohnung, gemütliche Terrassen, innen etwas dunkel, ansonsten alles da, was wir bräuchten. Gerne wieder.

Très bon séjour à Pitsidia dans une location en rez-de-jardin très agréable et dépaysante . Cuisine et appartement bien équipé , jardin et environnement où l'on se sent vraiment en vacances ,pas très loin du centre mais pourtant assez campagnard . On recommande fortement ...
