Vafei's house in Shiva

Vafis House, a bright, airy and spacious 2 bedroom house with full kitchen and all the comforts of a modern home. It combines the traditional with the modern style and giving a pleasant note. The house is very cool in the summer and very warm in the winter so it makes your stay enjoyable all year.
The " Vafis House" is located on the main street of the village of Sivas, a vibrant, picturesque traditional village in southern Crete which is very close to some of the most beautiful beaches of southern Crete. The view from the house is very beautiful and very picturesque both towards the village and the surrounding mountains. We recommend staying at the "Vafis House" to enjoy a relaxing holiday and live true Cretan hospitality.

We love it

This is the third time we are staying in this apartment and we hope many more times to come. The apartment is very clean, nice kitchen with a large fridge, A/C in the bedrooms and not to forget, the lovely terrace that is as large as the apartment itself. We cannot recommend it enough.
