Undescribed Paradise: House on an amazing beach
Undiscovered Paradise: A spacious apartment, 100 meters from the sea. Perfect place for relaxation. You will enjoy seclusion, peace and isolated beaches with clean sand and crystal-clear waters. The nearest beach from the house is a 2 minute walk. Other than the weekends, during which more locals are present, the beach is generally uncrowded. It is also ideal if one likes to snorkel and explore the marvelous sights under the sea.
Furthermore in the vicinity, there are the ruins of Lasaea, an ancient city also mentioned in the Bible. In a distance of just five miles at the west, there is the natural port of Kaloi Limenes or “Fair Havens”. According to local legend as well as biblical scholars,it is asserted that Apostle Paul, in whose name a small church was built therein the 1960s), landed at Kaloi Limenes to preach the Christian faith in Crete.
Crisostomos is an excellent starting point to explore the whole of Southern Crete, including many wonderful beaches of Kaloi Limenes, Agiofaraggo, Kefali, Matala and Lendas.

Quiet house with a nice view on the sea
The house is as pictured, just above a nice beach with very few people (and two transats available). A warning: the last bit of road to reach it is very steep and not in a good state, with our rental car we couldn't take it - but there is space to park above which is a few minutes away then. If you can rent a Jeep or something higher, it's better to manage the road ;)
From there we could reach the Phaistos palace, the folk arts museum and the site of Gortyna. By the beach a restaurant is reachable with a nice terrace. Best to do some groceries before arriving or during the day as shops are further away from the house. We really appreciated that the hosts filled the fridge with breakfast items on the first day, and came again during the week to offer a delicious cake and some more raki - thanks for that!
All in all, we had a nice stay, taking the breakfast on the terrace looking at the sea is very nice and we enjoyed the quietness. A good choice if you want to avoid the crowds!

Griechenland wo es keiner kennt
Nette Fewo ganz abseits vom Tourismus, gut ausgestattet, schöne Sitzgelegenheiten mit Grill. Hatten den Strand für uns allein. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und bemüht. Wir haben eine Erstausstattung im Kühlschrank, Kuchen und Geschenke bekommen. Vielen lieben Dank! Wir wollten keine Touristen treffen, das hat weitgehend geklappt. Mit dem Auto haben wir die Ausgangspunkte für unsere Wanderungen erreicht. Auf dem Weg dahin gab es zahlreiche Tavernen und Gescjäfte. Wir kommen gern wieder.

14 Tage im Himmel
Anfang Oktober war wir zu Gast bei John und seiner Familie im Beach View Haus. Nach einer etwas abenteuerlichen Anreise wurden wir von unseren Gastgebern super freundlich empfangen. Die Gastfreundschaft war unglaublich. Eine große Schale Obst wartete auf uns. Der Kühlschrank war gefüllt, um 2 Tage ohne Probleme daraus zu zehren, Raki, Bier, Wein, Wasser und Olivenöl standen bereit. Sowas hatten wir noch nie erlebt. Das Haus hat alles, was man braucht, links und rechts keine Nachbarn (jedenfalls nicht als wir da waren), einen wundervollen Blick aufs Meer, Liegen und Sonnenschirm am Strand nur für uns. Das Meeresrauschen, oh mein Glück, was willst du mehr!!!
FAZIT: Noch nie auf unseren Reisen hatten wir so eine tolle Unterkunft und 800 Meter Strand fast für uns allein.
Nochmals vielen Dank für alles! Der Kuchen war lecker und das Olivenöl und der Raki sind gut zu Hause angekommen! :-)
Wir denken gern an die schöne Zeit zurück!
Liebe Grüße nach Kreta!

Traumhaft
Traumhaft schöne Lage mit Blick aufs Meer
Herrlich ruhige Umgebung (Strand und nicht vorhandene Nachbarschaft)
Anrührend gastfreundliche Vermieter, die uns mit Essen und Kuchen versorgt haben.Ein wunderbarer Ort zum Erholen. Lediglich die Zufahrt zum Haus war nicht erholsam, da es für uns fahrtechnisch eine Herausforderung war.
Wer Ruhe liebt, lange Anfahrt Wege zum Einkaufen nicht scheut, wird in dieser Ferienwohnung glücklich sein.

Wunderschön!
Die Ferienwohnung in Crisostomos ist der absolute Hammer. Die Vermieter Stella & John versorgten uns mit Essen & Getränke für die ersten paar Tage. Die Lage ist super, der weitläufige Strand ist 2 Minuten zu Fuß entfernt. Es waren kaum andere Urlauber am Strand. Ekaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es im nächsten Bergdorf ca 15 Minuten Autofahrt entfernt. Nach einer Woche kamen Stella & John erneut vorbei, um uns weitere Köstlichkeiten zu bringen. Die Wohnung ist sauber und sehr gut ausgestattet.
Vielen Dank, wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Eine herrliche entspannte Zeit
Die Wohnung hatte eine sehr gute Ausstattung.Die netten Vermieter haben uns schon mit einem gut gefüllten Kühlschrank erwartet.Der Strand eignet sich hervorragend zum Schnorcheln.Dort stehen 2 Liegen und ein Sonnenschirm die man nutzen darf.Am Wochenende ist der Strand etwas voller, sonst herrlich ruhig zum entspannen.Die beste Taverne Sfinias ist fussläufig in 20 Minuten zu erreichen. Dort konnte man sehr lecker und günstig essen.Leider haben wir sie zu spät entdeckt.Das einzige was nicht so optimal war ist die Matratze die war sehr unbequem.Aber da hat ja auch jeder ein anderes Empfinden. Die Aussendusche war super und es war herrlich mit Meerblick dort zu duschen.
Wir würden immer gerne wieder kommen.Danke auch für die Geschenke Raki und Olivenöl.
