So, the house is a very convenient starting point for some of the most famous destinations of southern Crete, such as Matala and Agia Galini touristic villages, the metropolis of the Minoan civilization (Festos, Agia Triada and Gortina), beautiful traditional villages such as Kamilari, Pitsidia, Sivas and Voroi, the mountains of Psiloritis and Asterousia with many picturesque villages and outstanding natural paths for hiking.
The area offers activities such as snorkeling, swimming, canoeing, wind-surfing, scuba diving, hiking, horseriding in nature, cycling, jet/ water skiing, water tubing.
The colours of the olive plantations, orange and lemon trees, the smells of the wild rosemary, thyme and sage and the sounds of the the cicadas and crickets convey the Mediterranean atmosphere. The mass tourism has not arrived here yet!
The visitor will have the opportunity to enjoy the Mediterranean cuisine in its most honest version since he/she can taste some of the most famous greek products such as olive oil, honey, wine, herbs, fruits and vegetables at the place where they are actually produced! In the small villages in the area around you can find tasty taverns with traditional cuisine and live music and smell the aroma of greek coffeee in the traditional cafes/kafenions.
Furthermore, in nearby larger resorts, there are several nightlife options.
