The focal point of the room is a magnificent fireplace, its old stones weathered by time yet still radiating warmth.
The kitchen and the bathroom, though compact, are fully equipped with modern amenities discreetly integrated into the vintage setting.

On the other side of the bedroom, there is a lovely balcony terrace, equipped with sunbeds and umbrella, is the perfect spot to recharge while soaking in the Cretan sun, or simply admire the view overlooking the village and the gorgeous blue of the sea.
