Anna was an exceptional host, ensuring that we were well catered for on arrival and throughout our stay. The house is just as pictured, beautiful, clean and well maintained. We couldnt have asked for more! Thank you Anna.
Anna was very helpful from the day I booked the property, providing all the necessary information and more to ensure a smooth stay.
I could not travel due to Covid in the end but Anna looked after my partner and his cousin nevertheless.
I promised myself I will visit Crete soon and I will book Anna's again!
Petite maison de pierre avec tout le confort très bien située entre mer et montagne
Anna nous avait mis au frigidaire plein de bonnes choses pour commencer le séjour
Je pense revenir en Crète car c est une île magnifique, nous retournerons dans la maison d Anna. Merci Anna
Wir verbrachten zwei wundervolle Wochen in Anna's Stone House, wo wir uns sehr wohl fühlten. Das Haus wurde liebevoll mi kretischem Charme eingerichtet, ist in eine üppige Pflanzenwelt eingebettet und bietet einen großartigen Blick auf die Weißen Berge in der Ferne.
Die Ausstattung von Küche und Bad ist sehr einfach, aber das Notwendige ist vorhanden. Empfehlenswert ist ein Mückenschutz für die Abendstunden.
Anna's Stone House ist ein perfekter Ausgangspunkt für vielfältige Ausflüge, für die ein Mietwagen unabdingbar ist. Die Taverne Aptera im Ort können wir sehr empfehlen.
Maison ancienne très bien rénovée dans un village très calme. Vie paysanne authentique.
On croise des brebis avec les agneaux. Ca sent le thym et les figues. On voit la montagne et la mer aussi qui n'est pas loin. Dépaysement ! Les chambres ne sont pas séparées mais les endroits de couchage sont à une certaine distance ce qui permet d'avoir son autonomie avec de jolis rideaux blancs :-)
My son and i had such a wonderful week in crete and annas stone house was the perfect place to stay and it made the holiday even better. Every time we came home from a days activities it was such a pleasure to relax in such a welcoming home. The coffee in the morning with such lovely views from the front or back garden was the perfect way to start the day. Some local produce was left for us at the house and the information left by anna about the area and things to do and where to eat was so much better than tourist info. We will be back for sure.
Logement traditionnel très agréable avec grand jardin et terrasse, idéalement situé pour visiter l’ouest de l’île.
Anna est très accueillante et très disponible
Très bon séjour dans cette charmante maison très arborés et avec de jolies fleurs. Les propriétaires sont adorables et aux petits
soins avec leurs hôtes.
Our stay at Anna's stone house was great and we had a perfect time. Anna was very friendly and offered us great welcome traditional treats. We really enjoyed the jacuzzi and the garden. Totally recommended and will be back soon.
Wir waren schon von den Bildern begeistert . Tatsächlich vermittelt das Haus diese Stimmung von Gemütlichkeit und Ruhe. Wir wurden mit Brot, Obst und Gemüse, Käse, Wein und selbstgemachtem Raki begrüßt. Auf Zusatzwünsche und Anfragen reagierte Anna immer sehr schnell und zuvorkommend.
Im Garten sitzt man sehr gemütlich und kann sogar die Spitzen der weißen Berge sehen. Leider war das Wetter noch nicht geeignet, die Badewanne im Freien auszuprobieren, dafür konnten wir aber die Hängematte im Olivenbaum, den Grill und den Kaminofen genießen.
The house is an old former oil mill, which has been turned into a holiday house by the owners by keeping the historic impression. The single room (with separate bathroom) house has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. It has a large garden with a terrace, lawn, jacuzzi, figs, grapes, lemons... Although there a several houses in the neighborhood, it is very quiet and relaxing. We spent 2 wonderful weeks there making tours to the different beaches and villages in the area and enjoyed nice summer evenings on the terrace!
We, a family of three spent 4 Nights in Anna's Stonehouse. Everything was perfect. The communication with Anna was fast ansd easy via Mail (because of covid she minimized any direct contact). The house was clean and in a good condition. The kitchen is small but functional and well equipped. Everything we needed was there: i.e.enough dishes, waterheater, teamaker, and many more. The house is comfortable and the front terrace invites to rest as well as the garden.
The house is about 10 min by feet from the small Centre of Aptera. The few taverns are very nice, the Crete food was very good indeed. Aptera is an ideal starting point to explore the area round Chania und the fantastic landscape of this region. In summary we would highly recommend to stay at Anna's Stonehouse!
Das Haus ist in der Tat eine Perle - wundervoll eingerichtet, mit herrlichem Garten, der zum Naschen und relaxen (Jacuzzi!) einlädt, und toller Aussicht auf Mehr und Berge! Am besten hat uns aber die Lage gefallen: als Ausgangsort für Touren im Bezirk Chania liegt es ideal - man ist sowohl schnell am lokalen Strand (10min), der Stadt Chania (20min) aber eben auch schnell auf 1500m in einem kleinen versteckten Bergdorf (25min) oder einer einamen Schlucht (30 min). Viele bekannte Ziele auf Kreta sind auch gut zu erreichen (Samaria, Matala, Kriti, Kourna Lake). Die lokalen Tavernen sind sehr zu empfehlen, der Mini-Markt im Dorf ist sehr praktisch.
Anna: vielen Dank für das herzliche Willkommen, die vielen Reisetipps, das Obst und und und :)
