Welcome to our holiday home, on the edge of the authentic village of Gavalochori, located on Crete in the beautiful green province of Apakoronos.

We found this dream spot in 2021 and fell in love immediately. The village, the atmosphere, but especially the beautiful unobstructed view of the Lefka Ori (white mountains). We have turned the house into our own cozy spot in recent years.
The furniture is new and the kitchen has been renovated and painted. The bathroom is spacious with a shower, sink and toilet. The 2 bedrooms are next to each other, one with a double box spring and one with two single beds. The lovely 7-metre long swimming pool is fantastic for cooling off on hot summer days.

The sea is close by, Almyrida is only 5 kilometers away. An attractive village with a beautiful beach and delicious fish restaurants. Can be reached on foot in 40 minutes, a beautiful route through the forest and olive groves. You can get there in 5 minutes by car or scooter.
You can reach the slightly larger Kalyves in about 10 minutes by car. In Kalyves you will find a large supermarket and several good tavernas, butchers and bakers.

Our house is ideal for 2 to 3 people. 4 people in consultation. It is not suitable for children or people with mobility problems due to the steps around the house.

Nature and environment
The house is located on the edge of Gavalochori in a neighborhood with detached houses. It is a quiet street, through which a herd of sheep and goats regularly walk. There is a very nice, friendly atmosphere. Within 10 minutes you can walk to the center where there are 2 supermarkets, 2 (good) restaurants, 1 kafenion (with tasty simple meals) and a bakery.
Gavalochori is a village where many artists and musicians live. Every year in July and August you can enjoy music evenings.

In the vicinity of Gavalochori you can find beautiful, authentic villages such as: Douilana, Vamos, Kefalas, Armenoi and Drapanos. Each of these villages has good tavernas where you can eat deliciously and cheaply (tips can be found in our information folder, which is in the house).
If you want to go to the sea, you can choose from Almyrida or Kalives nearby. Both villages have beautiful beaches, nice shops and plenty of tavernas by the sea.
Beautiful (marked) walks have been set out in all villages. You walk through forests, olive groves and small villages, often with beautiful views of the white mountains, or along the coast with beautiful views of the azure blue sea.
Routes are available in our house.

Chania airport is about a 45-minute drive away.
