Villa Koutsakis ★★★

"I would like to say that this is the only negative experience in two weeks of holiday in Crete, with three huge oil ships to be trapped off the beach and one industrial establishment on the right. The beach is directly accessible from the hotel but it was under absolute degradation (waste around, broken shadows, artificial swamp pieces in the sand and large red-red nets on the edges of the beach). The rooms were completely scrapped and furnished with a garden table and some plastic chairs, so not suitable for dinner: two beds on three were rounded to not move at night. The "kitchen" consists of two malfunctioning electrical plates, one pad and a few stove, a mini refrigerator we had to turn off at night because it was lying every 10 minutes. Of course there is no trace of boiler, coffee machine, Plates ... all things we have always found in apartments that, among other things, cost much less. So in practice it is impossible to cook even a plate of pasta. In addition, the villa is located in a completely isolated area from everything: The first village with a mini market is about half an hour drive away, there is a decent single tavern in the surroundings, to reach the villa there is a fancy road and the last track is completely shredded in critical and very rigid conditions, I would like to add the only opinion that can be considered subjective about the owners' attitude that personally seemed unpleasant and cold. Not that they were hostile, because they answered my questions, but nothing to do with the sun and warm attitude that made us in love with Crete. In short, better avoid the villa Koutsakis, there are countless other better and even more cheap places where they spend the days."
