Great location – absolutely peaceful, a real balm for the nerves. The host was wonderful, very kind and helpful, as was her family, and we truly felt welcome. Charming surroundings, beautiful and quiet beaches nearby, breathtaking scenery, and unforgettable sunrises over the sea. The accommodation was clean, cozy, and offered at a great price. We would be happy to come back again!

Wonderful view of the sea, the olive fields and a perfect place to watch the sunrise. Fotoula, our host, was extremely nice, helpful and generous. The Maridati beach is very close also. Vai is a beautiful 2h hike away, perfect place to enjoy the seaside. We'll be back :)

“Excellent accommodation for nature's lovers with or without children.”
Excellent accommodation, the beach only a 15 minutes walk. You don't hear the traffic at all, only nature's breath and a concert of myriads of cicadas during the day. At night you will be overwhelmed by the brightest stars.

“Quiet surroundings, beautiful view, extremely nice personnel”
We loved the view and the surroundings. Galini is close to Vai Beach, Itanos archeological site, Palaiokastro village and much more places worth exploring. You can observe sunrises from the terrace. We could stay there for a week. Also, the kitchen is fully equipped, Internet connection works perfectly fine, room was cleaned after 2 nights (we got new towels as well) and Foutula is one of the loveliest hostess we’ve met in Crete

“Coup de cœur de notre séjour !”
The best place we’ve stayed at during our time in Crete ! The view is amazing, for once there is decoration in the apartment, beautiful garden and a warm welcome from the owner. 5mn by car from the center and same time to go to the nearest beach. We would definitely come back !
