Host review score
This accommodation is located in a beautiful picturesque village in Heraklion, Crete. The village is called Gouves and it is located 16 km east of the city of Heraklion and 8,5 km to the west of the famous touristic resort, Chersonissos. The location of the house can only but be approved once more as its distance from the beach is a 5' walk and provides its guests with easy access to super market, mini market, cafeterias, an aquarium, gas station and restaurants (one of the best Italian and Mediterranean kitchen restaurants in Heraklion is 10 meters away from our doorstep). Its enchanting views of the horizon and the sunset will take your breath away as you relax in one of its outdoor spaces (balcony, terrace, porch) gazing in astonishment.
