A green environment with hundred of species of plants trees, herbs and ponds around the guesthouse. One of the things that makes special this guesthouse is the biodiversity around it. Its important to share with people things like that. Brain Restart is our motive. And we achive this. How? Its a combination of coming closer to nature. Tasting fruits and vegetables from the garden, smells from the flowers ,images from the colours, tasting teas from the herbs and the most important that makes the experience special is Hospitality. High level of facilities is the aim. In the garden between the olive trees there is an alternative mini pool 1.60 * 2.80 cm that combines relaxation by using it as a pool or as a jacuzzi.The beauty of the garden and the old olive trees gives to the guests the maximum stimulation of the senses.
I used to live in Athens but 10 years ago i came to live in Crete. I'm Physiotherapist specialized in pain managment and i work by using techniques due to manage acute or chronic pain. My hobby is gardening, running and playing squash. I love living in a house surrounded by green and feeling the mental harmony that nature gives me. So i created a green area with plenty of different trees , plants herbs , colours , and a guesthouse between them, with view in the garden and open spaces in every corner of the house. The feeling when you are in , is freedom because you feel in the same time you are out. Our moto is << GET IN TO GO OUT>>. Very comfortable spaces inside and decoration connected with green and yellow colours , colours of olive and lemon.
70 meters from the guesthouse there is a traditional cafe , 100 meters 2 very nice tavernas and a mini market. Very quaiet neibourhood ,and a lot of beaches from 7 to 10 klm distance from the house
