Evenings here are hard to beat – the pool terrace catches the last of the Cretan sun, and with a hot tub on hand for cooler nights, there's little reason to leave. The single-storey layout means the kitchen and living areas spill directly outside, making alfresco dining beside the pool the natural default. All three bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms and direct terrace access, so the outdoor space feels shared. Gerani beach is a ten-minute drive away, and local tavernas and a mini-market are close by near the village of Prines.

Home truths
The two twin bedrooms can each be reconfigured into a double on request – let your host know before you arrive if you'd prefer that setup.
While this is a single-storey home with all the living and sleeping spaces on the ground floor, the pool table is located downstairs in the basement, so it might not be accessible for those with reduced mobility.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's a private garage here for secure parking.
