Guestbook

De eerste 3 weken van oktober genoten van deze parel op Kreta.
De villa’s zijn over compleet en van alle gemakken voorzien en zeer smaakvol ingericht. En wanneer je vindt dat er ook maar iets ontbreekt dan zorgt de eigenaar ( konstatinos) dat het er komt.
Hij is een schat van een man die zich tot doel stelt dat je een zorgeloze en geweldige vakantie krijgt. Hij geeft je het gevoel van thuis komen. Wij kunnen iedereen die een vakantie met comfort en rust wenst deze parel aanbevelen.

A week in February was definitely off season, as we had Samonas to ourselves. The views from the top floor were amazing, roast chicken on the outdoor BBQ pit was delicious, and the hikes around Crete were gorgeous (and not crowded). We loved coming back to our suite in the evening, to have supper in our cozy suite with an evening fire. Constantinos was an amazing host- surpased our expectations with the most incredible breakfast (You MUST include at least 1 breakfast in your stay-otherwise you have cheated yourselves of the tastest local fare!!). We arrived late in the evening in the dark, Constantinos greeted us with wine and small bites so that we did not have to leave to find dinner. Throughout the week he surprised us with little treats- avacados or oranges left at our door. Constantinos we admire your hard work to restore this beautiful location-THANK YOU.

Thanks to you both for such a wonderful stay. The views spectacular, the villa just beautiful and the breakfast incredible, what more could we have wanted? We appreciate all the use of local products too.

Thanks again.

Thank you for everything.

We felt like princesses. It’s normal in the house of an imperator!

We bought some mizythra and we couldn’t finish it and don’t dare to carry it: we left it in the fridge. Thank you also for the beautiful music.

Say thank you to Nico for the wonderful coffee.

Kalimera!

Thank you, our holidays in Crete where so quiet and fine, in large part due to the Samonas.

Each evening we find tranquility for the night. Each morning we have so surprising and good breakfast.

You are, Katherina and you, charming persons and quite nice. Yesterday we try to see you before going to the so good taverna of the village. After, we are surprise to see your packet.

Thank you!

Nadia, Yoam, Eric and Mateo

Konstantinos, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. A very lovely “home away from home”. We’re impressed by your various talents and will definitely recommend Samonas to others.

Katerine thank you for your clean up efforts and the cake in the morning.

Dear Konstantinos

we have loved staying at Samonas, of all the places in Crete we loved your villa best of all. You have put so much of your heart and soul into this place, with so many extra “touches” of good taste and craftsmanship. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality and we hope your business does really well.
