The house

Room for five, olive trees on every side.

Up in the olive groves above Xerokampos, a short walk from the sand at Alatsolimni. Good for a family, two couples or a few friends who’d rather skip the hotel corridor.

There’s a balcony for morning coffee and a pergola for the hot hours. The garden is walled and the gate closes, so kids can run around and the road stays outside.

We never let it by the room. When it’s yours, it’s only yours.

Nearby

Crete, on your doorstep.

A gorge full of wild goats, a Minoan palace by the sea and a beach backed by palm trees. All of it within reach of the house.

Beaches

Eleven beaches, a different one every day.

Xerokampos is a string of quiet bays. Soft sand at one end, wild coves you walk to at the other.

  1. Alatsolimni

    Right below the house, 300 m down the track. Soft sand, shallow water and a protected salt lagoon behind it.

  2. Argilos

    Natural clay in the rocks at the water’s edge. Smear it on, let it dry in the sun, then swim it off.

  3. The others

    Some have sunbeds and a taverna. Others you walk to, and often have to yourself.

  4. The village

    A few family tavernas and two minimarkets for bread and coffee. That’s the whole shopping trip, and nobody misses the rest.

Hi, we’re Nico and Diana

We run the house ourselves, so whoever answers your email is the one who hands you the key.

Ask us which taverna is open in May, or which beach is worth the walk. We’ll know.
