For travelers in search of an experience, nothing says authentic country living like a stay at a private, working farm. Hosts might offer interactive kid-friendly activities or for couples, a cozy haven in an original/converted farmhouse. Breakfast is usually included – you may even be collecting the eggs yourself!
Michalis and his family were great hosts. They built a stone house in the steep mountain of their farm where they grow olive and carob trees. Our kids got to play with and feed their farm animals and we also learned how to make cheese. As we did not have a car, Michalis drove us around the area. He took us to see the water bottling plant (Zaros) which was very interesting for us as we had never been inside an automated factory.
Wonderful and unique stay. The hosts gave their 100% and were so nice. We got to feed the animals at the farm and hold a 2 week old baby sheep. The room was clean and spacious. It was even better than we thought and would definitely recommend. There was ac and wifi in the room. A donkey sanctuary near-by💖
This property is more than simply a farm stay. Our hosts were so warm, welcoming and passionate about show casing the traditional Cretan way of life.
The property was superb and had everything we could have wanted.
The location in a secluded mountain valley with a working farm was superb.
Amazing location and view. Gorgeous farmhouse well stocked with everything you could need including some lovely touches like wine and local raki. The little plunge pool was perfect on a hot day!
The location was the most important as we wanted to see stars at night time (we were a little unlucky as there happened to be a semi-cloudy night so we could not see so much of the night sky.) Breakfast was excellent, and we had it at the farmhouse, I recommend having it there as the scenery is nice.
There are a lot of farm animals which you could pet.
Silence at the night could only hear some goats in the surrounding area once in a while.
Clean and very welcoming hosts.
The environment is just Amazing, as well as the hosts who make everything marvelous ! We really enjoyed our stay at the farm house, we recommend it a 100%. And the breakfast is delicious !
The solitude , silence of the farm is very rejuvenating. The host , beautiful couple mikhalis and vallya are very down to earth, kind and excellent welcoming. I really had great time in farmhouse, felt re energetic. Farmhouse is overlooked to this beautiful Mountain and a fantastic outdoor bath brings it more closer to nature. Breakfast served in the farm house and varieties of Greek food to choose. Food was incredibly tasty. 👌. All the best.
We absolutely loved our stay at the farmhouse. It was built by the family that runs it, and you can see the love in every detail. We loved the candles everywhere, the outdoor shower and bathtub, and the goodies we were given, including homemade cheese pies, olives from the farm, and wine! was such a unique experience and we wish we could have stayed longer.
Thanks a lot for the wonderful stay in your farm house in the olive garden, the warm welcome and best ever breakfast! We will come again!
