Customer Reviews

/ / August, 2018
De retour de notre voyage en Crète, nous tenons à vous faire part de notre avis sur les 2 réservations faites à partir de votre site. Tout d'abord, celle réalisée au sein de la Ville du Soleil à Makry Gialos. Cet endroit est merveilleux où il y règne la tranquilité, la sérénité et l'authenticité. Manuela (française) et Kostas (grec) sont adorables; d'une très grande gentillesse et d'une disponibilité à toute épreuve. Le petit panier d'accueil avec les produits du terroir est attentionné et délicieux (confiture et petits-gâteaux faits maison), raki, huile d'olive... Nous nous sommes vraiment ressourcés et nous nous sommes laissés guider sur les bons conseils de Manuela (guide touristique) et Kostas (très bon connaisseur de son île) pour découvrir des lieux magiques et retirés de la foule. Nous conseillerons cet hébergement sans aucun problème. Restant à votre disposition, Cordialement, Karine, Louisa, Richard B.
