Monthly Rentals in Stavrochori

Beautiful stone cottage in a mountain setting 20 minutes from Sitia. Stunning scenery! Villagers extremely welcoming and hospitable bringing wonderful Cretan baking. Host gave us a private tour of the nearby archeological site and then delivered dinner to us! We were fortunate enough to be given a walking tour of the mountain by a fellow Canadian in the village. An unforgettable experience in a warm community. A car is needed and follow Nikolaos’ directions carefully.

Popi’s hospitality is beyond everything we have experienced. (See all the other reviews! Sooo caring with words and food).Her garden is super beautiful, the apartment is small and cozy, the terrasse is a lovely and sunny and the surrounding wonderful and peaceful. It is a small village and quit in the winter. If you like nature and the simplicity of life, including a heart-to -heart connection with your host, you should come here!!! We will never forget this outstandingly beautiful first vacation with our 5 month old son. We also got a baby bed. We so hope to come again <3

I strongly recommend staying there!The apartment is located right above the sea, so you can only imagine how stunning the view is. I was hyptonized by the sea, spending hours sitting on the balcony to enjoy the sun from morning to evening, with the sound of the waves. This was a perfect setting as a solo traveler to take some time for introspection and for work on my laptop too (wifi connection was very good!). Everything is provided for you to cook and the bed was very comfortable. Nearby there are several supermarket, a bakery, and the location is good to explore the eastern part of the island. Just maybe if you are very tall it might be uncomfortable for you to climb up and down the stairs to the bed as it's on a mezzanine (I myself hit my head once lol but the area where it happened is padded so no harm, it wasn't an issue to me!) Manos was very friendly and welcoming, and super responsive whenever I needed. Thank you for the great stay! I will be back :)

The apartment is very clean and just a few steps from the beach. Ioannis is really helpful and nice person.
