Quiet and relaxing
The most relaxing holiday we have experienced...! Would have been nice to use the seating area by the lake but it was fenced off and overgrown. Nikos the host was very welcoming and always available if needed. Would definitely return, with a few improvements

Quiet secluded place for relaxing holiday
Very nice host and extremely helpful. We loved our stay here. The mountains around southern Crete are stunning. Very close to botanical gardens with a cafe which are really worth a visit

Quiet, Rustic Getaway
If you're looking for a quiet, rustic getaway , this is your place. The village has a decent market, the town taverna and coffee / bakery is also very good. No need to go far if you don't want to. If you do want to venture out, Spili is quite close and places like Preveli palm beach, Rethymno and others are all within a reasonable driving distance. The hosts were very friendly, accomodating, and responsive. Thank you J

A proper cretan property on it's own in the hills but within minutes of supermarkets
When we booked this property that has a lake we were worried there might be lots of mosquitoes....dont know if it's the cool mountain air but we have had no problems ..we sleep with the window open above the bed, it has a fly screen as do all the windows the cool breeze of the mountain air is much better than aircon.......the property is what we would call rustic...everything is here you would need..plackas and its beach is a 25 min drive away there are lots of taverns around in the local villages..the locations quite ummm there are frogs and crickets so you will get the sound of the country ...the pool is sufficient on a hot day as there are many ....cant fault the owners who are very generous with some home made wine and are very nice people ...a car is required as there is so much to see ......the propertie is up a winding road as are most or the roads in the area

The house is in brilliant location
The location of the house makes up for its rustic interior. The facilities are fine - the only problem was with the woodturner - a broken glass made it smoke into the room - fortunately it was warm enough not to be required. Nikos' farther looked after us - waiting more than an hr because our flight was delayed & provided a top up of local wine FOC & a welcoming snack with Raki. We stayed for a week early may - if you don't like frogs then be aware the pond is full of them and they sing all the time! We will return and stay again

Heerlijk rustig verblijf
Huisje ligt heerlijk rustig op een groot stuk grond, met een eigen zwembad. Behalve vogels, pauwen en kikkers hoor je niets. De keukenuitrusting is erg basic. Twee gezellige katten. Wij hebben steeds bij Petrokino in Mixorouma gegeten, een paar minuten met de auto. Daarnaast zit de supermarkt/bakkerij.

Séjour à la maison du lac
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour de 15 jours à Lampini. Les extérieurs ombragés et la piscine sont très agréables l’été. La maison est au calme dans région de Spili ( qui reste pas trop touristique l’été), à 30mn des belles plages de Preveli et Plakias mais aussi de Rethymnon et Arkadi. Un grand merci à Nikos pour son accueil prévenant et sa disponibilité !

Rural place in beautiful nature
People who love nature, animals and quiet surroundings will definitely love this place, like we do. In the morning you give a bit of oats to the 2 horses, you see ducks in your garden and geese looking for attention while the big fish in the pond are waiting for a little bit of left overs from the bread. Swallows come to drink at the pond as well and in the evening you get a lovely concert from the frogs. 2 cats we called Minou and Rambo are also present, one is very affectionate, Rambo just comes by for some food every 3 days and goes on his mission again. The hoouse has 2 bedrooms, a large living room and a shower in the bathroom/toilet. For people who are looking for a fully equiped kitchen it might be a bit too basic but we enjoyed the 2 restaurants with good lovely food. O Sideras in Lampini, very lovely owners and they even make meals on order if it is not on the menu and you are able to wait for a day, or 2 for them to prepare. Petrokofino in Myxorrouma, also very close by, is a perfect location to taste there greek meals. We loved the stay, Nikos and his father are very nice hosts, they bring some groceries and wine + raki, which is a nice gesture.
