OUR REVIEW
Falasarna is legendary for its "wide-openness" and its
endless stretch of beach, of sand, of alcoves, of enough sea-lapped
frontage to allow you to find the part that suits you best, that feels a million miles
from the fray. You will be able to enjoy all of that and be above it all!
After the village of Platanos has disappeared and the vistas of the sea
and expanses of mariners' dreams beyond Crete seem to have disappeared,
you will round a bend in the road and there, the vision of two well-chiseled stone villas
makes you
wonder "who owns that?". Well this is your villa now.
Falasarna Villas.
A large pool, a terrace and views over Falasarna
bay and out to sea, the truly-Cretan hills to the front and to the south,
but look yonder and the sea beckons.
This is a well done thing. Solid wood front door leads into the
country-house-rustic modern living room, step up to the dining and
well-equipped kitchen area and survey the possibilities for your
own inspired meals and those breakfasts to launch the days to come.
A nice touch is a trunk filled with various Cretan wines which you pay
for what you consume - they are a good selection and introduction to
what is happening in wines on the island of Crete.
The three neat and functional bedrooms all have their own private bathroom -
you can shower and return for a snooze in the morning if persuaded to do
so - without even having left the room!
