The Kournas Lake is the only freshwater lake in on the Island of Crete. The waters are especially calm and visitors enjoy the peaceful setting.The many tavernas provide the perfect place to enjoy and drink or meal looking out over the lake. In the summer the lake shrinks slightly creating a temporary beach where visitors can sit on the sun loungers and relax in the sun or may rent a pedalo and spend time floating around the lake.
We can provide you more details about the sightseeing of the area.

Could NOT Have Been Better!!!!!
Well, how about PERFECT IN EVERY WAY! I could not say one bad thing about the villa or the owners. Melina and Stelios were fantastic hosts and treated us like royalty. Melina had actually made a us a pasta meal, pastitsio, and it was ready when we arrived. It was delicious and lasted two of us about 3 meals! The villa had EVERYTHING you need! It was beautiful, up a road into the countryside, overlooking Episkipo beach. We had views of the sea and of the mountains. We watched sunrises and sunsets from the terraces at opposite ends of the villa. We sat for hours in the cool shade of the picnic patio (huge). It was quiet and secluded. It is right between Chania and Heraklion, which made it perfect for us to see sites in both areas. Melina even arrange our anniversary dinner at an excellent restaurant. Plus they gave us many tips on local places. 6 night was waaay too short. If we get to return, it will be for a month, at least. I cannot recommend the villa or Melina and Stelios highly enough!!!

Perfect stay in Crete
My two sons and I just returned from out trip to Crete. I'm so happy with this homeaway home. Melina, the home owner, was so helpful! Even before we left The States she was answering questions for me and making phone calls on the island to set up activities. She went above and beyond! Being so far from home and traveling as a single woman with two kids it was comforting feeling like I knew someone when we got there. The house was beautifully decorated. I loved the upstairs decks in the morning with the warm sun on them and views of the ocean and sheep in the field. The house was also spotless! Floors moped, bathrooms clean, comfortable linens that are changed out every three days by a house keeper. While on the island, Milana made some more calls for me to set up a tour and to make sure I was getting a good deal. She made great recommendations and gave me good directions. It was our Easter during out stay (Greece's Easter a week later) The home owners made a nice table of traditional Easter treats, cookies, dyed red eggs, Cheese pies, Raki etc. So happy to have met she and her husband and thrilled with our choice of houses for our holiday.

A prefect place to enjoy Crete
Melina and Stelios are great hosts,, good communication from time of booking to end of holiday. The villa is very well equipped with everything that you need to enjoy your holiday, even beach towels. We enjoyed the outside space including the barbecue and pizza oven and the upper deck was a nice place to enjoy a glass of wine. Melina madeus a casserole dish of Greek pasta of which we ate every last morsel. Would recommend this villa to anyone visiting Crete.

Beautiful property, wonderful hosts!
We arrived at Episkopi beach where we were met by Stelios, Melina's husband. He brought us from the highway, to make sure we would find our way. The hospitality and help that Melina and Stelios offer is exceptional, and much, much appreciated!! The property is very comfortable and great indoors and outdoor space. While quite close to the main National road in Crete, so quite convenient, it is far enough that you hear nothing but an occassional farm animal. Lots of olive and fruit trees. Distant views of the ocean. Wish I could be there again!

Just as described and a wonderful holiday!
Our holiday was perfect - exactly what we wanted. The villa is very peaceful and secluded, very accessible to a beautiful beach and, if you hire a car, to village shops and delightful places in this part of Crete. Melina and Stelios have made this lovely house very comfortable, and were keen to help if we ever had problems, which happily we never did.We really loved it there!

Just perfect!
We've spent one week at this beautiful place. Villa is very comfortable and has everything that one can think about. What is especially great is the location. It was so great to sit outside and enjoy the evenings - no city noises, olive trees around, fresh air and beautiful sky. It is obvious that Melina and Stelios care about their guests and always make sure that everything is perfect. Thank you very much for everything! Stelios, thank you for the recommendation of "Arkoudaina Garden", it was really the highlight of our stay!

Total entspannter Urlaub
Wir waren mit vier Erwachsenen 11 Tage im Haus. Der Kontakt mit Melina war über die gesamten Tage außergewöhlich gut. Sie hat uns jederzeit bei allen Fragen und Problemen geholfen. Es fing schon mit der Begrüßung an. Ein Auflauf war schon im Ofen und Getränke im Kühlschrank. Dafür nochmal ein herzliches Dankeschön. Sie hat uns alles Wissenswertes in Ruhe erklärt und gezeigt. Die Unterkunft ist mit allem ausgestattet was man für einen erholsamen Urlaub benötigt. Alles ist in einem sehr guten Zustand. Die Lage in einem Olivenhain ist ruhig, abgesehen von den pflichtbewußten Hähnen in der Umgebung. Der Strand, mit einen schönen Beachbar/Taverne und kostenfreien Liegen, ist in unmittelbarer Nähe. Zum Einkaufen benötigt man einen fahrbaren Untersatz den man auf Kreta sowieso haben muss. Wir hatten einen schönen Urlaub in der Unterkunft. Von uns aus absolut Empfehlenswert !!!

Wunderbarer Osterurlaub
Auch wir wurden sehr herzlich von Melina und Stelios empfangen. Sogar ein herrliches Essen, gefärbte Ostereier, eine Obstschale und Wasser im Kühlschrank hatten die beiden für uns bereitgestellt. Das haben wir noch nie erlebt und wir waren wirklich begeistert, nach der langen Anreise so bewirtet zu werden. Nicht nur die Vermieter auch das Haus war großartig. Man hat sowohl drinnen als auch draußen sehr viel Platz, um es sich gutgehen zu lassen. Unser 3-jähriger Sohn hat vor allem das Trampolin geliebt und die zutrauliche Katze, die uns jeden Tag besucht hat. Aber keine Angst, sie war die einzige Katze, die regelmäßig kam. Wir konnten unseren Sohn auch unbesorgt spielen lassen, da das Grundstück komplett umzäunt ist. Das Haus war mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Man braucht seine Koffer also nicht unnötigt mit Haushaltsutensilien zu belasten. Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig (abgesehen von den Hunden der benachbarten Schäfer, die immer mal bellen) und man ist schnell am langen Strand. Verschiedene Einkaufsmöglichkeiten (sogar sonntags geöffnet) erreicht man auch sehr schnell mit dem Auto. Die Strandbars hatten zu unserer Reisezeit noch nicht geöffnet, aber das konnten wir leicht verschmerzen. Ansonsten erreicht man viele schöne Ausflugsziele im Westen und Süden der Insel innerhalb von 1 bis 1,5 Stunde oder auch innerhalb weniger Minuten wie Rethymno oder den Kurnas-See. Der Osten der Insel ist hingegen schon recht weit entfernt. Wir kommen gerne wieder nach Kreta.

Perfect holiday in Crete
We had a perfect holiday in Crete. Melina and Stelios (the owner of the house) were very friendly and gave us a lot of tips, so that we could enjoy our holidays. The house is situated in a farm land area, with olive trees and sheeps. You can walk to the nearest beach in maybe ten minutes. The next supermarkets and restaurants are also not far away (about 2 or 3 kilometers). We enjoyed having barbecue and breakfast in the garden. All in all we had a nice stay. Thank you.

Schöner Urlaub, tolles Haus, herzliche Gastgeber
Liebe Melina, lieber Stelios, wir haben auch unseren zweiten Urlaub (nach 3 Jahren) bei euch sehr genossen! Das fängt an beim Begrüßungsessen (Pastitsio), dem Obst, den Getränken, natürlich mit Raki, geht weiter mit eurem liebevoll eingerichteten Haus mit perfekter Ausstattung und endet bei eurer herzlichen Betreuung während unseres Aufenthalts. Euer Haus liegt wunderschön in einem Olivenhain, nicht weit weg vom Meer und ist ideal für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen. Levi (und natürlich auch den großen Jungs) hat das Fußballtor im Garten natürlich am besten gefallen. Wir haben die Abende auf der Terrasse nach einem Sonnentag am Meer oder einem Ausflug besonders genossen. Leider sind unsere 2 Wochen bei euch schon wieder vorbei. Wir möchten uns nochmal ausdrücklich für eure Herzlichkeit bedanken und hoffen, unsere Nachmieter wissen das auch zu schätzen. Ganz liebe Grüße aus Deutschland senden Levi, Basti, Thomas und Kathrin

Perfekt für Familien
Wir hatten eine erholsame und rundherum schöne Woche in diesem Ferienhaus. Das Inserat deckt sich genau mit der Unterkunft. Ein wirklich schönes Haus, mit allem notwendigen Dingen ausgestattet. Ruhige Lage (man hört nur die Schafe und Hunde von Zeit zu Zeit) inmitten von Olivenhainen, ein schöner kleiner Garten mit einer Menge Kinderspielzeug (unsere Kinder waren jeden Tag nur schwer zum Aufbruch zu bewegen). Der Strand mit schönem Beachclub (Sirokos) ist nahe und man hat von den Dachterrassen des Hauses sogar Meerblick. Mit der Vermieterin Melina lief alles ganz unkompliziert und zur Begrüßung hatte sie uns sogar einen kretischen Nudelauflauf im den Ofen gestellt und Obst und Wasser haben auch schon im Kühlschrank auf uns gewartet. Wir würden diese Unterkunft jederzeit wieder buchen!
