Cormoranos Apt  (2 max), Nopigia, Crete

Less than 100 metres from the beach, this neat little oasis of 12 comfortable apartments is set in walled gardens with an inviting swimming pool surrounded by lush green lawns with exotic palms and colourful splashes of bougainvillaea.

Within sound of the sea and with a truly magnificent rugged mountain backdrop, this is a place where slowing down somehow comes naturally and a quick early morning dip, followed by coffee in the taverna afterwards, can comfortably fill a whole morning, with lunch time looming on the horizon before you know it.

Georgos and Vassilis are the owners of the apartments and both, master carpenters by profession. Georgos who is now retired likes to spend his time fishing and leaves his younger brother Vassilis to run the carpentry business, while his wife Evangelio and sister in law Maria look after the apartments.The family are remarkably hospitable, even by Cretan standards and each keep an apartment for themselves so their wives are always on hand to take care of their guests.

The apartments are all quite similar with a main entrance door leading into a small open plan living area with dining table and chairs and  a sofa . To one side of the room the neatly appointed kitchenette has a small electric cooker with 2 hobs and a small fridge. Doors off the living room lead to a tiled shower room, plus a well furnished and comfortable twin bedroom. For extra living space, all the apartments have at least two terraces with patio furniture.

For convenience of guests there is  a communal washing machine and a day room for leaving luggage and using the pool on departure day. 

A local baker also visits Cormoranos every morning so fresh bread is readily available.

Air conditioning is available in the bedroom and payable locally at 30Euros/wk

Location of Cormoranos Apt (2 max ).
Nopigia, Crete
This little village, slightly rough around the edges in a typical Greek fashion, is the perfect place for those amongst us, who enjoy the quiet life and a drink in the evening with the local fishermen, combined with days exploring the utterly unspoilt surrounding countryside. One of Nopigia's best kept secrets, is that although the beach itself is most definitely pebbly, as you enter the water your grateful feet will find soft, luxuriant sand, gently shelving out to sea for as far as you can walk! ...More about Nopigia >>
