We wanted our week-long stay at 1891 Home to last forever! The pictures are spectacular and yet even more breathtaking in person! It is a stunning and spacious Cretan home, very comfortable for our family of four, impeccably decorated, and loaded with charm and character with all the modern amenities. We feel lucky to have experienced such beauty. Alexandra is a wonderful, warm, and considerate host, who greeted us upon arrival and was very responsive throughout the entire booking process. She welcomed us with traditional homemade food from her mother, as well as wine, olive oil, a basket of fresh tomatoes, as well as other delicious and luscious local food, and a fridge stocked with the essentials. She provided tons of information about the house and the area which was very helpful. The walls are lined with photos of her ancestors who owned the olive mill that was beautifully converted into the home. The pool was the icing on the cake, with magical views, and provided us with hours of relaxation and fun. Kefalas itself is off the beaten path yet perfectly located, with a brief walk to the local supermarket and taverna and easy drives to tons of beautiful beaches and places to explore, and is even a doable drive to Elafonisi beach. 1891 Home will always hold a special place in our hearts and was the highlight of our time in Crete. It made our family vacation incredibly special with memories to last a lifetime. We look forward to a return visit! Efcharisto Alexandra!
