Looking for the perfect summer getaway surrounded by the beauty of Cretan nature? Elpida’s House is your ideal retreat. Located in the peaceful, traditional village of Kavousi, this charming home is surrounded by olive groves and the majestic Cretan mountains. Nestled in the heart of the Lasithi region, it offers a serene escape while being conveniently close to local attractions—just a 20-minute drive from the town of Ierapetra, 30 minutes from Agios Nikolaos, and 40 minutes from Sitia. This spacious, air-conditioned home is perfect for families or groups, with 3 beautifully furnished bedrooms, 1 modern bathrooms and 1 WC with shower, complete with fresh linens and towels. The fully equipped kitchen is perfect for preparing home-cooked meals, and the cozy dining area invites you to enjoy your meals in comfort. The spacious open living area, featuring a flat-screen TV, provides a comfortable and inviting space to relax. Step onto the expansive terrace, where breathtaking mountain view await. Whether you're enjoying a glass of wine, savoring the tranquil atmosphere, or grilling a delicious meal on the BBQ, this outdoor space is perfect for making unforgettable memories.
Kavousi is a charming village nestled at the foot of two mountains, and it stands out as one of the most captivating destinations in Ierapetra. The village's heart lies in its lively square, where traditional coffeehouses and taverns create a welcoming atmosphere for locals and visitors alike. A short walk from the square will lead you to the picturesque churches of Saint Georgios and the Twelve Apostles, both of which are worth a visit for their beauty and historical significance. Just 3 kilometers from the village center, you'll find the serene beach of Tholo. This sandy stretch, with its shallow waters and tranquil tamarisks, offers the perfect setting for a relaxing and carefree holiday. One of Kavousi's most remarkable attractions is an ancient olive tree, believed to be nearly 3,500 years old. With a trunk that spans over 20 meters in diameter, this massive tree is one of the oldest in the world. Its incredible age and historical significance, particularly its connection to nearby Minoan settlements, have earned it the status of a protected monument. Kavousi is a place where nature, history, and culture come together to offer a truly unforgettable experience.
