Marina’s House was built in 1965 and, until recently, was inhabited with love and care by a three-member family. The property offer three bedrooms: the Felicia with a double bed, the “Lemon tree with another double bed and the “Lavender” with two single beds, making it possible for a total of six people to sleep here. The hotel also provides a baby cot and two additional beds if you need them. There is the large kitchen and, of course, the bathroom with the bathtub and the washing machine. There is a large daily room with the armchairs and the sofa, a wooden desk and two libraries, to rest or study. The dining corner with a six-people table and the sitting room, to watch TV, enjoy a drink or spend some time in peace. The furniture was brought in by the family and they have kept it to maintain the original character and atmosphere of the house. The windows and balcony doors make the rooms sunny and bright, giving you the best that the wonderful paintings, photos and books have to offer. Marina’s House also has two beautiful gardens, filled with colors and scents. The house is in the very centre of Kissamos. Everything is nearby, and you can feel the pulse of everyday life in town.

Crete. As well as the magnificent beaches and warm seas, the size and physical variety of the island of Crete invites exploration, and Marina’s House, located at Efedron Polemiston 1941 9, Kissamos – Kastelli, 73400, Greece, is the ideal staring point. Uniquely among Greek islands, Crete’s mountainous spine creates a sense of spaciousness, a life distinct from sea and sand. Fly-drive holidays to Crete – or simply the hire of a car for some days during your stay in Marina’s House, – will enable you to seek out the rugged formations of the interior, the fertile countryside and tiny chapels filled with frescoes, the mountain villages where time has stood still. Always, the authentic spirit of the islanders, their fierce independence and pride – as well as the best cooking and most delicious meals that constitute the famed “Cretan Diet” – will more likely be found where few others are looking. With so much to see, with dolphins to watch, shaded squares to paint, olive trees and wild orchids, Minoan remains and sweeping beaches, no wonder Crete holidays and Marina’s House are revisited so often.
