"Eirini had really gone the extra mile to provide everything we might need - fruit, wine, raki, butter, eggs, toast, honey, tea, coffee and a cake, also toiletries."

Ο Κήπος The Garden: A garden retreat in Sitia with a 9.8 guest rating
Amenities
The two-bedroom house includes a living room and a fully equipped kitchen with a bar-like espresso machine. Each bedroom is lovingly furnished, and the property provides a washing machine and a private entrance. The house is spotlessly clean and stocked with courtesy items such as fruit, homemade cake, and lemonade at check-in.
Outdoor Spaces & Garden
The garden features orange, lemon, medlar, and olive trees, plus a shaded spot under several hundred-year-old trees for relaxation. Guests have access to outdoor furniture and a picnic area, and a patio with a barbecue for alfresco dining. One guest called the garden 'paradise' for its fresh orange juice picked directly from the trees in April.
Accessibility
Sitia Beach is a 13-minute walk from the property, and the town center is roughly 15 minutes on foot via back roads. Vai Palm Forest, a protected natural site, lies 24 km away. Sitia Public Airport is 3 km from the house, making arrival straightforward for travelers with a hire car.
Services
The host, Rena, provides a welcome including an explanation of the house and a lemon cake baked by Maria. Previous guests rated the property 10/10 for its warm hospitality and attention to detail, with the fridge stocked with fruit, raki, and local treats. The house is recommended as a base for exploring Eastern Crete by car.
