Starting with our family house, Villa 5 Anemoi, that has been renovated and successfully run as a holiday rental since 2008, our small family business expanded with our charming little house Lefkogia - Prevelis, right in the center of Lefkogia village, only 2 km away from 4 out of numerous wonderful beaches. Both properties are within a few meters of cafes, restaurants and a small super market which sells all the basic amenities and fresh bread every morning.Our newly built holiday cottages are located on our 20.000 sq.m. organic farm, filled with olive, plane, cypress and a rich variety of citrus and other trees.
Ou friendly animals, living in their own fenced barns in about 100 m. away from the houses, contribute to the feeling of living literally surrounded by nature and help you detox, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. A shaded kiosk right next to the pond with the goldfish, and a few hammocks and swings hanging under the trees compose enticing spots to enjoy a glass of wine, read your favorite book or just close your eyes while being surrounded by the peacefulness!
Lefkogia village in South Crete does not stand out only as an excellent starting point for excursions but also because it consists by itself a unique combination of a fetching mountain scenery, amazing beaches and fascinating gorges, all within a 5 km radius. Welcoming tavernas in Lefkogia and also in the nearby villages offer delicious dishes prepared by local products and traditional recipes. An ideal choice for those who are seeking authentic experiences out of their holidays.

The ruined Lower Monastery of St John the Baptist and the currently operational Upper Monastery of St John the Theologian.
The old monastery was probably founded in the Middled Ages and served over several centuries as a religious and cultural centre for the local population.
From there you can descend to Prevelis beach, that lays below the Upper Monastery, a beach well known for its beauty due to the Palmforest that lays behind it and also for being next to the spot where Kourtaliotis river meets the sea.
An amazing Treasure hunt all the way down to Kourtaliotis gorge.
Surrounded by the huge rocks and the wild landscape, explore the gorge’s secrets, the small church of St Nikolas, the waterfalls, the lakes created by five streams that unite their forces until they end up putting out into Prevelis beach, passing through Prevelis palm forest! Its name comes from the whistles when strong winds blow through the rocks creating a sound like “krotala”(rattles)!
