Crete Direct really does mean Direct - we are not a travel agency or tour operator and these are not tourist houses. All of them are very private, and offer an opportunity to sample life in Crete as it really is - they are close to facilities but not in tourist areas. If you are looking for somewhere to relax and contemplate, along with that special feeling of “living here” then one of our houses will be for you.
