The house is situated on a hill above "Kokkino Chorio" whose centre is 1,5 klm away. Kokkino Chorio is a popular among tourists village due to the panoramic view it offers to the White Mountains and Souda bay. House Surmelina is surrounded by new built summer houses in a quiet neighbourhood with hospitable and friendly neighbours.

Travel Details from the host -> My name is Thomas Axel Schwarz and I'm the owner of House Surmelina in Kokkino Chorio. I would like to welcome you to Chania and wish you a pleasant stay. I am German and I live and work in Germany. I am a Psychiatrist. When I was 6 years old I came for the first time with my parents in Chania for holidays. We fell in love with the island at the first sight, we made friends and every summer we used to spend our holidays here. I kept visiting Chania even when I had my own family. I've passed on my love for anything Cretan to my wife and daughter. My dream was to build my own house in Chania. I found the ideal location in Kokkino Chorio and I've made my dream come true. I visit my summer house three times per year, sometimes alone and sometimes with my family or friends. I wish I could enjoy it more often but I don't have the chance due to my workload back in Germany. When I'm in Kokkino Chorio I relax and escape my routine. The enchanting view of the White Mountains on the one hand, and of the Souda bay on the other hand still takes my breath away and soothes my soul. Let me share these feelings with you... During your stay, my dear local friend Christina, who takes care of my house in my absence, will be available to answer your questions and help you with whatever you need. I wish you an unforgettable stay in Crete.
