We have found a magic hideaway, a secret well kept by those in the know. In the Aspros Potamos (White River) Valley, just half a mile from the shore in the south-east corner of Crete, thirteen unique cottages, the White River Cottages, lie scattered among groves of olive, pine and carob.

Aspros Potamos is known to be the most ancient settlement in the area. The holiday cottages are located in south-east Crete, high above sea level. Pefki is famous for its natural beauty, which comprises of numerous unspoiled beaches, traditional picturesque villages, and its four magnificent gorges.

The White Houses of Crete offer a relaxing holiday in Makrigialos, southeast Crete. They provide apartments and houses close to the old harbour, sandy beaches, restaurants, and bars. It's a less touristy destination with opportunities to explore ancient culture, gorges, and mountain villages.
