  : The villa was even better than shown in the pictures. Everything is on a very high standard and perfectly maintained. The welcoming by the owners was very warm like meeting old friends. We enjoyed the heated pool very much (about 29 degrees C). The equipment was outstandig, there was even a printer for the laptop. The hosts were the best we ever had. Communication was excellent and they cared a lot. On arriving we found a complete excellent homemade meal and a lot of treats. The garden felt like paradise. We will be back for sure.
  : Noise from the main road is heard with open windows during nighttimes. However there is airconditioning in each room, so it is not really an issue.

  : Villa was huge, plenty of space for everyone (6 adults, 2 children). 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms (2 of them ensuite) to minimize potential of conflicts :). Kitchen was equipped with every machine eventually needed. On arrival the hosts greeted us with dinner. They recently installed a playground, which can be seen from the terrace. So the kids could play during our breakfast, a relaxed morning guaranteed. The pool can also be supervised from the terrace. The realty ist complete enclosed, so no kids could ever escape. Most evenings were spent at the billardtable, was a lot of fun to play until bedtime! Also the beautiful town of Rethymno was just a 20min drive away. It's a great place to spend your evenings or even whole afternoon! Smaller supermarkets are in walking distance (10min, 15min - 3min by car), bigger shopping tours were done at the Lidl at the beginning of Rethymno (10min drive). You have to mention the kindness of hosts Thomas and Kiki. Every aspect of our interaction, from Kiki's warm greeting late at night, her breakfast for our trip to the beach or the support from Thomas prior to our journey and throughout our stay via Whatsapp and e-mail was exceptional.
  : Unless you want to stay at the villa throughout your holiday, you have to have a car. But i suppose you're aware of that, if you're looking for a villa like that.

  : The photos and description of the villa were great but to see it took it to another level, it really was a fantastic property with great facilities and great views. We were a family group of 7 and there was plenty of space inside and out for us all to do what we wanted. The villa is only a couple of years old and the design and quality of fittings are outstanding and everything seemed to be in the right place. The pool was great as were the sun loungers, the seating and shaded areas, and the garden was a real bonus with lots of thoughtful planting and colour from the bougainvillea, gaura and exotic bird of paradise. If you are a keen gardener as I am then talk to Thomas and he might have a surprise for you! Everything worked well and Thomas and Kiki were on hand just in case it wasn't. Kiki excelled herself with the welcoming moussaka, drinks and essentials, and mid week brought us some fantastic chocolate souffl cakes. All in all we had a great holiday, in a great villa with caring owners. Thank you.
  : The shops and local bars and restaurants were only about 1km away but for the less energetic like me, and for carry shopping, a couple of bikes would help. Electric bikes would be even better!!
