Fantastic house with a large swimming pool and a great garden. The location is perfect with a nice view on the sea and the sun all day long.
Our hosts have been very nice.
If you go to Rethymno, this is the perfect location

This house has everything you need. We stayed in the villa for 11 nights, 4 adults and two children. Beautiful area in a hill that over looks the sea and the village of Platanes. A car is nessesary, in this calm and quiet area.
Eva is just the best host, so helpfull and kind.
The pool in the garden is amazing. Easy access to super markets and restaurants in Platanes, just a 10 min drive from the house. I really hope we can come back one day.

This villa is simply amazing! It is absolutely spotless and so well stocked with equipment, even small items such as dishwasher pads and toilet roll! Eva, the owner, also provided some local produce to make the holiday start smoothly.
The villa is very spacious with high open beam ceilings and cool tile floors. Every window has a mosquito net, although there seem to be very few mosquitoes on Crete!
The mid-week linen change and quick clean were a lovely touch.
The views and the quietness are gorgeous and the pristine pool, tastefully lit up at night, makes an evening simply special.
Eva is an experienced and very able owner who is always on hand for a chat if needed. Nothing was ever too much trouble and my children were always delighted to see her, especially when she brought round some desserts!!
Crete is a beautiful and interesting island and villa Kivotos is the perfect place to stay.
Recommend 100%.
