Very well presented villa and pool with lovely views over the village towards the mountains. Lively cafe/bar in the village a few minutes walk from villa where we were made very welcome. Ideal to pop along after dinner in the evenings. Cheese factory in the village too - great for sampling some local cheeses - excellent quality especially the graviera and smoked cheese.Bus stop right outside villa which we used to go into Rethymo - host will let you have bus timetable - they are on time! Cost 1.4 euros each way and much easier than driving/parking. Pay on the bus.Villa is everything it says on the tin - clean and spacious. Cleaning carried out twice pw at day/time convenient to us and pool was maintained every other day. Hosts were delightful to deal with and answered questions promptly. Very professional - welcomed us with goodies and brought leaving gifts - lovely touch and much appreciated. Also, Lake Kournas not far which is worth a visit - hire a pedallo and look for the turtles! We also walked Imbros gorge which was fine and not too taxing and went on boat trip along the south coast to Loutro - swimming in beautiful clear water - stunning! All in all a lovely holiday - we will definitely come back.

The photos don’t do it justice- it’s beautiful, romantic and the outdoor areas are huge. The villa is well equipped inside and out and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this as an amazing holiday stay. The family are lovely, and welcomed us to the villa. Elisavet was contactable and quick to respond. They went over and above when my daughter’s soft toy was lost and were able to locate and return it. The mattresses are on the hard side (for my preference) but other mattress toppers by way of cot bed mattresses are available and made the beds really comfortable. The cleaning and maintenance duo were thorough, did a great job and were very friendly. The location was great- close to beaches and Rethymno town. We will be booking for next year!
