We have a had a wonderful week in the villa, great facilities with everything you need. Good location and added bonus of a midweek clean and courtesy pass at Baja beach club. We will miss it and the visiting cats. Thank you Eleni and Etouri.

Just returned from our stay here. We were warmly welcomed by Eleni the owner who showed us around the stunning villa, the villa itself is beautifully renovated-rustic from the outside with the most gorgeous patio/eating areas and lovely inside with all mod cons and everything you would need for a very comfortable stay. I was slightly concerned about not having air con downstairs ( it is in all bedrooms) but honestly it’s not needed as the walls are so thick it keeps the area cool.We spent most of of time around the pool area which is set in beautiful gardens and has a great outdoor kitchen too. The villa is a short walk away from 3 Tavernas and we enjoyed several meals at all of them and highly recommend each one. Honestly this is the perfect place to just get away from it all and Crete is just so beautiful. Teens and adults all had a fab holiday and we will definitely come back. My daughter loved the 2 friendly “villa” cats who she named leni and Larry ☺️ They made her holiday. Don’t hesitate to book this villa ,it is exactly like the photos and the reviews say it all. 10/10 .

This was the perfect home for our family vacation and we really appreciated the easy, efficient communication with the owner and the agency before and during our stay.We would rent this place again in a heartbeat if we ever happen to come back in this beautiful region. The villa gathered every feature we were hoping for. 1. Great location: 10-15 min away from downtown Rethymno and lots of sightseeing to do within 1-2 hours drive. Several supermarkets nearby, and in Prines we enjoyed the bakery and 3 friendly tavernas within walking (or very short car ride) distance. Nice views of the Mediterranean sea from the balcony, fairly secluded feeling. 2. House is spacious, well equipped and very clean. We had plenty of space for 4 adults and 2 small kids to roam around. Of course we spent most of our time outside and we enjoyed having 2 locations for outdoor meals/drinks - one on the balcony by the bedrooms and another one downstairs closer to the pool. We stayed 7 days and there was a cleaning 3 days into our stay. Beds were comfortable and linens of good quality. Pool towels were provided. There were also a few games and sand toys that we used. There is a small dishwasher that worked great. We used the washing machine a couple times although we struggled a bit to translate the programs written in Greek ;-) We had issues with the fridge that was not cold enough - but the fridge is brand new so it must have been a problem with settings rather than a defect of the fridge. The pool was another great feature of the house. Pretty deep overall (our 7 year old was just tall enough to walk on the front end) and water felt a bit chilly when the clouds were masking the sun but we all had lots of fun playing there. The landscaping of the property and the general atmosphere of the house (stone, wood, decoration) are very pleasant and relaxing. 3. Very responsive owner: she welcomed us the first day, had a nice basket of local items waiting for us on the dining table, and was very responsive (via text or phone call) each time we needed something. Thank you for letting us stay in your very pleasant villa!!
