Amazing would be the word to sum up this property. The villa we stayed in was set in a tranquil setting amongst olive trees. The family who own the villa are lovely, can't do enough for you and were there to greet us when we arrived. The family make their own olive oil from olives they grow themselves and it is the best we have ever tried, we couldn't get enough of the stuff. Renting a car is a must, as it's a non touristy village (which we had no problem with) there's nothing in walking distance. I certainly didn't hesitate to give a 5 star rating. The Edenbrows

Ideal location,beautiful garden,well-equipped villa and very friendly owners. We could easily visit the other parts of Crete, mini markets and shops are close to the villa (1.5-2km), the area is quiet, the house was very clean and we really enjoyed staying on the verandah in the evenings! The house is separate from the other 2 villas so we were not disturbed by the other tenants. The family lives in Rethymno and came to the villas every day to preserve the garden and the swimming pool. Notre séjour était superbe!!

we spent our summer holidays in Crete and stayed in the traditional village Pagkalohori, in one of the 3 charming villas, at Villa Athina. Initially we had hesitations about the shared swimming pool, but it turned out to be the best choice! Our children had company while playing and we have made new friends! The villa is comfortable, fully equipped, with a beautiful garden surrounded by olive trees and flowers. It's close to the beach, just 10min driving from Rethymno town, quiet. We easily visited the other parts of the island (Chania, Heraklion). The owners are very very hospitable! They welcomed us on our arrival (late at night) having prepared homemade food for us. The best holidays in Crete! Un grand merci à Maria, Nikos et Elia...
