Ah - this place was the ultimate joy! Nowell and I were so lucky to chance across this place a day after our other Airbnb cancelled. Alex and Alessia were the most generous of hosts, a real Cretian experience and true luxury.
Every morning we were greeted with a fresh bucket of fruits and vegetables, and a welcome portion of jars of spreads and jams. We barely bought any food the whole trip just living off your generosity! We sat for hours enjoying the beautiful grounds of the apartment, which sits on the bottom floor of a grand, majestic building atop a hilltop overlooking Rethymnos. We made friends with their smiling dog and loving cat, who sat on our laps most mornings. Truly living the life!
In terms of amenities, everything was perfect, a brand new fridge, powerful shower, the best stocked kitchen I’ve ever been to and state of the art utensils, hob and worktops.
On our last day, Alex offered us a trip into town - an exemplification of their kindness, responsiveness and willingness to help us enjoy the full cretian experience. A place for loving each other and life.
