We cannot fault the accommodation at Villa Ioanna - our group of 11 were extremely comfortable and loved all the facilities that this beautiful home had to offer. The personal touch of having Hillary meet us at the airport to facilitate our car hire, and then be on call when needed, as well as coming personally (very early in the morning!) on our departure was wonderful. The platter of fresh fruit and wine in the fridge on our arrival was also a lovely and unexpected bonus, as was the cleaning service half way through our stay! Plaka is in a central location on the western side of the island, and whilst our group travelled extensively by car each day to explore many exceptional places including Chania, Heraklion, Elofonissi, Samaria Gorge, Rethymno as well as more remote areas (Australians are used to long drives!) we still appreciated coming home to a beautiful location and outlook each night. Thank you so much.
