Highly recommend staying here. We were with a young baby (3 months) and a toddler (almost 3 years old) and really enjoyed the place. You need to drive to go places but this is all very doable. We actually enjoyed Panormo (25 min drive) most of all villages near the sea. There are nice options to have food delivered or have dinner within 20 minutes. We also booked a private chef and a massage at the villa, highly recommend it. Also nice other things (caves, Rethymno, Arkadi monastery, Reptisland) to do with kids around. All in all great place to relax.
