Villa Aurora is exactly what we wanted for our holiday. It's close enough to the local town to walk but far enough away that you feel like you have your own little piece of Crete for your holiday. Other reviews mention villas blocking the view...yes, there are a couple of villas in front of Aurora but they certainly don't ruin the spectacular view of the coast! The view from the balcony is fantastic. The kitchen has everything you need for a self catering holiday and more. The beds are super comfy and the pool is amazing. The only tip I could say is be prepared for the local insects! I was bitten quite a bit on an evening but it's worth staying out for the view of the stars. We had an amazing time, Romaine is a great host and I wouldn't hesitate going back to Aurora!
