I booked Villa Toula for its countryside location and private pool - it was just perfect. The villa had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. We would have breakfast on the terrace at the front, then head to the pool. It's a decent size and depth. The shaded terrace area at one end was lovely for a little afternoon siesta. One day the owner brought us bread, olives and raki - what a nice touch. The resorts of Kalyves and Georgioupolis are only a 15min drive, while Chania and Rethymno are about 40 minutes. Both lovely towns, but Chania was my favourite! We had a wonderful holiday and would love to return and explore a little more of the island.
