We loved our time at the Villa Aktis. The house is very clean, airy, and extremely well appointed, with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and even a huge outdoor grill and dining room. There are plenty of towels and toiletries and other amenities. A huge TV that gets Netflix (not that we spent much time watching). Very comfortable beds. The large pool area is amazing to have and our family spent hours out there—it gets super hot in Crete in summer! That is the only drawback, as one of the 3 bedrooms doesn't get as cool as the others, but Katerina can bring a portable AC to deal with that. Katerina and her daughter are delightful and very helpful. They greeted us when we arrived late from our international flight and had stocked the refrigerator with fruit, vegetables, milk, juice, cheese/meat/eggs...plus there's plenty of coffee and tea, and wine. It's such a thoughtful gesture since that is always a problem on arrival when you're jet lagged and don't want to go shopping. She and her daughter texted us many recommendations for restaurants and things to do that were all great. It is even walking distance (long but doable) from town and from an "organized" beach; since driving on Crete can be a little hair raising, it was nice to have that option. On the whole we would recommend Villa Aktis very highly!
