This villa was perfect for us. A lot of attention was paid to making it beautiful, stylish as well as comfortable. Every bedroom and bathroom was well furnished and very little difference between them, so it made assigning bedrooms an easy job. The living space connects well to the balcony and pool area and creates a very open and free flowing feel. Perfect for holiday living. The outdoor spaces are extensive and we (7 people) did not feel crowded. The sun set views are spectacular over the infinity pool!
Definitely need to hire a car though (The owner of the villa also owns Eurocar). The local shop is 3 minutes drive away or 15 minutes walk, sells basic groceries and holiday type supplies. The area is very rural and high up on the hills so we managed to do a few good running routes of between 3-5km.
If you enjoy outdoor living/dining, there is a portable Bluetooth speaker but we would recommend mosquito spray in the evenings.
The main town Rethymno is 25 minutes to the town car park. The restaurants are fantastic, spoilt for choice.
The host Stamatis was very communicative (texts mainly) and stayed in touch to make sure all our needs were met.
We can't fault this villa or host. Five stars.
