We have spent a wonderful vacation in the villa. Two families (4 grownups and 4 children). Easily for three families (12 people).
The host was amazing. Very responsive, took care of all our needs and questions. My son had some medical issues during our stay and the host reacted and was willing to help immediately even though it was Sunday.
The villa is fantastic-located near the highland village of Episcopi. The temperatures are 3-4 degrees lower then by the sea which is great for sleeping at nights. The swimming pool is nice and clean. Right across the street there is an amazing taverna with traditional greek food. The owner Georgios is a fantastic host and the food was just perfect.
For your stay you should rent a car. The sandy beach is 5 minutes away and it is beautiful. The city of Rethimno is 15 minutes drive away and it has very nice old town with tavernas, bars and similar. There are lots of places to visit and the easiest way is by car.
I recommend the villa especially to families with small children.
Thanks to the host and we will come back to Crete for sure and also rent a house from DisCrete Villas.
