These villas are feeling more so than a place ...perched up a winding road you’ll find this collection of stone villas and their three communal pools. The decor is unique and traditional with marble sinks, stone walls, wood furnishings. There’s something magical about this place and in the month I spent there something happened to my heart ...perhaps the distant clanging of the goat bells, the prayer songs from the church, the cicadas humming, the friendly faces of George and Olga all contributed to that. This is a place for travelers, dreamers, adventures, and romantics. My recommendations are as follows: Triopetra is a beautiful beach, Rethymno is a wonderful town to wander around that’s about 30 minutes to the north, we brought a Roku which made for fun evenings at home, there’s a small taverna just down the street, very simple, very warm. The town of Spili is about 10 minutes away... you must have a car to stay here, and be ready for winding roads. Finding the villas is hard, the first time! Just go up and up and don’t make the mistake of turning right into lampini, as the road narrows and will try to eat your car!
