We had a wonderful time at Nikos' place in Crete. He met us at 0300 in the morning when we arrived from London and escorted us to the villa, even though it was the middle of the night! Nikos was always attentive and available, but didn't interfere with us in any way. My partner was on his R&R from a military tour in Afghanistan and wanted peace and quiet and we certainly got that. The villa is beautiful, the views are spectacular and our hopes for a restful vacation were met in full. We had a fabulous time - we didn't see another person for days - the villa is beautifully isolated and gorgeous inside. I can't recommend Nikos' place enough - his hospitality was fantastic - he struck exactly the right balance for us and we had a wonderful time at his villa.
