We had a lovely relaxing time at Villa Ammos, a perfect little house, just by the pool on the crest of a hill overlooking Rethymnon. We arrive late to a warm reception, and woke to summer sun and a fresh mountai breeze.. Close enough to take a taxi to, far enough away to be a refuge from.any crowds. The village of Atsipopolou is beautiful and laid back, with a friendly taverna just a few minutes walk. Maria and Kostas were all you might wish for in a host, kind thoughtful and a joy.. We were lazy and read books in the hammock or had breakfast on the porch. But the village is perfectly situated for trips to the beach, museum and little churches. Scuplously clean, vivid compliant, walm.and welcoming. Couldnt recommend it more highly.
