The hosts were excellent in every way. The situation was ideal. Golden Hill was a dream holiday destination on a rugged mountain top, only six miles from Chania. The facilities were excellent and the design and layout allowed you to sunbathe or stay cool in the heat of the day all with a cool breeze coming from the west. The mountain road made nipping anywhere slightly difficult but we learned to plan ahead for shopping or food trips. The location was ideal for staying at the villa, visiting beaches or trying the Cretan gastronomic delights on offer in the beautiful port of Chania. We are keen sailors and the host Kostadinos kindly arranged a day off shore sailing to Menies beach and around Kri Kri island which was a great day out. The family couldn't have been more helpful, generous or accommodating. They left plenty of fruit on regular visits and came to clean and change linen every three days. I can recommend to any one and maybe will return myself one day
