What a great week we had at this villa. We were a family of 5, all adults. The villa is excellent, well equipped, spotlessly clean, good air conditioning and with wonderful views of the Cretan countryside. Dhimitra and her family are wonderful hosts, who respond to any inquiry immediately. We came back from a day out to find the villa had been cleaned and fresh linen and towels provided, also a baked cake from Dhimitra's mother which was delicious' .
The villa is a 10 minute walk into Sivas, which is a small sleepy village, well serviced with tavernas (we ate mostly at Sactoris & Sofia, which provides great food and wonderful service from Sofia and her daughter Elisabeth), there are also 3 small shops and a butcher from which can get the essentials.
I would advise hiring a car as walking anywhere in the hot Cretan sun is energy sapping.
I would highly recommend this villa.
