We had a great stay! Nicos was really welcoming to us, gave us some good recommendations and the villa was lovely. Amazing view to wake up to, the beach can be popular but there’s rarely people right in front of you. It’s in a great location as there’s a few restaurants in walking distance and a beach bar on the beach, we visited it at 9pm one day where they were closing up but stayed open for us as we were staying in the villa which was lovely, great food!
We met Nicos dad a couple of times who lives next door and he was very kind and didn’t interfere in anyway. They do have a dog who was very friendly with us but might not be for everyone.
There’s also a bus stop a couple of minutes walk away which has great connections, we got it into Rethymno.
