The Gold Villa in Armeni was a perfect property for our group of five adults. The two couples stayed in the main house and my elderly father stayed in the separate apartment at the back of the house. We were able to gather for meals in the main dining room and the large, outdoor dining table.
The location was ideal. Armeni is a small village, but there are two small grocery stores, a nice bakery, and a wonderful taverna. (Seriously, go to Alekos Taverna. It is epic!) From Armeni it is easy to visit Rethymno, Chania, the Amari Valley, and Agia Galini.
The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped, and the common areas were large and comfortable. It was a little too cool in October to use the pool, but it looks beautiful. The very best amenity at Gold Villa was the family of cats who seem to live on the patio. They were friendly, healthy, and well-socialized. If you stay here please feed them, pet them, and tell them we miss them! <3
